Feasibility Study of an in-Flight Flameout and Engine-out Detection System

摘要

The document is the final report of a feasibility study to develop a flameout monitor for a gas turbine engine. During the course of the study, it was determined that two different systems, one fluidic and one electronic, should be investigated and tested. Both systems were breadboarded and tested on a J85-7 turbojet engine. Test results described in this document show that both systems meet contract specifications for response time and that each has certain inherent advantages. (Author)
