  • Partially redundant electronic control system
    Patent number: 10746103
    Abstract: An asymmetrical electronic control system for a gas turbine, which is designed to control a set of functions associated with logic input data or data from sensors and associated with output data, in particular for an actuator, the system including a primary electronic control unit configured to process the entire set of functions; a secondary electronic control unit, partially redundant with the primary unit, configured to process only a strict subset of sufficient functions to operate or start the gas turbine in an acceptable degraded mode when the primary unit is faulty; a redundant or main chain selection and switching module for selecting one or other of the primary and secondary units in order to control the gas turbine according to the operating state of the primary unit.
    Type: Grant
