In a gas turbine aeroengine control system, in Ch-A (first control channel), a first CPU monitors the operation of a second CPU and the second CPU monitors the operation of the first CPU; in Ch-B (second control channel), third and fourth CPUs similarly monitor each other, and when the operation of at least one of the first and second CPUs in Ch-A is found not to be normal, the output sent to an FCU (fuel control unit) is switched from the output of one or the other of the first and second CPUs of Ch-A to the output of one or the other of the third and fourth CPUs of Ch-B, thereby achieving improved CPU failure detection and realizing high redundancy and high reliability.

The present invention relates to a combustor system (100) for a gas turbine engine. The combustor system (100) comprises a combustion chamber (101) into which a pilot fuel (102) and a main fuel (103) is injectable and flammable, wherein an exhaust gas (104) generated by the burned pilot fuel (102) and the burned main fuel (103) is exhaustible out of the combustion chamber (101). A control unit (112) is coupled to a fuel control unit (105) for adjusting the pilot fuel (102) ratio. The control unit (112) is adapted for determining a predicted pollutant concentration of the exhaust gas (104) on the basis of a temperature signal, a fuel signal, a mass flow signal and a fuel split ratio.

A control apparatus for an internal combustion engine, includes: a fuel injection unit; an ignition unit; a crank angle detection unit; a fuel pump; a booster unit; an ignition discharge unit; and a control unit that controls the fuel injection unit, the ignition unit, and the fuel pump, that ascertains ignition timings based on crank signals output from the crank angle detection unit, and that performs a startup control sequence that is made up of fuel injection processing, voltage boosting processing, ignition processing, and fuel supply processing.

A method of controlling the amount of fuel delivered to an engine having at least one dedicated EGR cylinder. The method is typically performed on an engine cycle-by-cycle basis. A fueling control unit receives, from the engine's main control unit, fueling requirement data representing a current fueling requirement suitable for the main cylinders. The fueling control unit then calculates a current amount of fuel to be delivered to the dedicated EGR cylinder as a function of the number of dedicated EGR cylinders, the number of main cylinders, the current equivalence ratio for the dedicated EGR cylinder, and the fueling requirement data. With the amounts of fuel for both the dedicated EGR cylinder and the main cylinders now having been determined, the fueling control unit generates appropriate control signals to the cylinder fuel delivery mechanisms.

A control system performs a method for controlling pitching and bouncing of a vehicle having an engine driving wheels through a transmission, and having a fuel control unit for supplying a variable amount of fuel to the engine in response to fuel control signals generated by an engine control unit. The method includes, from front and rear acceleration signals, generating vehicle pitch and bounce signals, converting the pitch and bounce signals to RMS pitch and bounce values, generating a fuel offset value as a function of the RMS pitch and bounce values, and modifying fuel delivered to the engine as a function of the fuel offset value. The fuel offset value is operate don by a bi-linear gain function wherein negative values are multiplied by a larger gain and positive values are multiplied by a smaller gain.

A driving tool includes a combustion chamber, a cylinder, a valve and a control unit. Fuel and compressed air are supplied into the combustion chamber. The cylinder is configured to movably store a piston which is driven by combustion pressure at a time of igniting a mixture of the fuel and the compressed air filled in the combustion chamber. The valve is configured to open and close a passage through which the compressed air is supplied into the combustion chamber. The control unit is configured to control the valve to supply the compressed air into the combustion chamber when the control unit determines that a return of the piston is completed.

A fuel system is disclosed which is adapted to improve engine ignition properties by ensuring that, when the engine ignition is turned off, residual fuel left over in the engine area after use is not returned to the fuel tank but instead remains in a common rail injector area. The fuel system for an excavator according to the present invention comprises: a fuel tank having a fuel supply line for discharging fuel and a return line for returning residual fuel after combustion in the engine area; a water-fraction separator which is provided downstream of the fuel tank, removes the water fraction contained in the fuel that is sucked in, and consists of a hand pump that is linked to the fuel supply line and of a first filter that is linked to the hand pump and filters out extraneous material in the fuel; an injection pump which is provided downstream of the water-fraction separator and which provides an injector with a high pressure supply of the fuel, from which the extraneous material has been filtered out on passing through the first filter and a second filter linked thereto, such that said fuel is sprayed into an engine combustion chamber; a fuel control unit which is respectively linked to the second filter and the injection pump and controls the injection pump so as to control the volume of fuel supplied to the injector; and a check valve which is provided in the return line and ensures that, when the equipment is made to stop working because the engine ignition is turned off, residual fuel left over in the engine area after use is not returned to the fuel tank along the return line but instead remains in the injector area.
