ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A control device for controlling an engine of a turbine power system having more than one engine is disclosed. The control device includes a proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller based on power turbine speed and a signal representing the difference between the torque of the engine being controlled and the torque of another engine in the power system, if the controlled engine is generating a torque less than that of the other engine. Accordingly, the control loop used in the device inherently tends to bring the torque of the controlled engine up to the torque of the other engine while maintaining power turbine speed equal to its reference, thereby equalizing the torques without expensive electrical connections between the controls of the two engines. Overrides are provided so that fuel also may be controlled based on the maximum torque of the engine being controlled, the total torque exerted by all the engines of the power system, the power turbine temperature, or by positive or negative gas generator speed rate of changes.
