Abstract

See full text

If the fan of a ducted fan gas turbine engine is damaged, the power output of the engine may not be sufficient for a given throttle setting. The present invention provides a control system which detects fan damage and ensures that there is sufficient fuel flow to the engine to ensure that the overall engine power output is consistent with that commanded by the throttle setting.
