While investigating high-efficiency responsive driveability accompanied by low exhaust emissions, a new concept in engine control has been developed. The method is based on the direct monitoring and controlling of combustion conditions in engines, using a newly developed combustion pressure sensor. Fibre-optic technology is adapted to this sensor to produce a high noise immunity and a simple structure that facilitates applications in automotive engines. A sensing method to obtain information on engine output, knocking or detonation and the combustion temperature from the signal of the combustion pressure sensor has been proposed. A control system for the engine and powertrain control using this sensing method has been put forth to provide a remarkable improvement in engine and powertrain characteristics.

The next generation of free-turbine engines in the 2 to 5-lb/sec airflow class will undergo vast improvements in performance and efficiency. The improvements will be achieved concurrent with overall reductions in size and weight. Effort is required at optimization and miniaturization of the engine control system to keep pace with these improvements. This paper describes a conceptual design of an advanced engine control system for this class of engine. It provides gas generator and power turbine control with torque, temperature, load sharing and overspeed limiting functions. The control system was concepted to accommodate, with minimum hardware changes, such variants as regenerative cycle and/or variable power turbine geometry. In addition, considerations for closed and open loop modes of control and fluidic, electronic and hydromechanical technologies were studied to best meet a defined specification and a weighted set of evaluation criteria.
