Abstract

The present disclosure relates to engine buffer systems. An engine buffer system may include a low pressure supply line and a high pressure supply line. A continuously variable valve may be coupled to and/or in fluid communication with the low pressure supply line and the high pressure supply line. The continuously variable valve may be adjusted to supply any pressure between a pressure of the low pressure supply line and a pressure of the high pressure supply line to a buffer line.
