These Proceedings consist of the 29 papers presented and the discussions at the 44th Propulsion and Energetics Panel on the subject of Power Plant Controls for Aero Gas Turbine Engines held at Ustaoset, Norwar -- 9-13 September 1974. The papers from six nations were divided into six sessions: Steady State Engine Thermodynamics (1 paper), Transient Engine Performance (3 papers), Control Requirements (4 papers), Control Concepts (10 papers, Simulation Techniques (6 papers), and Control System Hardware (5 papers). Emphasis was on lower mission fuel consumption, higher T/W ratios and improved reliability through use of technological advances in materials, component aerodynamics, more efficient thermodynamic cycles. Impact of high bypass ratio and multispool concepts on control requirements was reviewed.
