Abstract
A flow control system () includes a fuel passage network () that has first () and second () network portions that are in a parallel flow arrangement with each other. A fueldraulic device () is located in the first network portion. Operation of the fueldraulic device varies flow through the first network portion. A flow restriction orifice () is located in the fuel passage network and is arranged in series with, and upstream of, the fueldraulic device. The flow restriction orifice is operable to generate a pressure differential that varies responsive to the flow through the first network portion. A flow control valve () is located in the second network portion. The flow control valve is operable responsive to the pressure differential across the flow restriction orifice to control flow through the second network portion.
