Abstract
An F100 augmented turbofan engine equipped with a digital electronic engine control (DEEC) system has recently completed a flight evaluation at the NASA Ames Research Center's Dryden Flight Research Facility (DFRF). This engine was equipped with a specially modified augmentor to to provide improve steady-state and transient augmentor capability, particularly in the upper left hand corner (ULHC) of the flight envelope where the standard F100 has limited capability. The combination of the DEEC and the modified augmentor was evaluated in the sea level and altitude facility tests and then in four different flight phases in an F-15 airplane. This paper describes the augmentor configuration, logic, and test results. An overall description of the DEEC, the test engine, and the test procedures was presented in previous papers.
