    摘要: A bleed air control system for an aircraft gas turbine engine operates in a fuel saving mode in response to operation of the aircraft in a steady-state cruise condition (215,350) within a threshold flight envelope (202,310) during steady-state engine operation above a threshold range. During operation in the fuel saving mode, a gas turbine engine compressor bleed valve (10) is closed. The rate of bleed valve closure is determined as a function of bleed valve position (12,20) and gas generator speed (26,30) at the instant the fuel savings mode is initiated. The bleed air control system is returned to normal operation in response to actual or commanded engine acceleration above respective threshold magnitudes, in response to aircraft load factor differing from a reference load factor by a threshold magnitude, and in response to the discontinued operation of the aircraft at steady-state cruise conditions, discontinued steady-state operation of the engine above the transient range, or operation of the aircraft outside of the threshold flight envelope.

    摘要: A system and method for conducting one engine inoperative (OEI) flight procedures training in a dual-engine helicopter includes a multi-function OEI training switch that is operative to initiate OEI flight procedures training by selecting one of said engines as the single operative engine for OEI flight procedures training, and a training function module that is: (1) operative to establish suppressed 30-second, 2-minute, and maximum continuous OEI operating limits for selected engine operating parameters to limit the actual power provided by said powerplant system during OEI flight procedures training; and (2) operative to generate biasing factors to control the operation of the parametric indicators for the selected engine operating parameters during OEI flight procedures training. During OEI flight procedures training, the training function module limits the actual power output of the helicopter powerplant system to the suppressed 30-second, 2-minute, or maximum continuous OEI operating limits, as selected by the pilot, while simultaneously utilizing the biasing factors to cause the parametric indicators of the selected operative engine to provide display indications to the pilot that the selected operative engine is operating at the actual 30-second, 2-minute, or maximum continuous OEI operating limits, as applicable.

    摘要: A collective detent system is incorporated in combination with the flight control system of a helicopter to enhance vertical takeoff flight operations of the helicopter. One embodiment of the collective detent system includes a collective control stick that is pivotable through a range of operating positions from a full-down collective position to a full-up collective position with one of the operating positions of the range defining a vertical takeoff operating position that provides the vertical takeoff power level required for the vertical takeoff flight profile of the helicopter, a trim switch for a conventional collective trim system that is operative to implement a trim mode function wherein the collective control stick can be trimmed in any selected operating position, a vertical takeoff (VTO) detent switch that is operative to generate a detent signal when activated, an adjustable sensor that is operative to generate a stick-position signal when the collective control stick is pivoted into the vertical takeoff operating position, a restraint force generating (RFG) device, and a modified trim system circuit that functionally interconnects the trim switch, the VTO detent switch, the adjustable sensor, and the RFG device in interactive combination. Prior to pivoting the collective control stick into the vertical takeoff operating position, the VTO detent switch is activated to generate the detent signal. During the vertical takeoff profile, the adjustable sensor detects the pivotal movement of the collective control stick into the vertical takeoff operating positions and generates the stick-position detent signal in response thereto. The RFG device is automatically operative in response to the detent signal and the stick-position signal to generate a restraint force against the collective control stick to electro-mechanically "detain" the collective control stick in the vertical takeoff operating position and to impede manual movement of the collective control stick out of the vertical takeoff operating position.

    摘要: Inhibit means prevents a store-in-cache (SIC) from requesting or receiving any line fetch from MS when a clear line (CL) command is issued by a CPU to main storage (MS).Two CPU modes are provided: (1) an initial storage validation mode and (2) an instruction processing mode. The system operator controls the first mode so that a CPU can execute the CL command during system initialization without any prior data fetch from MS. In the second mode, the CL command is executed as a component of a program instruction fetched from MS that can clear a block in main storage.In a multiprocessor (MP), the CL command by any CPU requests a line store of pad data into an addressed line in MS only after each other SIC copy directory is searched and any found conflicting line is invalidated. Line castout to MS is prohibited for a conflicting line found in a cache by the CS command, which would have been a normal operation for other types of CPU commands. After any line conflict is found for any other cache in the MP, the completion of the CL command is delayed by cancelling the line pad write request to MS. Then the IE repeatedly reissues the CL command until all found conflicting lines are invalidated. As soon as no conflict is found in any copy directory, the currently issued CL command is completed by not cancelling the pad data request to MS, so that pad bytes are then written into the line in MS.

