ABSTRACT:
In an electronic control system, three-dimensional data sets (data cubes L11-L14) for different power-limiting engine parameters are stored at different engine ratings for setting a respective maximum engine power in relation to flight altitude (ALT), ambient temperature (DTAMB) and flight Mach number (MN) to separately calculate a maximum power corresponding to each parameter. For power reduction due to air bleed, corresponding separate data cubes (L21-L24) are stored. In a comparator, the respective smallest power reduction value is determined and, subsequently, the fuel supply is set according to that power reduction value. Under conforming boundary conditions, the same data cubes (L24) can be stored for different engine ratings. The system requires low storage capacity and low calculating effort.
