Abstract

See full text

A gas turbine engine comprises a combustion system comprising a secondary annular combustor and a primary combustor in fluid communication with the secondary combustor, a secondary fuel injector associated with the secondary combustor, a primary fuel injector associated with the primary combustor, and a ECU controlling fuel delivery to the secondary and primary fuel injectors. The primary fuel injector delivers fuel to the primary combustor. The ECU allows fuel to be delivered to the secondary fuel injector in addition to the primary fuel injector only when a fuel amount higher is requested delivered by the primary fuel injector. A method of operating a gas turbine engine is also presented.
