Abstract
A high-pressure (HP) rotor control system includes an HP rotor and a controller. The HP rotor includes a plurality of rotor blades that rotate about a centerline axis, and a plurality of variable stator vanes (VSVs) that are rotatable about a variable stator vane (VSV) pitch axis. The plurality of VSVs are disposed at an incidence angle. The controller controls the plurality of VSVs to rotate the plurality of VSVs about the VSV pitch axis to change the rotor incidence angle of the plurality of VSVs as the HP rotor approaches a thrust crossover condition.
