Abstract

A control and method is provided that continuously adjusts minimum fuel flow schedules in the electronic control unit of a gas turbine engine. The control and method includes the steps of generating a fuel command signal; a sensed fuel flow signal and a minimum fuel flow schedule. The minimum fuel flow schedule is then multiplied by the ratio of the fuel command signal to the sensed fuel flow signal to provide an adjusted minimum fuel flow schedule.
