Abstract: A gas turbine engine inlet sensor fault detection and accommodation system comprises an engine model, an engine parameter comparison block, an inlet condition estimator, control laws, and a fault detection and accommodation system. The engine model is configured to produce a real-time model-based estimate of engine parameters. The engine parameter comparison block is configured to produce residuals indicating the difference between the real-time model-based estimate of engine parameters and sensed values of the engine parameters. The inlet condition estimator is configured to iteratively adjust an estimate of inlet conditions based on the residuals. The control laws are configured to produce engine control parameters for control of gas turbine engine actuators based on the inlet conditions. The fault detection and accommodation system is configured to detect faults in inlet condition sensors, select sensed inlet conditions for use by the control laws in the event of no fault, and select estimated inlet conditions for use by the control laws in the event of inlet condition sensor fault.

Abstract: An engine control system includes an electronic hardware engine controller and an actuator that operates at different positions to control operation of an engine. An actuator sensor measures an actuator position, and the engine controller generates a synthesized actuator position. In response to detecting a faulty actuator, a faulty actuator sensor, or both, the engine controller adjusts the position of the actuator based on the synthesized actuator position.

Abstract: An engine control system includes an electronic hardware engine controller in signal communication with at least one engine sensor, which measures an engine operating parameter (Ycrtr_t). The engine controller generates a synthesized engine operating parameter (Ycrtr) calculates an error (ERRcrtr) between the engine operating parameter (Ycrtr_t) and the synthesized engine operating parameter (Ycrtr). The engine controller further determines a corrector error parameter (Xcrtr) and determines a faulty sensor among the at least one engine sensor based on a comparison between the error value (ERRcrtr) and the corrector error parameter (Xcrtr).
