  • Method and system for setting power of an aircraft engine
    Patent number: 11391218
    Abstract: Methods and systems for setting a target power of an aircraft engine are described herein. A power lever position is obtained. At least one flight condition indicative of a phase of flight of the aircraft is obtained. A maximum rated power of the engine is determined for one or more engine rating based on the phase of flight. The target power of the engine is set based on the power lever position and the maximum rated power of the one or more engine ratings.
    Type: Grant

  • METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING AND ACCOMMODATING LOSS OF A TORQUE SIGNAL
    Publication number: 20180320598
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting and accommodating for loss of a torque signal of a gas turbine engine are described herein. An engine deterioration offset may be determined while the torque signal of the engine is available. Then, in the event that the torque signal is lost, a predicted operating offset may be determined. A synthesized torque signal may be generated when the torque signal is lost at least in part from the engine deterioration offset and the predicted operating offset.
