Summary

A mathematical analysis of a generalized parameter hydraulic fuel control concept is presented. An analog computer simulation was used to establish the feasibility of the fuel-control concept for jet engine applications. The simulation of the fuel control was first operated with a simulation of the J85-13 engine and then operated as an experimental control with an actual 585-13 engine in a test cell. Results obtained from the use of the simulated fuel control with both the simulated and actual engines are presented. The operation of the control is discussed, and its performance is compared with that of the normal 585-13 control.
