摘要: A system and a method for configuring at least one variable geometry mechanism (VGM) of an aircraft engine are provided. Pass-off testing data for the aircraft engine is obtained, the pass-off testing data indicative of an actual value of at least one operating parameter of the aircraft engine. Based on the pass-off testing data, at least one trim value to be used to adjust a setting of the at least one VGM to bring the actual value of the at least one operating parameter towards a target value is determined, a running line of the aircraft engine being substantially constant when the actual value of the at least one operating parameter is at the target value. The setting of the at least one VGM is adjusted, during pass-off testing of the aircraft engine, using the at least one trim value.

摘要: An adjustment ring (200) for a variable turbine geometry (100). The adjustment ring (200) comprises a disk-shaped body (210) and a plurality of coupling regions (220) which are configured in the disk-shape body (210). The coupling regions (220) are spaced apart in the circumferential direction (26), and each coupling region (220) is adapted for at least partially receiving a vane lever (140) for adjusting a guide vane (120) of a variable turbine geometry (100). Each coupling region (220) circumferentially is fully surrounded by the disk-shaped body (210). The disk-shaped body (210) on one or more of the coupling regions (220) has at least one reinforcement means (230) which extends in the axial direction (22) from the disk-shaped body (210) and circumferentially at least partially surrounds the coupling region (220).

摘要: A two-gas shaft turbine control system (31) is disclosed. The gas turbine control system comprises a fuel controller (35), which receives a speed error signal, indicating whether the low-pressure turbine wheel (11) of the gas turbine (1) is rotating at the desired target speed. The gas turbine control system (31) further comprises an NGV controller (41), which receives a speed error signal, indicating whether the high-pressure turbine wheel (9) of the gas turbine engine (1) is rotating at the desired target speed. Two cross channel controllers are further provided. On the basis of a gas turbine model, a first cross channel controller (43) provides a fuel control modification signal, which is added to a control signal generated by the fuel controller (35). A second cross channel controller (45) provides an NGV control modification signal. The modification signals are aimed at reducing or canceling the effect of mutual interaction between fuel control and NGV control. A two-shaft gas turbine engine system and a method of operation are further disclosed.
