Abstract:
A system is provided comprising: a starter air valve in fluid communication with an air turbine starter to drive motoring of a gas turbine engine responsive to a compressed air flow from a compressed air source; a manual override operably connected to the starter air valve, the manual override is operable to open the starter air valve a select percentage by moving the manual override to a detent engaged position, wherein the select percentage is operable to allow enough airflow to achieve the maximum allowed motoring speed of the gas turbine engine; and a pressure regulating bleed valve in fluid communication with the starter air valve, the pressure regulating bleed valve operable to bleed a portion of the compressed air flow to regulate a motoring speed of the gas turbine engine in response to detection of the manual override in a detent engaged position.
