ABSTRACT:
The 3-D cam utilized for acceleration scheduling of a fuel control for a turbine type of power plant is also utilized to schedule the position of the stator vanes of the power plant and to provide speed and temperature schedules for idle and maximum speed. A single follower responding to the same profile on the cam controls both stator vane position and idle speed. The stator vane and idle speed contour on the 3-D cam controls idle speed through a single linkage and readjusts the W.sub.f /P.sub.3 ratio lever to adjust fuel flow.
