  • SECONDARY FUEL FLOW DEMAND FUEL PUMPING SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20210079848
    Abstract: A fuel system for a gas turbine engine includes a main fuel pump generating a main fuel flow into a main fuel passage and a secondary pump generating a secondary fuel flow into a secondary flow passage. A first control valve is disposed in a passage between the main fuel passage and the secondary flow passage. The first control valve selectively directs an excess portion of the main fuel flow to the secondary flow passage to provide at least a portion of the secondary fuel flow.

  • Image label updating device using serially connected modules
    Patent number: 5023810
    Abstract: A device for making adjustments to the label values of objects within an image being processed. The device, which receives a train of digital signals, identifies signal values within the train which are to be modified, and makes the appropriate modifications. The device comprises a multiple-route shift register arrangement which receives the train of signals and compares these values of each with a series of `to be corrected` values and, on detection of correspondence, replaces them with `correction` values in a third series.
