ABSTRACT:
A dual rotor gas generator of a gas turbine generator is fired with fuel delivery based on a fuel demand signal. Actual air flow is determined by sensing the low pressure rotor speed. A ratio of the fuel demand and actual air flow is calculated. Actual fuel flow is not used. Loss of flame is detected based on a fuel/air ratio as compared to a preselected value.
