Application of real-time engine simulations to the development of propulsion system controls
1975
The development of digital controls for turbojet and turbofan engines can be facilitated by the use of real-time computer simulations of the engines. The engine simulation provides a 'test-bed' for evaluating new control laws and for checking and 'debugging' control software and hardware prior to engine testing. This paper describes the development and use of real-time, hybrid computer simulations of the Pratt & Whitney TF30-P-3 and F100-PW-100 augmented turbofans in support of a number of controls research programs at the Lewis Research Center. The role of engine simulations in solving the propulsion systems integration problem is also discussed.
