<p>A turbine engine (49) fuel delivery system of the type including a pneumatic governor has an electronic governor and an engine excess stress avoidance feature which disable the pneumatic governor (70) so long as the engine speed exceeds a prescribed value and an electronic control unit (45) continues to function properly. The system transfers governing responsibility to the electronic control unit (45) which controls a torque motor and solenoid valve fuel diversion line (22). The system monitors an engine (49) operating parameter such as gas generator speed (37), power turbine speed, engine output torque, or engine temperature and further diminishes fuel flow to the engine (49) when the monitored parameter exceeds a threshold value. The system resumes normal speed governoring flow when that parameter returns to an acceptable level.</p> |
