Abstract

A method for operating a gas turbine engine during flight operation of the gas turbine engine in an aircraft may include measuring a gas temperature downstream of the combustor using a plurality of temperature measurement devices circumferentially disposed about an engine centerline and varying the output of at least one fuel injector in a first direction and the output of at least another fuel injector in a second direction, while maintaining a thrust output of the gas turbine engine during the flight operation. A gas turbine engine may include temperature measurement devices circumferentially disposed about an engine centerline and a system configured for varying the output of at least one fuel injector in a first direction and the output of at least another fuel injector in a second direction, while maintaining a power output of the gas turbine engine. Other embodiments include apparatuses, systems, devices, hardware, methods, and combinations for gas turbine engines.
