摘要

A gas turbine engine comprising a compressor section, a combustion section downstream of the compressor section, a turbine section downstream of the combustion section, a casing, an electronic control box, and a dual-architecture card mounted in the electronic control box. The casing surrounds the compressor section, combustion section and turbine section while the electronic control box is mounted on the casing. The electronic control box controls and monitors operation of the engine. The dual-architecture card includes an open architecture section and a closed architecture section, with the open architecture section including a microserver.
