In Affiliation with Drs. Link Jaw and Jack Mattingly, Practical Aeronautics is Proud to Offer:

Analysis and Design of Gas Turbine Engine

Control and Accessory Systems

 COURSE DESCRIPTION and MATERIALS: This 4 ½ day course covers the design of engine control and accessory systems for both and engines, focusing on four key topics: 1) modeling of engine dynamics; 2) application of specific control design methods to gas turbine engines; 3) advanced control concepts; and 4) engine condition monitoring. Although principally concerned with aircraft engines, this course and accompanying text book is applicable to all air, land, and sea-based gas turbines, since most of the issues in designing other gas turbine control systems will be subsumed within the substantial challenges inherent in designing aviation gas turbine control systems.

Course highlights include:  Engine Performance and Operability  Fundamentals of Automatic Control and Engine Modeling  Engine Set-Point and Transient Control Design  Introduction to Active Controls and Advanced Control Concepts  Engine Accessory Systems and Health Management  Multiple Computer Labs

The course is based on the AIAA Education Series textbook, , Design, System Analysis, and Health Monitoring, which is provided to the participants as are course notes. The text is written by Dr Link Jaw with Dr Jack Mattingly. 3.5 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are awarded.

 WHO SHOULD ATTEND: The course is targeted for degreed engineers with background in aerodynamics, thermodynamics, mechanics, and control systems; preferably with some experience in gas turbine engines. The course is tailored for design engineers and maintenance engineers who routinely deal with sustainment of engines that employ Full Authority Digital Electronic Controls (FADEC) and hydro-mechanical controls. Attendees will return to their work with an improved understanding of aircraft gas turbine engine controls and accessory systems needed to ensure robust engine performance and operability.

 PRIMARY INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Link Jaw is currently a Fellow at Intel Corporation working to enhance Internet-of-Things compute solutions. He earned his PhD degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Stanford University and MS degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan. He received his undergraduate training in Taiwan. He also completed executive management courses at Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business Administration. He has more than 25 years of industry experience in controls, monitoring, and software, and has been awarded 10 U.S. patents. Dr. Jaw founded and was President of Scientific Monitoring, Inc. (SMI) in Scottsdale, Arizona before it was acquired by Intel in 2012. Prior to SMI, he worked for Garrett Turbine Engine Company (now a division of Honeywell Aerospace), Link Simulation, and FlightSafety Simulation.

 INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Jack Mattingly is a graduate of the University of Notre Dame (BS and MS in Mechanical Engineering) and the University of Washington (PhD in Aeronautics and Astronautics). Co-recipient with William H. Heiser and David T. Pratt of the 2005 Summerfield Award for their AIAA Education Series Textbook "Aircraft Engine Design, Second Edition". His 20 year Air Force career included 7 years each on the faculties of the Air Force Academy and the Air Force Institute of Technology. He retired from the Air Force in 1989 and joined the Mechanical Engineering Department at Seattle University. Dr. Mattingly was previously at the Aero Propulsion Laboratory in Ohio, where he directed exploratory and advanced development programs aimed at improving advanced propulsion systems. He retired from the university in June 2000 as Professor Emeritus to write new editions of “Aircraft Engine Design” and “Elements of Propulsion,” teach professional short courses on air breathing propulsion, and consulting. He is a recognized expert in gas turbine propulsion.
