Digital Electronic Control of a Small Turbojet Engine - MPM 20

Small turbojet engines represent a special class of turbine driven engines. They are suitable for scientific purposes and research of certain thermodynamic processes ongoing in turbojet engines. Moreover such engines can be used for research in the area of alternative fuels and new methods of digital control and measurement. Our research, which is also presented in this article, is headed toward these aims. We evaluate and propose a system of digital measurement of a particular small turbojet engine - MPM 20. Such engine can be considered as highly non-linear large scale system. According to obtained data and experiments we propose different model models of the engine and design of situational control algorithms for the engine with use of certain methods of artificial intelligence as new methods of control and modeling of large scale systems.
