A fuel supply control system is disclosed having a means for determining an engine load condition based on the revolution speed of a compressor shaft and a means for determining a target speed of a turbine output shaft. The latter means increases the target speed in a relatively low engine load condition to increase an inertia moment applied to the turbine output shaft and thereby to maintain the output shaft revolution speed within a given range, even when the load applied to the engine is rapidly increased.

1. A fuel supply control system for a gas turbine engine comprising: a turbine output shaft; a compressor shaft; a fuel control valve varying the ratio of an energized period and a deenergized period depending on the engine operating condition; first means for generating a first signal indicative of said compressor shaft revolution speed; second means for determining a target turbine output shaft revolution speed based on said first signal value and generating a reference signal having a value indicative of said target turbine output shaft revolution speed, said second means increasing said target turbine output shaft revolution speed when said first signal value is below a predetermined value; third means for determining an actual turbine output shaft revolution speed and generating a second signal indicative of the determined actual turbine output shaft revolution speed; and fourth means for comparing said second signal value with said reference signal value in order to determine the difference between the actual turbine output shaft revolution speed and target speed and for determining a duty cycle of a pulse signal based on the determined difference to control the ratio of the energized period and the deenergized period of said fuel control valve to reduce the difference in order to drive the engine at a constant speed. 2. A control system as set forth in claim 1, wherein said second means corrects said determined reference signal value indicative of the target turbine output shaft revolution speed depending upon intake air temperature and humidity. 3. A control system as set forth in claim 1 or 2, wherein said target speed is increased at rate of 5% when the engine load is lower than a given level. 4. A fuel supply control system for a gas turbine engine having a compressor with a compressor shaft and a turbine with an output shaft to be driven by revolution of said turbine, which system comprises: a fuel control valve varying the ratio of an energized period and a deenergized period depending on the engine driving condition; a first sensor for detecting a revolution speed of said compressor shaft for producing a first signal having a value proportional to the compressor shaft revolution speed; a reference signal generator detecting a load condition on the engine based on said first signal value and determining a target turbine output shaft revolution speed based on the engine load, said reference signal generator producing a reference signal having a value proportional to said target turbine output shaft revolution speed; a second sensor for detecting a turbine output shaft revolution speed to produce a second signal having a value proportional to the turbine shaft revolution speed; arithmetic means for determining a difference between said reference signal value and said second signal value to determine a fuel supply amount based on said difference, said arithmetic means producing a pulse signal having a duty cycle representative of the fuel supply amount for controlling the ratio of the energized period and the deenergized period of said fuel control valve so that said turbine output shaft is controlled to said target speed. 5. The system as set forth in claim 4, wherein said reference signal generator determines said target turbine output shaft revolution speed at a first value when said engine load is lower than a given value and at a second constant value when the engine load condition is above said given value. 6. The system as set forth in either claim 4 or 5, wherein said reference signal generator corrects said reference signal value with a correction value determined based on an intake air temperature condition. 7. The system as set forth in either claim 4 or 5, wherein said reference signal generator corrects said reference signal value with a correction value determined based on the humidity of intake air.
