In keeping with the general industry trend of applying Full Authority Digital Electronic Control (FADEC) technology to small gas turbine engines, Textron Lycoming and Chandler Evans Division of Coltec Industries have developed and qualified a single channel control system for use on the Textron Lycoming LF507-1F turbofan engine. The LF507-1F is the world’s smallest FADEC-equipped airline turbofan engine and is the only FADEC-equipped turbofan developed and certified for the regional jetliner market. The application for this powerplant, the four-engine AVRO International Aerospace RJ Avroliner series of aircraft, began airline service in April of 1993. The FADEC employs modern control algorithms to achieve surge-free operation over the flight envelope while providing rapid transient performance and crisp handling qualities. The control interfaces with the aircraft via an ARINC 429 data link to control each engine automatically to the desired power setting with or without N1 synchronization. A simple hydromechanical backup control provides full dispatch capability in the event of a critical FADEC system failure. In addition, the FADEC includes advanced diagnostics for fault identification to the line replaceable unit (LRU) level without specialized test equipment. This paper describes the architecture, primary features, and development process of the engine control system. Emphasis is placed on the design characteristics and technical challenges unique to the development of an inexpensive control system for the low thrust turbofan market.

Abstract The main difference between controlsyn thesis approaches is the various mathematical representation of a plant or system model. The aim of the work is to represent a single channel control plant model by a multichannel one and to obtain an identical design result for a single channel multiloop synthesis method by a multichannel one. For these purposes, direct current motor model is used as an example of a single channel plant. Classical approach to design control system for that kind of plant is to describe it as a serial connected transfer functions and design a multiloop system in accordance with subordinate concept. Polynomial matrix synthesis method with Sylvester matrix is utilized to make identical subordinate regulator. By several transformations, polynomial matrix description was obtained, that describe the plant as one input and three output model and subordinate regulator as a three input and one output model. Arbitrary parameters of regulator were introduced for extended null placement.

When multiple sources contribute competitively to the noise level, multi-channel control architecture is needed, leading to more cost and time for control computation. We, hence, are concerned with a single-channel control method with a single-reference signal obtained from a linear combination of the multiple source signals. First, we selected 3 source signal sensors for the reference signals and the error sensor, selected a proper actuator and designed the controllers: 3 cases of single-channel feedforward controllers with a single-reference signal respectively from the source signals, a multi-channel feedforward controller with the reference signals from the source signals, and the proposed controller with the reference signal from weighted sum of the source signals. The weighting factors and the filter coefficients of the controller were determined by the FxLMS algorithm. An experiment was then performed to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method comparing the control performance with other methods for a tower air conditioner. The overall sound pressure level (SPL) detected by the error sensor is compared to evaluate their performance. The reduction in the overall SPL was obtained by 4.74 dB, 1.96 dB and 6.62 dB, respectively, when using each of the 3 reference signals. Also, the overall SPL was reduced by 7.12 dB when using the multi-reference controller and by 7.66 dB when using the proposed controller. Conclusively, under the multiple source contribution, a single-channel feed forward controller with the reference signal from a weighted sum of the source signals works well with lower cost than multi-channel feedforward controller.

The paper examines the issues of improving the rotor units by means of using support units with actively changeable characteristics. An overview of the known solutions related to the use of active bearings in various types of turbomachinery is provided. A closer look is given at the design and features of active radial bearings, the main elements of which are fluid film bearings. The results of mathematical modeling of active hybrid bearings are presented. The prospects of the use of this type of supports to improve the dynamic characteristics of rotating machinery, including reducing vibrations caused by various factors, are analyzed. Promising directions of development of active bearings are considered, which primarily involves the modification of system components and rotor motion control system algorithms, including intelligent technologies and artificial intelligence methods.
