Abstract:
A method for controlling fuel flow to a gas turbine engine during starting includes monitoring acceleration of the gas turbine engine to determine actual acceleration value, and calculating a fuel flow rate for a setpoint acceleration using the actual acceleration value as a factor. The method further includes commanding the calculated fuel flow for the setpoint acceleration to the gas turbine engine.
