    摘要: A combustion staging system includes a splitting unit which receives a metered fuel flow and controllably splits the received fuel flow into pilot and mains flows. Pilot and mains fuel manifolds distribute fuel from the splitting unit to the pilot and mains stages. The splitting unit selects and deselects pilot-only operation. Both pilot and mains manifolds are selectable for pilot and mains operation. A cooling flow recirculation line has a delivery section arranged to provide a cooling flow of fuel to the mains manifold when it is deselected during pilot-only operation. Cooling flow enters the delivery section from a high pressure fuel zone of the engine and exits the return section to a low pressure fuel zone of the engine. A controller adjusts the splitting unit during pilot-only operation to partially select the mains manifold thereby increasing the pressure in the mains manifold to meet a target fuel pressure therein.

    摘要: A fuel system for a turbine engine is provided. The fuel system includes a positive displacement pump driven by an electric motor. The pump is rotated in a first direction to deliver fuel to the turbine engine, and a second direction for evacuating fuel from the turbine engine. A shut-off check valve is open in a first direction in response to a first differential pressure created by the pump in the first direction. The shut-off check valve is biased to a closed position when the pump is rotating in the second direction. An ecology check valve is biased to a closed position in the first direction and open in the second direction in response to a second differential pressure created by the pump. The check valves open and close automatically in response to the pressures generated by the positive displacement pump in each of the first and second rotational directions. In this manner, simple, reliable valves are utilized to regulate the flow of fuel in the fuel system.

    摘要: A bypass valve (22) and vent valve (24) are connected in parallel with the normal flow path between a low-pressure fuel pump (12) and a high-pressure fuel pump (16). When a low fuel inlet pressure is detected the bypass valve (22) and vent valve (24) are opened. Gas is vented out of the fuel system and bypasses a heat exchanger (14) between the low and high-pressure pumps (12 and 16), thus avoiding the need to overcome vapor lock between the two pumps. The vent valve (24) passes gas to a drain tank (26) and then closes to prevent the escape of fuel as the high-pressure pump (16) primes.

    摘要: A turbine engine (49) fuel delivery system of the type including a pneumatic governor has an electronic governor and an engine excess stress avoidance feature which disable the pneumatic governor (70) so long as the engine speed exceeds a prescribed value and an electronic control unit (45) continues to function properly. The system transfers governing responsibility to the electronic control unit (45) which controls a torque motor and solenoid valve fuel diversion line (22). The system monitors an engine (49) operating parameter such as gas generator speed (37), power turbine speed, engine output torque, or engine temperature and further diminishes fuel flow to the engine (49) when the monitored parameter exceeds a threshold value. The system resumes normal speed governoring flow when that parameter returns to an acceptable level The system also senses rotor blade pitch to reduce rotor droop and increases fuel flow to the engine (49) when the pitch (44) increases, and decreasing the fuel flow to the engine (49) when the rotor blade pitch (44) decreases.
