DETECTION DE SURVITESSE D'UNE TURBINE LIBRE PAR MESURE SUR COUPLEMETRE

摘要

An overspeed protection device includes at least one torque measurement unit supported by an output shaft coupled mechanically to a free turbine of a turbine engine and a signal processing unit able to transmit to a turbine engine regulating system a command to reduce a flow of fuel injected if it is detected that the torque has dropped below a first datum value. The signal processing unit is shaped to command a reduction of the flow if it is detected that the torque has dropped below a first datum value, the torque measurement used to trigger the reduction being taken during a rotation corresponding to a fraction of a revolution of the output shaft.
