Abstract
A fuel supply system for a turbine engine that provides a modulated thrust control malfunction accommodation (TCMA) is disclosed. An example fuel supply system includes a fuel supply line to supply fuel to a combustion engine, a fuel metering valve coupled to the fuel supply line, the fuel metering valve to control a flow of fuel through the fuel supply line to the combustion engine, a throttle valve coupled to the fuel supply line downstream of the fuel metering valve, the throttle valve to bleed off fuel supplied to the combustion engine based on a pressure difference across the fuel metering valve, and a controllable servo coupled to the throttle valve, the controllable servo to control the throttle valve based on a sensor output indicative of the pressure difference.
