A Control Concept Combining the Best of the Current Hydromechanical and Electronic Technologies 740380
The AiResearch TFE731-2 Turbofan Engine Control system was created out of a recognition of engine and aircraft operating requirements in which a free weighting of candidate control components and logic was made. From this free design iteration process, which considered both conventional and advanced concepts of control, the control described in this paper has evolved and has fulfilled the in-flight operating requirements of the engine.
