System and method for engine speed measurement
11614456 · 2023-03-28 · ·

A system and method for measuring a speed of an engine are provided. The engine has a positive displacement pump drivingly connected to a rotor shaft thereof, the pump having an inlet for receiving a fluid supply and an outlet for outputting pressurized fluid. A sensor signal is received from a pressure sensing device provided at an inlet of the pump, the sensor signal comprising a series of periodic oscillations. A frequency of the oscillations is determined, the frequency proportional to a rotational speed of the rotor shaft. The speed of the engine is then determined from the frequency of the oscillations and the speed of the engine as determined is output for controlling operation of the engine.
