ABSTRACT:
An electronic fuel control system for varying the fuel flow to a gas turbine engine during the engine's acceleration. The reference speed set point of the engine's fuel controlling governor is increased as a function of the elapsed time from engine start-up and the engine characteristics so that the engine accelerates substantially along its "required to run line."
