Abstract
A method of operating an aircraft may include determining, for an engine of an aircraft, a high delta T5 (MDT5) between a first channel and a second channel over a flight of the aircraft. The method may also include updating a multilevel perception neural network with the MDT5, and determining, based on the neural network, a fuel coking factor for the engine.
Claims20
A method of operating an aircraft, the method comprising:
- determining, for an engine of the aircraft, a high delta T5 (MDT5) between a first channel and a second channel over a flight of the aircraft;
- updating a multilevel perception neural network with the MDT5;
- and
- determining, based on the neural network, a fuel coking factor for the engine.
1 more element
A controller configured to:
- determine, for an engine of an aircraft, a high delta T5 (MDT5) between a first channel and a second channel over a flight of the aircraft;
- update a multilevel perception neural network with the MDT5;
- and
- determine, based on the neural network, a fuel coking factor for the engine.
1 more element
A non-transitory machine readable medium containing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- determine, for an engine of an aircraft, a high delta T5 (MDT5) between a first channel and a second channel over a flight of the aircraft;
- update a multilevel perception neural network with the MDT5;
- and
- determine, based on the neural network, a fuel coking factor for the engine.
