  • Method for monitoring the engines of an aircraft
    Patent number: 10962448
    Abstract: A monitoring method, the purpose of which is, when a loss of power is detected in an aircraft engine, to generate an alarm in the form of a single message displayed on a display screen in the cockpit, in order to indicate if the level of damage suffered by the engine is critical or not. The steps implemented are based on alarm signals transmitted by a central processing unit of the engine and also on alarm signals transmitted by a diagnostic device for the onboard systems of the aircraft, in order to take account of both the situation of the engine and also the situation of the systems surrounding the engine which can be affected by damage to an engine.

  • Device for monitoring a turbine engine of an aircraft
    Patent number: 10823076
    Abstract: An aircraft including at least one turbine engine and a monitoring device associated with the turbine engine, the turbine engine being linked firstly to circuits including fluid circuits and electric circuits, and secondly to sensors for monitoring the turbine engine and the circuits, the sensors including at least one fire sensor and sensors for monitoring the fluid circuits, sensors for monitoring the electric circuits and sensors for monitoring the operation of the turbine engine, the monitoring device being linked to the sensors and including a central processing unit to generate a signal indicating the occurrence of a fire on the turbine engine only if a fire sensor and a sensor for monitoring a fluid circuit or an electric circuit or the operation of the turbine engine transmit a signal indicating an anomaly.
