  • Integrated test method for testing the electrical operation of a thrust reverser of an aircraft turbojet, and an associated system
    Patent number: 10975801
    Abstract: An integrated test method for testing the operation of an electrical power converter powered by an on-board power supply network and using field-oriented control to control a three-phase electric motor for a thrust reverser of a turbojet of an aircraft is provided. The method includes: receiving an order to initiate the integrated test; controlling the converter from a current setpoint defined from a non-zero in-phase component and a zero quadratic component; measuring the currents delivered on each of the three outlet phases of said converter; determining in-phase and quadratic components of the three phase currents previously measured; comparing these components with the in-phase and quadratic components of the current setpoint; and sending a notification concerning the malfunctioning or the functioning of the thrust reverser as a function of the result of the comparison.
