fadec is the main controller of gas turbine engine like fuel supply etc and also fadec senses every action and of A/c.

FADEC means "full authority digital engine control." A FADEC takes total control of the engine, not allowing the pilot to do anything but tell the FADEC to make the engine go faster or slower. Now here's the problem: when all the sensors feeding data to the FADEC are working properly, this is a great system but if one or more sensors feeds bad data to the FADEC, the system is more than happy to put the engines in a mode that will cause the plane to fly straight into the ground...which has happened on Airbuses.
It is possible to get a plane that doesn't have a FADEC system, but they're getting rarer.

What are the advantages of free turbine engine over gas turbine engine?
A gas turbine engine will usually yield more power by weight than a piston engine. Main downside is that it can't be throttled very well. Energy efficiency isn't all that good to start with, and will drop right down if it has to be operated outside its optimum range.
What is the difference between a Gas turbine engine and a piston engine?
a compressor does work on the gas , raising its pressure and temperaturea turbine does the reverse , it expands the gas as it passes through the turbine, extracting energy from the gas to do mechanical work.For a typical jet engine , the flow track on a compressor is of a converging cross section while is it diverging for the turbine, which is as per gas dynamic laws.The Turbine does two things here in the jet engine, one ,it runs the compressor and two, expands the gas to the propelling nozzle which produces thrust by accelerating the gas upto its exit.
What is a CIT sensor?
Compressor Inlet Temperature sensorfor a Gas turbine engine.
What is the cooling system of gas turbine blade?
In order to enhance creep life of gas turbine blade, it is required to keep blade at lower temperature, hence internal cooling of blade is done.
The function of a gas turbine compressor?
The compressor on a gas turbine and other jet engine types takes the air around us at normal pressures, and compresses it to much higher pressures and temperatures. Like the compression stroke on a internal combustion engine, the incoming air needs to be at extreeme pressures for the engine to be efficient.
What is the difference between fedec and eec in gas turbine engine?
It's actually fadec (full authority digital engine control)
What is the difference between a Gas turbine engine ignition system and a piston engine ignition system?
Main difference is that in a gas turbine, combustion is continuous. In a piston engine, combustion is pulsed.

What kind of engine is a jet engine?
Gas Turbine.
Why did they change the name of the gas turbine to the jet engine?
They use both terms. A turbine engine that's being used in an aircraft is a "jet engine," and a turbine engine that's being used in a ground-based application is a "gas turbine." Sometimes it's the same engine--the Lycoming engine used in the CH-47 as a "jet engine" is also used in the M-1 tank as a "gas turbine."
Is the Chevrolet Volt really an all-electric car it's been around that it has a gas turbine engine as well?
the Chevrolet volt is a series hybrid car.it mainly runs on battery power.the battery is charged by the regenerative braking and the gas turbine engine.when the battery power is low,the gas turbine engine is switched on.the gas turbine engine is connected to a generator which produces electricity to charge the low powered batteries.the gas turbine engine does not power the car direcly,it just produces electricity. The Chevy Volt has a 1.4 liter 84 h.p. internal combustion gasoline engine that requires premium fuel. it is not a gas turbine engine.
What is used to turn a generator?
A handle, a pair of pedals, a treadmill, a water mill, a petrol engine, a diesel engine, a wind turbine, a steam turbine, a gas turbine.
What is the differences between gas turbine and turbine engine?
That depends on what you are thinking of. Gas turbine usually refers to all types of jet engines and engines that use the 'jet engine' concept. The turbine engine you are thinking of could be one of a few things, like a jet engine for military aircraft, turboprop, or turbofan for commercial engines.
What is n2 aviation?
2nd stage temperature of a gas turbine engine.
How do you use the word turbine in a sentence?
My dadd uses turbine to heat the gas of hiss engine after he stopped at the gas stop and didn't find any gas left. ( This may be a weird looking sentence for turbine,but at least I got an A on it. )

What gas is used to turbo the cars?
Turbo chargers are driven by the exhaust gases exiting the engine - engine exhaust drives a turbine in the exhaust system which, in turn, turn the turbo compressor.
