A generalized modular digital computer code — TURBODYNE — is shown to be a flexible easily coded high-level programming language for the steady-state and transient performance simulation of arbitrary gas turbine engines with arbitrary control systems. The configuration of the engine and control system can be simply described by using “CODEWORDS” corresponding to the various components and processes of both engine and control systems. TURBOTRANS is an analytical tool for performance simulation of gas turbine engines with their control systems. Its modular structure facilitates additional features when required.
