 |
A self contained metering unit consisting primarily of pumping, controlling, valving, and/or governing components. It is designed for regulating the delivery of fuel into the main fuel system of a turbine engine.
Additional Information for Turbine Engine Main Fuel Control
A turbine engine main fuel control is a device that regulates the flow of fuel to the combustion chamber of a turbine engine. It is responsible for maintaining the correct fuel-to-air ratio for efficient and safe engine operation.
The main fuel control receives inputs from various engine sensors, such as the throttle position, engine speed, and temperature sensors. Based on these inputs, it adjusts the fuel flow to ensure optimal engine performance.
The main fuel control also incorporates safety features to prevent engine damage. For example, it may include a fuel cutoff feature that shuts off the fuel supply in the event of an engine overspeed or other abnormal conditions.
Overall, the turbine engine main fuel control plays a critical role in controlling the fuel flow and maintaining the proper operation of a turbine engine.
