DETECTION OF UNCOMMANDED AND UNCONTROLLABLE HIGH THRUST EVENTS

Herein provided are methods and systems for detecting an uncommanded or uncontrollable high thrust (UHT) event in an aircraft, comprising arming a UHT function, detecting a fuel flow error when an actual fuel flow minus a commanded fuel flow exceeds a first threshold, the fuel flow error indicative...

Zusammenfassung:Herein provided are methods and systems for detecting an uncommanded or uncontrollable high thrust (UHT) event in an aircraft, comprising arming a UHT function, detecting a fuel flow error when an actual fuel flow minus a commanded fuel flow exceeds a first threshold, the fuel flow error indicative of a presence of excess thrust, detecting a UHT event based on excess thrust and as a function of a second threshold, upon detection of the fuel flow error, and accommodating the UHT event.