    摘要翻译: 当CPU向主存储(MS)发出清除行(CL)命令时,禁止意味着防止存储缓存(SIC)从MS请求或接收任何线路提取。 提供两种CPU模式:(1)初始存储验证模式和(2)指令处理模式。 系统操作员控制第一模式,以便CPU可以在系统初始化期间执行CL命令,而无需从MS获取任何先前的数据。 在第二模式中,作为从MS取出的可以清除主存储器中的块的程序指令的组成部分执行CL命令。 在多处理器(MP)中,任何CPU的CL命令只有在搜索每个其他SIC复制目录并且任何发现的冲突行无效之后才将填充数据的行存储器请求到MS中的寻址行。 对于CS命令在高速缓存中发现的冲突行禁止向MS执行线路切换,这将是其他类型CPU命令的正常操作。 在MP中任何其他高速缓存发现任何线路冲突后,通过取消对MS的线路板写入请求来延迟CL命令的完成。 然后IE重复重新发出CL命令,直到所有发现的冲突行无效。 一旦在任何副本目录中没有发现任何冲突,则当前发出的CL命令是通过不取消对MS的焊盘数据请求来完成的,这样焊盘字节然后被写入MS中的行。

    摘要: A monitoring and control system for a dual-engine helicopter for OEI flight operations includes a parametric indicator operative in response to sensor signals for monitoring an engine gas generator speed parameter N1 during dual-engine and OEI flight operations. The indicator includes a rotatable needle that provides an analog indication of the current value of the N1 parameter. For dual-engine flight operations, the indicator includes a first DE indicia defining a normal operating range for the N1 parameter, a second DE indicia that defines a precautionary operating range for the N1 parameter, and a DE indicium that defines a take off power limit for the N1 parameter. For OEI flight operations, the indicator further includes an expanded scale, OEI indicia that defines an OEI precautionary operating range for the N1 parameter having a lower limit of that defines a maximum continuous OEI power rating for the N1 parameter, a first OEI indicium that defines a 2-minute OEI power rating for the N1 parameter, a second OEI indicium that defines a 30-second OEI power rating for the N1 parameter. The first and second OEI indicia in combination define a 30-second OEI operating range for the N1 parameter, and the first OEI indicium and the DE indicium in combination define a 2-minute OEI operating range for the N1 parameter. The indicator further includes a first dedicated bi-colored lamp fixture disposed in combination with the first OEI indicium that is operative in response to a first activation signal to illuminate in a first color to indicate that the 2-minute OEI power rating is enabled and is operative in response to a second activation signal to illuminate in a second color to indicate that the helicopter is being operated in the 2-minute OEI operating range, and a second dedicated bi-colored lamp fixture disposed in combination with the second OEI indicium that is operative in response to a first activation signal to illuminate in a first color to indicate that the 30-second OEI power rating is enabled and is operative in response to a second activation signal to illuminate in a second color to indicate that the helicopter is being operated in the 30-second OEI operating range. Control during OEI flight operations is provided by a three-position OEI switch assembly integrated in combination with the grip of the cyclic control stick, the three-position OEI switch assembly including a three-position select switch that is manually operable to select the 30-second OEI power rating, the 2-minute OEI power rating, or the maximum continuous OEI power rating for OEI flight operations by manual manipulation of the three-position select switch to a first position, a second position, and a third position, respectively.

    摘要: An improved flight director go-around mode adjusts the collective stick position in a closed loop to increase lift to a desired value. If the engagement airspeed is below the maximum rate of climb airspeed, the airspeed is increased towards the maximum rate of climb airspeed at a moderate rate. When the maximum rate of climb airspeed is attained, or if the engagement airspeed is at least the maximum rate of climb airspeed, and the rate of climb is satisfactory, the airspeed is maintained. If the engagement airspeed is greater than the maximum rate of climb airspeed and the desired rate of climb is not achieved within ten seconds, the airspeed is decreased towards the maximum rate of climb airspeed. Heading or course is automatically maintained when go-around is engaged.

    摘要: A branch-address translation register (BAXR) is loaded by a current or a prior control word field. A word selection decoder circuit receives the BAXR outputs and combines them with machine-status signals to generate a word selection signal for selecting a control word from a currently accessed branch group in the control store. A BAXR switching circuit is also provided so that any control word can switch off the BAXR output and cause a control word selection without translation. The invention can obtain any required degree of addressing flexibility in microcode branch selection, i.e. from partial to total flexibility.
