| Summary: | In order to realize the rapid response control for turboshaft engine during the process of variable rotor speed, the linear quadratic Gaussian with loop transfer recovery (LQG/LTR) control method for turboshaft engine based on torsional vibration suppression is proposed. Firstly, the two-speed dual clutch transmission model is applied to realize the variable rotor speed of helicopter. Then, based on the state variable model of turboshaft engine, the proper LQG/LTR controller is available. In order to eliminate the limitation of low-order torsional vibration on the bandwidth of LQG/LTR controller, a frequency-domain analysis method for the effect of torsional vibration suppression on LQG/LTR controller performance is developed. Finally, the numerical simulation is conducted to verify the LQG/LTR control for turboshaft engine with variable rotor speed based on torsional vibration suppression. The results show that the bandwidth of the LQG/LTR control loop can increase by 2–3 times under torsional vibration suppression. Meanwhile, when the rotor speed varies continuously by 40%, the overshoot and sag of the power turbine speed can decrease to less than 2% through LQG/LTR controller based on torsional vibration suppression, which achieves the rapid response control of the turboshaft engine. |
