摘要: A system for motoring a gas turbine engine of an aircraft is provided. The system includes an air turbine starter, a starter air valve operable to deliver compressed air to the air turbine starter, and a controller. The controller is operable to control motoring of the gas turbine engine, detect a fault condition that prevents the controller from maintaining a motoring speed below a threshold level, and command a mitigation action that reduces delivery of the compressed air to the air turbine starter based on detection of the fault condition.

摘要: A system is provided for alternating starter use during multi-engine motoring in an aircraft. The system includes a first engine starting system of a first engine and a controller. The controller is operable to coordinate control of the first engine starting system to alternate use of power from a power source relative to use of the power by one or more other engine starting systems of the aircraft while maintaining a starting spool speed of the first engine below a resonance speed of the starting spool during motoring of the first engine.

摘要: The invention relates to a method for starting an aircraft turboshaft engine, said turboshaft engine comprising a combustion chamber, a compressor shaft on which a compressor wheel is mounted to feed compressed air to said combustion chamber, at least one starter connected to said shaft so as to provide it with a specified starting torque for driving it in rotation. The method comprises accelerating the compressor shaft during a first start-up phase, then stabilizing the rotational speed of the compressor shaft during a second start-up phase. During acceleration of the compressor shaft, the rotational speed of the shaft is regulated such that the acceleration of the shaft remains substantially constant.

摘要: A dual-use air turbine system for a gas turbine engine of an aircraft is provided. The dual-use air turbine system includes a variable area air turbine mechanically linked to a spool of the gas turbine engine through a multi-speed gear set. The dual-use air turbine system also includes a plurality of valves in pneumatic ducting operable to direct an engine start air flow through an inlet of the variable area air turbine and drive rotation of the spool during an engine start mode of operation. The valves are further operable to direct an engine bleed air flow from a compressor section of the gas turbine engine through the inlet of the variable area air turbine and drive rotation of the spool during an environmental control system active mode of operation.

摘要: Aspects of the invention generally provide a heat engine system and a method for activating a turbopump within the heat engine system during a start-up process. The heat engine system utilizes a working fluid circulated within a working fluid circuit for capturing thermal energy. In one exemplary aspect, a start-up process for a turbopump in the heat engine system is provided such that the turbopump achieves self-sustained operation in a supercritical Rankine cycle. Bypass and check valves of a start pump and the turbopump, a drive turbine throttle valve, and other valves, lines, or pumps within the working fluid circuit are controlled during the turbopump start-up process. A process control system may utilize advanced control techniques of the control sequence to provide a successful start-up process of the turbopump without over pressurizing the working fluid circuit or damaging the turbopump via low bearing pressure.

摘要: A power electronics module is provided having one or more power converter semiconductor components. The power electronics module further has a substrate having a first surface to which the one or more components are mounted, and having an opposing second surface from which project a plurality of heat transfer formations for enhancing heat transfer from the substrate. The power electronics module further has a coolant housing which sealingly connects to the substrate to form a void over the heat transfer formations of the second surface. The coolant housing has an inlet for directing a flow of an electrically insulating coolant into the void and an outlet for removing the coolant flow from the void, whereby heat generated during operation of the one or more components is transferred into the coolant flow via the substrate.

摘要: A system and method for rapid pressurization of a motor compartment and cooling system during a shutdown, a surge, and/or other situations in which the suction pressure significantly varies. A motor/compressor arrangement includes a seal gas system fluidly communicating with the motor compartment via a motor pressurization line, with the outlet of the compressor, and with a shaft seal. A motor pressurization valve is coupled to the motor pressurization line and a controller is configured to open the motor pressurization valve at start-up of the motor-compressor to supply seal gas to the motor compartment and to pressurize the motor compartment when a difference between the seal gas supply pressure and the suction pressure is indicative of the seal gas supply pressure being insufficient.
