Class Description

General governor with frequency-dependent fuel flow limit. This model is a modification of the GovCT1 model in order to represent the frequency-dependent fuel flow limit of a specific gas turbine manufacturer.

Attributes

Name Type Description
tpelec Seconds Electrical power transducer time constant (Tpelec) (>= 0). Typical value = 2,5.
tsa Seconds Temperature detection lead time constant (Tsa) (>= 0). Typical value = 0.
tsb Seconds Temperature detection lag time constant (Tsb) (>= 0). Typical value = 50.
vmax PU Maximum valve position limit (Vmax) (> GovCT2.vmin). Typical value = 1.
vmin PU Minimum valve position limit (Vmin) (< GovCT2.vmax). Typical value = 0,175.
wfnl PU No load fuel flow (Wfnl). Typical value = 0,187.
wfspd Boolean Switch for fuel source characteristic to recognize that fuel flow, for a given fuel valve stroke, can be proportional to engine speed (Wfspd).
true = fuel flow proportional to speed (for some gas turbines and diesel engines with positive displacement fuel injectors)
false = fuel control system keeps fuel flow independent of engine speed.
Typical value = false.
aset Float Acceleration limiter setpoint (Aset). Unit = PU / s. Typical value = 10.
db PU Speed governor deadband in PU speed (db). In the majority of applications, it is recommended that this value be set to zero. Typical value = 0.
dm PU Speed sensitivity coefficient (Dm). Dm can represent either the variation of the engine power with the shaft speed or the variation of maximum power capability with shaft speed. If it is positive it describes the falling slope of the engine speed verses power characteristic as speed increases. A slightly falling characteristic is typical for reciprocating engines and some aero-derivative turbines. If it is negative the engine power is assumed to be unaffected by the shaft speed, but the maximum permissible fuel flow is taken to fall with falling shaft speed. This is characteristic of single-shaft industrial turbines due to exhaust temperature limits. Typical value = 0.
