JASC
Receives Order for its Active Combustion Control Valve
Originally Published, January 2004
In January 2004, JASC was awarded an order to supply General Electric
Aircraft Engines with a version of their high-speed servo valve
(HSSV). This valve is an application used to control combustion
instability in one of GEAE's experimental lean-burn gas combustors.
Several of these HSSV’s will be used to comprise the JASC
Active Combustion Control Valve (ACCV) that will ultimately be integrated
into the GEAE test engine's fuel control system. Testing of the
ACCV system is scheduled to begin 1Q04.

JASC HSSV for
the Active Combustion Control Valve |
A similar Active Combustion Control Valve has been
developed by JASC to attenuate undesirable pressure pulses within
the combustion chamber of a turbine engine. This unit has successfully
operated at 400 HZ in a gas turbine combustion chamber test rig.
