Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling a fluid-based system are disclosed. The systems and methods may include generating a model output using a model processor, processing a model input vector and setting a model operating mode, and setting dynamic states of the model processor, the dynamic states input to an open loop model based on the model operating mode. Synthesized parameters are generated as a function of the dynamic states and the model input vector based on a series of utilities, where at least one of the utilities is a configurable utility including one or more sub-utilities. An estimated state of the model is determined based on at least one of a prior state and the synthesized parameters. An actuator associated with the control device is directed as a function of a model output, where the model output includes an estimated thrust value for the control device.

Abstract: A system includes a gas turbine engine and a controller operable to determine a closing threshold with respect to an upper limit and an opening threshold with respect to a lower limit of a movement range of an effector of the gas turbine engine based on an on-board model, where the upper limit and the lower limit are defined for a target parameter of the gas turbine engine. The controller determines a projected state of the target parameter absent a correction command to the effector, applies a closing correction to the effector based on determining that the projected state of the target parameter would result in being above the closing threshold, and applies an opening correction to the effector based on determining that the projected state of the target parameter would result in being below the opening threshold.
