Integrated starter for aerial vehicle
Abstract:
Systems and methods for starting an engine on an aircraft are provided. One example aspect of the present disclosure is directed to an integrated starter for starting an engine on an aircraft. The integrated starter includes an air turbine starter. The integrated starter includes a starter air valve integrated with the air turbine starter. The integrated starter includes a controller configured to control the starter air valve. The starter air valve can be movable between a first position and at least a second position to regulate the flow of fluid into the air turbine starter. An output torque of the air turbine starter can be dependent at least in part on the flow of fluid into the air turbine starter.
