Abstract

1394856 Gas turbine engine fuel systems TELEDYNE INDUSTRIES Inc 13 July 1972 32798/72 Heading F1G The invention relates to a fuel control system for a gas turbine engine of the type in which fuel is discharged into the combustion chamber from a chamber 18 in the turbine shaft 12 by centrifugal action. The chamber 18 is formed at one side with a fuel inlet opening 32 which is controlled by an axially movable valve member 40, the fuel passing from a pressurized fuel tank 46 through line 48 to a chamber 44 formed by a stationary casing 36, flow of fuel from the chamber being controlled by the axial position of the valve 40. Fuel is discharged from the shaft chamber 18 through orifices 22 to the combustion chamber 24. The valve member 40 is formed with a screwed stem 58 with which engages a nut member 72 which is driven by the rotary member 76 of an electric motor 60 to which current is supplied under control of electronic computer 82, to which signals representing power lever setting 128 and actual engine speed 132 are supplied. Current is supplied to the computer at 130 from an alternator 118 which comprises a rotor 120 mounted on the turbine shaft 12 and a stator member 126 mounted on the stator casing 36. A device 92 is provided to sense the position of the valve member 40, the resulting signal being fed back to the computer. A limit stop 104 is provided to limit the closing movement of the valve member 40. Other engine parameters may be fed into the computer as indicated.
