ABSTRACT:
Improved turbine speed controlling valve operation is provided through the accumulation for direct entry into a digital computer of a count of displacement pulses generated by incremental rotation of the turbine output shaft. The digital computer is operative to position the control valves in response to the speed of rotation of the output shaft calculated either as a function of the number of pulses accumulated in a predetermined interval or the time required to accumulate a preselected count, depending upon the operating point of the turbine. The accumulation of displacement pulses can be inhibited while the time measurement is being read to avoid errors in measurement.Resumption of the accumulation of displacement pulses and the measurement of time is synchronized to preserve accuracy.
