Abstract

808,419. Gas turbine plant. LUCAS (INDUSTRIES) Ltd., J. June 25, 1956 [June 23, 1955], No. 18164/55. Class 110 (3). [Also in Group XXIX] A liquid fuel control means for an aircraft jet-propulsion or turbine engine having a barometrically controlled throttle a in series with a manually operable throttle r in a main fuel passage c, comprises a passage v by-passing the throttles between the inlet and outlet of passage c and containing a restricted orifice w, a third throttle 7 connected to the manual throttle, and a servo-control valve 12 actuated in response to the pressure difference across the third throttle or the orifice, for controlling a servo mechanism adjusting the rate of supply of fuel by a pump (not shown) to the combustion chamber of the engine. An evacuated bellows n and a bellows o exposed to atmosphere actuate a hinged valve j controlling a leak-off from a cylinder b supplied with pressure from the by-pass via a restriction h whereby the pressure in chamber b positions the piston and valve a, follow-up between the valves a, being through the spring p. Thus valve a closes the main passage as atmospheric pressure falls with increasing altitude. The bellows 2 actuating a valve 12 controlling the leak off from the spring-loaded side of a piston (not shown) connected to passage 11 and supplied with pressure on the unloaded side and both sides being connected through a throttle, is exposed to the pressure difference across the throttle 7 controlling the end of the by-pass passage in the same way as the manual valve r, to which it is connected at 8, controls the main fuel passage t. If the bellows 2 is connected across the orifice w the valve 7 controls oppositely to valve r. Increase of pressure difference across throttle 7 moves the piston to reduce the delivery from a variable delivery pump, throttles the delivery or opens a valve by-passing the pump. In another embodiment the manual throttle r is placed upstream of the throttle a.
