ABSTRACT:
Quad-redundant signal processors in a flight control computer control valves to modulate airflow in a circulation control rotor system. The valves are arranged in a series and each valve is responsive to two signal processors. Loss of a valve occurs when both signal processors for that valve fail. A first valve, and every fourth valve in the series thereafter is responsive to a first signal processor and a third signal processor. The next valve in the series, and every fourth valve in the series thereafter is responsive to a second signal processor and a fourth signal processor. The third valve in the series, and every fourth valve in the series thereafter is responsive to the first signal processor and the fourth signal processor. The next valve in the series, and every fourth valve in the series thereafter is responsive to the second signal processor and the third signal processor. Predetermined pairs of adjacent valves define fixed rotor locations and the pair of valves at a fixed rotor location are controlled each by two and aggregately by all four signal processors. The first and second processors are in a separate chassis from the third and fourth processors.
