Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021140292A1] Method for controlling a clearance between blade tips of an aircraft engine turbine rotor and a turbine shroud, which comprises estimating the clearance to be controlled and controlling a valve supplying a flow of air to the turbine shroud depending on the clearance estimated, said method comprising: - detecting (100) a transient acceleration phase on the basis of at least one parameter representative of the engine; - receiving (102) data relating to the aircraft altitude; - determining (104) data representative of the temperature of the rotor during the transient acceleration phase and at a steady speed and calculating a relative difference in temperatures; if the transient acceleration phase is detected and if the relative difference in temperatures is greater than a predetermined minimum temperature difference, -defining a valve opening level and a valve opening time by means of a predefined altitude/relative temperature difference look-up table; and controlling (114) the opening of the valve in order to supply the flow of air to the turbine shroud.
