Abstract
There is described a system and method for controlling a temperature in the subchamber of a rotary engine. At least one first measurement of at least one engine operating parameter, a second measurement of the actual value of a temperature in the subchamber, and at least one third measurement of at least one aircraft operating parameter are received. A setpoint for the temperature in the subchamber is determined from the at least one first measurement and the at least one third measurement. At least one control signal is output to the engine for adjusting the actual value of the temperature in the subchamber towards the setpoint.
