Abstract: This paper covers the significant points in the theory, development and operation of a torque control system for two-cycle ambient rated gas engines recently installed by Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation. This syslem utilizes a Hewlett Packard 9100-B programmable desk top calculator as the primary controller. The inputs are: suction and discharge pressures from each of three units, site ambient temperature and a feedback from the current drawn by the output solenoids which acts as the existing clearance status inputs to the system. It functions by calculating the actual BHP at any operating point, compares this with the allowable BHP which is computed as a function of ambient temperature and sets the clearance conditions accordingly.
