Electronic Control System Information

To meet the actual application requirements for the diesel–natural gas dual-fuel engine refit, a new electronic control system for the dual-fuel engine is developed in the study. Specifically, an active mode switching board is developed to achieve flexible switching between the pure diesel mode and dual-fuel mode. A diesel nozzle physical simulator is developed to ensure that the original diesel electronic control unit does not trigger fault alarm when engine works in the dual-fuel mode. Moreover, a dual-fuel electronic control unit, which uses the high-speed and multicore TMS320F28M35 as its microcontroller unit, is additionally developed on the basis of the original diesel electronic control unit. The peak and hold current shape for the diesel nozzle is intelligently controlled by the software program in C2000 core. Experiments reveal that the developed electronic control system can select a proper working mode according to the engine operation condition and smoothly switch the working mode without any fault alarms.

Woodward gas turbine electronic control platforms are purpose built for turbine control with deterministic performance and flexible I/O options.

Woodward, a pioneer in the development of electronic turbine controls, has evolved in the area of hardware and software platforms to offer the latest hardware technology, software programming/simulation, communication alternatives and harsh environment alternatives. As an independent controls company that also serves the industrial engine and power management markets, Woodward integrates technologies from adjacent markets to offer proven, low cost solutions. We feature a full software toolchain that integrates with other software environments such as MATLAB-Simulink. Proprietary turbine control algorithms are available and allow for advanced control and protection, making sure your turbine is running with the highest level of performance and availability.

Woodward also works with leading OEMs to develop advanced methods for maintaining consistent performance across a wide range of fuels. In addition, our expertise in fuel systems, actuation, and combustion allows us to provide systems level support to drive stable performance over a wide load range.

Woodward Control Support, Service and Upgrades   

Woodward’s strong commitment to customer support drives us to ensure controls can be supported, serviced, and upgraded to minimize installation, commissioning, and downtime. Oftentimes, the software can be directly transferred from an older to the latest control platform without significant modifications.

Tightening emissions standards, cost pressures, and dispersed application requirements have resulted in a more challenging business climate for the industrial gas engine industry. To meet these demands, Woodward offers comprehensive energy control system solutions for every size, type, and application of industrial gas engine made.

From the smallest spark-ignited engine in mobile equipment to the largest gas engine in power and compression applications, Woodward offers a tightly integrated control system solution that perfectly matches the requirements.

Based on four core technologies? Fuel and Air Delivery, Combustion Control, Electronic Controls and Software, and Systems Integration? Woodward system solutions are designed to maximize your engines' fuel economy and efficiency, and reduce engine emissions.

Woodward air-fuel ratio control solutions combine electronic control systems with valve, actuation, and gas mass flow metering technology into a highly-integrated solution for industrial gas engines. The control solutions are used on many modern gas engine applications in the gas compression and power generation market.
