Abstract: The invention relates to a method for estimating a dead zone at closing of a flap (P1) of a discharge valve (VBV1) of a turbomachine, in which the actual position of the actuator (V1) is measured for a setpoint closing signal of the flap (P1), a static angle is determined from the actual position, a closing dead zone is determined, corresponding to the fact that the joint (J1) is compressed so as to not let the primary flow pass through the orifice (O1) in the secondary flow, by the fact that the dead zone is equal to a reference dead zone, which has been predetermined on a reference turbomachine operating on the ground, to which the measured static angle has been added and from which a reference static angle, which has been predetermined on the reference turbomachine operating in flight, has been subtracted.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for estimating and using a dead zone at closing of a flap (P1) of a discharge valve (VBV1) of a turbomachine, in which the actual position of the actuator (V1) is measured for a setpoint signal for closing the flap (P1), a static angle is determined from the actual position, a closing dead zone is determined from the static angle, corresponding to the fact that the joint (J1) remains compressed and seals the closing of the orifice (O1), the dead zone is recorded and the signal (SC1) for controlling the actuator (V1) is generated by the computer as a function of the dead zone.

Abstract: A turbine engine assembly includes a rotor disk extending around an axis A, a sealing flange centered on the axis A, the flange including a radially external portion that can come into contact with a face axially opposite the rotor disk in order to provide the tightness and a radially internal portion including a groove open axially towards the rotor disk and including a ring which is received in the groove of the flange and which is received in the groove of the flange. The ring includes at least one protruding tappet that is received in a notch formed in the flange.

Abstract: High-pressure fuel is supplied at a controlled rate to a combustion chamber via a position-controlled valve and a variable-restriction stop-and-pressurizing cut-off valve. A value representative of the real mass flow rate of fuel as delivered is calculated by a calculation unit on the basis of information representative of the pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the cut-off valve and of the flow section through the cut-off valve, e.g. as represented by the position X of the slide of the cut-off valve. The position-controlled valve has a variable position that is controlled by the calculation unit as a function of the difference between the calculated value representative of the real mass flow rate and a value representative of a desired mass flow rate.

Abstract: In a door closing procedure, an aircraft passenger door is pivoted from an open position to a pivoted-in position, shifted to a closed position, locked into a locked condition, and then secured into a secured locked condition. A control method and arrangement for controlling the closing procedure includes sensors that respectively each sense the completion of a respective allocated one of the steps of the closing procedure, and then responsively initiate the next following step of the procedure. The closing procedure is carried out in an automatic sequential step-wise manner using a simple robust arrangement, without requiring a computer control.
