Method and means for enhancing recovery of a surge condition in a gas turbine engine

摘要

A system (38) and method for directing control actions to recover from the occurrence of a surge condition within a turbocompressor includes a high/low engine power output discriminator (40). Control action is taken by the system (38) in response to both the detection of a surge condition and the current engine power output level. The system (38) selects among a plurality of corrective control actions (56, 62, 68) to best achieve a return to normal engine operation.
