    Abstract: A system for allowing pumps to run in parallel and preventing back flow through a non-operational pump. The system includes a first pump in parallel with a second pump. The system further includes a check valve in fluid communication with the first pump for preventing flow through the first pump when the first pump is not operating. The system further includes a sensing valve in fluid communication with the first pump and the second pump. The system also includes a load sharing valve in fluid communication with the check valve, the sensing valve, and the second pump for controlling a system flow, wherein the system flow is provided by the first pump when the second pump is not operating, and wherein the system flow is provided by the second pump when the first pump is not operating, and wherein the system flow includes a portion of flow from both the first and second pumps when both pumps are operational.

    Abstract: In an electronic control for a variable delivery, positive displacement fuel pump 104 a flow sensor 132 provides a signal, indicative of actual fuel flow to the engine, to an electronic engine control 140, which compares actual fuel flow with desired fuel flow, and upon any difference therebetween commands an electrohydraulic servo valve 156 to position a pump control actuator 108. Fuel flow upstream of the flow sensor is bypassed in a line 196 to another section of the electrohydraulic servo valve. The electronic engine control commands a small amount of fuel to be bypassed during normal operating conditions but upon the occurrence of a transient condition, it causes more or less fuel to be bypassed back to the pump inlet.

    Abstract: A hydromechanical control system for a variable delivery, positive displacement fuel pump includes a variable area orifice metering window through which fuel from the pump outlet passes on its way to a gas turbine aircraft engine. The fuel pressures on either side of the fuel metering window are ported to corresponding sides of a spool of a pump control valve. The position of the valve spool controls the fuel flow to either side of a pump control actuator, whose movement varies the displacement of the pump. A bypass fuel flow upstream of the fuel metering valve is also ported to the pump control valve. During steady-state pump operation, a relatively small and constant value of fuel flow is bypassed through the pump control valve and back to the pump inlet. However, upon increasing or decreasing pump speed transients, the bypass fuel flow is increased or decreased in a proportional amount. In this way, improved control of the pump during transient conditions is achieved.

    Abstract: The system comprises a main fuel manifold (58) being coupled downstream of a sequence valve (28), and a plurality of main fuel nozzles (66) each coupled to the main fuel manifold (58) through a respective main nozzle shut-off valve (96). A first set of pilot nozzles (82) is coupled to the main fuel manifold (58) through the sequence valve (28), and a second set of pilot nozzles (86) is coupled to the main fuel manifold (58) through the sequence valve (28). At low engine speeds, in the first and/or second pilot open positions, fuel flows to either pilot nozzle (82, 86) through the main fuel manifold (58), and the main fuel nozzles (66) are isolated from the main fuel manifold (58) by the main nozzle shut-off valves (96). Then, at higher engine speeds, the main nozzle shut-off valves (96) are opened, and the sequence valve (28) splits the fuel flow from a fuel inlet line (14) between the main fuel manifold (58) and the first and second pilot nozzles (82, 86). The fuel in the main fuel manifold (58) flows to the main fuel nozzles (66), and the remainder of the fuel split off by the sequence valve (28) flows to the first and second pilot nozzles (82, 86).

In this way, improved transient response of the pump is achieved by the electronic control of the present invention.
