More Information
Summary:The invention relates to a method for starting an aircraft turboshaft engine, said turboshaft engine comprising a combustion chamber, a compressor shaft on which a compressor wheel is mounted to feed compressed air to said combustion chamber, at least one starter connected to said shaft so as to provide it with a specified starting torque for driving it in rotation. The method comprises accelerating the compressor shaft during a first start-up phase, then stabilizing the rotational speed of the compressor shaft during a second start-up phase. During acceleration of the compressor shaft, the rotational speed of the shaft is regulated such that the acceleration of the shaft remains substantially constant.
