Zusammenfassung:An over-speed protection system 40 for a gas turbine engine 10 including a rotor includes a fuel throttling/shutoff valve 50 coupled to a fuel supply coupled to the gas turbine engine, a first fuel system interface 56 (FSI-1) coupled to the fuel throttling/shutoff valve, a second fuel system interface 58 (FSI-2) coupled to the FSI-1, a first control system 102 coupled to the FSI-1 and to the FSI-2, the first control system including a first driver A 106 and a second driver A 108, the first control system programmed with a first logic algorithm and a second logic algorithm, and a second control system 104 coupled to the FSI-1 and the FSI-2, the second control system including a first driver B 110 and a second driver B 112, the second control system programmed with the first logic algorithm and the second logic algorithm. The FSI-1 may comprise a sevovalve coupled to a shutoff shuttle valve.
