Abstract

See full text

Based upon a measured first resistance, a first delta curve is selected. Based upon a measured second resistance, a second delta curve is selected. A first fuel valve position (FVP) is received from a first position sensor, and the first FVP is applied to the first delta curve to obtain a first offset. A second FVP is received from a second position sensor, and the second FVP is applied to the second delta curve to obtain a second offset. The first offset is applied to the first measured FVP to obtain the first compensated FVP and the second offset is applied to the second measured FVP to obtain the second compensated FVP. The first compensated FVP and the second compensated FVP are correlated to obtain a final compensated FVP, which is applied to a desired fuel valve position to obtain a final fuel valve position.
