Abstract:
An aircraft turbine engine including at least one spool rotating at speed N1 and a monitoring system including: a regulating module including at least one regulation measurement channel to obtain a measurement of the speed N1 and a mechanism to compare the obtained speed measurement with a thrust setpoint to provide a thrust status; and a module for engaging a protection function of UHT or ATTCS type of the turbine engine. The turbine engine further includes a system for protection against overspeed to prevent ejection of high-energy debris outside the turbine engine, the protection system including at least one overspeed measurement channel to obtain an overspeed of the rotating spool of the turbine engine. The engagement module compares at least one overspeed obtained with at least one reference speed defined according to the protection function to be engaged, to engage the protection function according to results of the comparison.
