1 Fundamentals of Aircraft Turbine Engine Control Dr. Sanjay Garg Chief, Ph: (216) FAX: (216)
2 Outline The Engine Control Problem Safety and Operational Limits Historical Engine Control Perspective Modeling and Simulation Basic Control Architecture Advanced Concepts
3 Turbofan Engine Basics N2 N1 LPC - Low Pressure Compressor HPC - High Pressure Compressor HPT - High Pressure Turbine LPT - Low Pressure Turbine N1 - Fan Speed N2 - Core Speed Dual Shaft High Pressure and Low Pressure Two flow paths bypass and core Most of the thrust generated through the bypass flow Core compressed air mixed with fuel and ignited in the Combustor Two turbines extract energy from the hot air to drive the compressors
4 Basic Engine Control Concept Objective: Provide smooth, stable, and stall free operation of the engine via single input (PLA) with no throttle restrictions Reliable and predictable throttle movement to thrust response Issues: Thrust cannot be measured Changes in ambient condition and aircraft maneuvers cause distortion into the fan/compressor Harsh operating environment high temperatures and large vibrations Safe operation avoid stall, combustor blow out etc. Need to provide long operating life 20,000 hours Engine components degrade with usage need to have reliable performance throughout the operating life
5 Basic Engine Control Concept Since Thrust (T) cannot be measured, use Fuel Flow WF to Control shaft speed N (or other measured variable that correlates with Thrust T = F(N) Pump fuel flow from fuel tank Accessories Throttle Control Sensor Pilot s power request Compute desired fuel flow Meter the computed fuel flow Inject fuel flow into combustor Measure produced power Determine operating condition Valve / Actuator Fuel nozzle No Power desired? Yes Control Logic
6 Environment within a gas turbine Aerodynamic Buffeting 120 db/hz to 10kHz 2000+ºC Flame temperature - 40ºC ambient Cooling air at 650+ºC hours Between service 40+ Bar Gas pressures Foreign objects Birds, Ice, stones Air mass flow ~2 tonne/sec 8mm+ Shaft movement 2.8m Diameter g centrifugal acceleration >100g casing vibration to beyond 20kHz rpm 0.75m diameter 1100+ºC Metal temperatures
7 Operational Limits N2 N1 Structural Limits: Maximum Fan and Core Speeds N1, N2 Maximum Turbine Blade Temperature Safety Limits: Adequate Stall Margin Compressor and Fan Lean Burner Blowout minimum fuel Operational Limit: Maximum Turbine Inlet Temperature long life LPC - Low Pressure Compressor HPC - High Pressure Compressor HPT - High Pressure Turbine LPT - Low Pressure Turbine N1 - Fan Speed N2 - Core Speed
8 Fuel flow rate (Wf) or fuel ratio unit (Wf/P3) Historical Engine Control Safe operating region Droop slope Max. flow limit Required fuel steady state Proportional control gain or droop slope Idle power Min. flow limit Engine shaft speed Max. power GE I-A (1942) Fuel flow is the only controlled variable. - Hydro-mechanical governor. - Minimum-flow stop to prevent flame-out. - Maximum-flow schedule to prevent over-temperature Stall protection implemented by pilot following cue cards for throttle movement limitations
9 Typical Current Engine Control Allows pilot to have full throttle movement throughout the flight envelope - There are many controlled variables we will focus on fuel flow Engine control logic is developed using an engine model to provide guaranteed performance (minimum thrust for a throttle setting) throughout the life of the engine - FAA regulations provide a minimum rise time and maximum settling time for thrust from idle to max throttle command
10 Engine Modeling Steady State performance obtained from cycle calculations derived from component maps obtained through detailed component modeling and component tests Corrected parameter techniques used to reduce the number of points that need to be evaluated to estimate engine performance throughout the operating envelope Dynamics modeled through inertia (the rotor speeds), combustion delays, heat soak and sink modeling etc. Computationally intensive process since it is important to maintain mass/momentum/energy balance through each component Detailed thermo-dynamic cycle decks developed and parameters adjusted to match engine test results Simplified models generated to develop and evaluate control design
11 Engine Component Modeling Modern Turbofan Engine Ambient Conditions Inlet Fan Bypass Nozzle LPC VBV VSV HPC Fuel Combustor HPT LPT Core Nozzle Core Shaft Fan Shaft Aero-Thermodynamics Compressor/Fan Maps: PR, Corr. Flow & Efficiency as functions of Shaft Speed & R-line Turbines: Corr. Flow and Efficiency as functions of Shaft Speed & PR Dynamics Two physical states: fan speed, core speed Actuator/sensor dynamics: first-order lags Combustion delay
12 Engine Dynamic Modeling Historical Perspective Dynamic behavior of single-shaft turbojet first studied at NACA Lewis Laboratory in 1948 The study showed that the transfer function from fuel flow to engine speed can be represented by a first order lag linear system with a time constant which is a function of the corrected fan speed: N(s)/WF(s) = K/(as+1) with a=f(n)
13 Implementing Limits for Engine Control Wf Ps 30 surge blowout Limits are implemented by limiting fuel flow based on rotor speed Maximum fuel limit protects against surge/stall, over-temp, overspeed and over-pressure Minimum fuel limit protects against combustor blowout Actual limit values are generated through simulation and analytical studies R N 2
14 Typical Sensors Used for Engine Control N1 N2 EGT Exhaust Gas Temp P2 T2 P25 T25 Ps3 T3 WF36
15 Typical Modern FADEC Control Architecture Structural limit regulators All regulators produce incremental fuel flow commands Fuel flow command Thrust command The various control gains K are determined using schedule linear engine models and linear control theory Proportional + Integral control provides good fan speed tracking Fan speed regulator Acceleration/ Deceleration Combustion blowout regulator
16 Control Law Design Procedure The various control gains K are determined using linear engine models and linear control theory Proportional + Integral control provides good fan speed tracking Control gains are scheduled based on PLA and Mach number Control design evaluated throughout the envelope using a nonlinear engine simulation and implemented via software on FADEC processor Control gains are adjusted to provide desired performance based on engine ground and altitude tests and finally flight tests Specs Math Model Prob Form Control Logic Eval Good to Go Yes Spec Met?

21 Engine Performance Deterioration Mitigation Control Motivation Thrust-to-Throttle Relationship Changes with Degradation in Engines Under Fan Speed Control Throttle Fan Speed Thrust Degradationinduced shift
22 Engine Performance Deterioration Mitigation Control (EPDMC) The proposed retrofit architecture: Adds the following logic elements to existing FADEC: A model of the nominal throttle to desired thrust response An estimator for engine thrust based on available measurements A modifier to the Fan Speed Command based on the error between desired and estimated thrust - Since the modifier appears prior to the limit logic, the operational safety and life remains unchanged
23 EPDMC Evaluation Thrust response for Typical Mission With EPDMC Throttle to thrust response is maintained no uncommanded thrust asymmetry Without EPDMC
24 Active Stall Control Detect stall precursive signals from pressure measurements. Develop high frequency actuators and injector designs. Actively stabilize rotating stall using high velocity air injection with robust control. Injector Rotor Intake scoop Compressor Stability Enhancement Using Recirculated Flow Demonstrated significant performance improvement with an advanced high speed compressor in a compressor rig with simulated recirculating flow
25 Summary Provided an overview and historical perspective of engine control design The control design enables smooth and safe operation of the engine from one steady-state to another through implementation of various limits There are tremendous opportunities to improve and revolutionize aircraft engine performance through proper use of advanced control technologies
