REAL TIME LINEARIZATION OF A COMPONENT-LEVEL GAS TURBINE ENGINE MODEL FOR MODEL-BASED CONTROL

摘要

A method for model-based control of a gas turbine engine is disclosed. An operating point of the gas turbine engine is generated from measured parameters using a component-level model. The component-level model is analytically linearized by taking the first partial derivative of output parameters of each component with respect to input parameters of each component, and evaluating the result at the operating point. Components of the linearized component-level model are combined to form a combined perturbational model of the gas turbine engine, which is inverted to solve for control commands as a function of target parameters and measured parameters.A method for model-based control of a gas turbine engine is disclosed.
