  • Publication number: 20050254948
    Abstract: An aircraft control system includes a propeller governor in which a motor is used to apply a compression force on a speeder spring, and a turbocharger in which a motor is used to actuate a needle valve associated with a diaphragm cell. An electronic control unit may be used to control the motor in the propeller governor and the motor in the turbocharger. The integration of the propeller governor and the turbocharger into a single control system decreases the number of individual adjustments that must be performed manually by the pilot.

  • Patent number: 6938418
    Abstract: An aircraft control system includes a propeller governor in which a stepper motor is used to apply a compression force on a speeder spring, and a turbocharger in which a stepper motor is used to actuate a needle valve associated with a diaphragm cell. An electronic control unit may be used to control the stepper motor in the propeller governor and the stepper motor in the turbocharger. The integration of the propeller governor and the turbocharger into a single control system decreases the number of individual adjustments that must be performed manually by the pilot.
