US Patent 10384791 Cross engine coordination during gas turbine engine motoring

A system is provided for cross engine coordination during gas turbine engine motoring. The system includes a first gas turbine engine of a first engine system, a first air turbine starter of the first engine system, a first starter air valve of the first engine system, and a controller. The controller is operable to command the first starter air valve to control delivery of compressed air to the first air turbine starter during motoring of the first gas turbine engine, monitor cross engine data of a second gas turbine engine of a second engine system to detect a present condition or a commanded action that modifies an aspect of the compressed air received at the first starter air valve, and command an adjustment to the first engine system to compensate for the modified aspect of the compressed air based on the cross engine data.
