Design of the Electronic Engine Control Unit Performance Test System of Aircraft

Abstract

In this study, a real-time engine model and a test bench were developed to verify the performance of the EECU (electronic engine control unit) of a turbofan engine. The target engine is a DGEN 380 developed by the Price Induction company. The functional verification of the test bench was carried out using the developed test bench. An interface and interworking test between the test bench and the developed EECU was carried out. After establishing the verification test environments, the startup phase control logic of the developed EECU was verified using the real-time engine model which modeled the startup phase test data with SIMULINK. Finally, it was confirmed that the developed EECU can be used as a real-time engine model for the starting section of performance verification.
