    摘要: The existence of autorotation of a load (e.g., a helicopter rotor system) coupled to the free turbine of a gas turbine engine is determined and a signal indicative thereof enables an integrator which, upon autorotation, integrates rate-based recovery anticipation provided thereto, the integrator output providing a time-composite bias signal to the main control portion of the engine fuel control to increase the speed of the gas generator of the engine in anticipation of rotor reengagement with the free turbine. The amount of recovery error is determined from the rotor speed error and is multiplied with the integrator output, the product being fed, upon completion of autorotation recovery, to the integrator input whose output now provides a controlled removal of the bias signal from the main control portion so as to minimize transients induced therein.

    摘要: A engine control system for helicopters and the like in which free turbine speed is isochronously controlled by a more robust control system having increased bandwidth due to loop architecture and filter implementation accomplished via closed loop control. Dual notch (feedback compensation) is used with design forward path compensation, including variable lead/position of the lead, variable gain and implementation of integrator/proportional. Superior transient control is achieved by the use of a multi-loop governing design using different error compensations when on "NF" loop control and when not on "NF" loop control, and with "bumpless" inner loop reference by the combination of compensation switching and re-initialization of a common integrator. Parallel select logic with dynamic compensation is used separating the system control loops and the selection process of the controlling functions, as they pertain to the application of control loops designed form small signal stability to large transients. A torque loop limitation as a direct function of the speed loop gains provides a predetermined limit to the governed speed excursion in the event of an in-range failure of the torque signal, or an unannounced fail fix on one engine or system of the twin engine application.

    摘要: A method for suppressing arc formation during an electrosurgical tissue treatment procedure includes the steps of supplying pulsed current from an energy source to tissue and measuring the pulsed current supplied from the energy source. The method also includes the steps of comparing an instantaneous measured pulse to a predetermined threshold and controlling the pulsed current supplied from the energy source based on the comparison between the instantaneous measured pulse and the predetermined threshold.
