Publication number: 20230341088Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method for chilling down a cryogenic fluid supply circuit comprising a step of acquiring a state value of the cryogenic fluid supply circuit at a current time, a step of computing a corresponding opening time of each out of one or more valves of the cryogenic fluid supply circuit, and a step of opening each valve at the corresponding time to chill down the cryogenic fluid supply circuit. The step of computing is carried out by a computer applying an artificial neural network to compute a sequence of opening of the valves making it possible to reach, starting from the state value of the cryogenic fluid supply circuit at the current time, a state of the cryogenic fluid supply circuit meeting one or more predetermined chill down criteria at a predetermined time in the future.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2021Publication date: October 26, 2023Applicant: ARIANEGROUP SASInventors: Serge LE GONIDEC, Charles-Hubert BACHELET, Sébastien REICHSTADT, Anne-Laure WOZNIAK

Patent number: 10352275Abstract: A field of test methods, and more particularly to a method for testing a device, the method including one operating stage corresponding to a stable value of one operating setpoint for the device and/or for a test bench for testing the device. The operating stage is finalized before a maximum duration threshold if a criterion associated with a set of physical parameters picked up during the operating stage is satisfied and if a confidence level associated with the set of physical parameters reaches at least a predetermined threshold.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2014Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: SAFRAN AIRCRAFT ENGINESInventors: Serge Le Gonidec, Sebastien Reichstadt

Patent number: 10077742Abstract: A technical test method for evaluating at least one operating parameter of a device over a sequence of a plurality of operating stages, each stage corresponding to a stable value of at least one operating setpoint of the device. The method including at least sampling values of the at least one operating parameter over time, filtering the sampled values in order to obtain a filtered signal for each operating parameter, calculating the variance of the sampled values for each operating parameter in a sampling window during the operating stage, calculating the absolute value of the time derivative of the filtered signal for each operating parameter, and changing the value of the at least one operating setpoint when, for each operating parameter, the variance of the sampled values and the absolute value of the time derivative of the filtered signal are less than respective predetermined lower thresholds.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2014Date of Patent: September 18, 2018Assignee: SAFRAN AIRCRAFT ENGINESInventors: Serge Le Gonidec, Sebastien Reichstadt, Virgil Musta

Publication number: 20170372437Abstract: A method of operation of a complex system includes obtaining a population of operating points in a multidimensional space having axes, each representative of a parameter of a subsystem of the system that is represented for characterization purposes; followed by constructing a plurality of limit domains in that space, each constructed around a reference point to encompass a proportion of the population defined in the subsystem plane under consideration, which plane corresponds to a projection of the operating points obtained at system level into the plane of the subsystem under consideration; followed, for each subsystem, by defining qualifying domains by counting points of the population lying outside a given limit; and as functions of the result of the counting and a target proportion for the population defined for the system, adapting the domain to define modified domains characterizing operation of the subsystems approaching a defined target for the system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 8, 2016Publication date: December 28, 2017Applicant: SNECMAInventors: Guillaume GALATEAU, Sebastien REICHSTADT, Tristan LE FEVRE, Philippe JAMES

Publication number: 20170101963Abstract: The invention relates to the field of rocket engines, and in particular to a method and a circuit for regulating a rocket engine (1) comprising at least one combustion chamber (3) and a first liquid propellant feed circuit (10) with a first pump (12) for pumping a first liquid propellant and a first turbine (14) for actuating the first pump (12), a first feed valve (15), and a regulator device for regulating the first turbine (14). In the regulation method and circuit, an opening command (DVCH) for opening the first feed valve (15) is calculated from an external command (Cext) in application of an open loop control relationship; a command for the regulator device of the first turbine (14) is calculated on the basis of said external command (Cext) and at least one feedback value, in application of a closed loop control relationship; and the first feed valve (15) and the regulator device of the first turbine (14) are controlled in application of the respective commands.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2016Publication date: April 13, 2017Applicant: AIRBUS SAFRAN LAUNCHERS SASInventors: Manuel KLEIN, David HAYOUN, Serge LE GONIDEC, Sebastien REICHSTADT
