  • Apparatus for compensating for variations in pressure and flow in fuel supply systems of gas turbine engines
    Patent number: 4612766
    Abstract: A device for compensating variations in pressure and flow in fuel supply systems of gas-turbine engines comprising a pump for supply of fuel under pressure into a fuel line and an accumulator which can be connected to the fuel line as a function of operating conditions. An accumulator disconnection valve relieves the accumulator from existing variations in pressure in the supply system and serves as a shutoff valve controlled by pressure differential between the fuel line and the accumulator. The valve comprises two valve members which are connected opposite each other and are spring-loaded in directions opposite each other.
