INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE START METHOD, AND CONTROL APPARATUS IMPLEMENTING SAID METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to a method for starting an internal combustion engine whereby: the internal combustion engine begins to be rotated using an electrical machine, and the rotation is maintained so as to move said engine into a self-contained drive rotation state. The method is characterized in that the rotation of the engine is stopped when the instantaneous engine speed (N) exceeds a predetermined speed threshold (Sn) and moreover in that the instantaneous acceleration (Ai) of said engine speed is greater than a predetermined acceleration threshold (Sa). The invention also relates to a control apparatus for implementing said method.
