Patent attributes
A fuel metering system includes a metering valve having a first inlet fluidly coupled to a source of fluid at a first pressure, a second inlet, a first outlet and a second outlet. The metering valve includes a slot, and a valve body movable to control an amount of fluid supplied to the first and second outlet. The fuel metering system includes a servo valve fluidly coupled to the second inlet and to a second source of fluid at a second pressure. The servo valve is in fluid communication with the second inlet and a body of the servo valve is movable to supply a fluid to move the valve body. The slot is configured to variably restrict the flow of the fluid through the second outlet to balance a force applied by a biasing member. The fuel metering system includes a fixed flow restriction downstream of the second outlet.
