Device and method for starting a gas turbine, method for regulating the rotation speed of a gas turbine, and associated gas turbine and turbine engine

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for starting a gas turbine, comprising an initiation system able, on command, to rotate said gas turbine. The starting device comprises means for receiving information representing the rotation speed of the gas turbine, means for calculating a set torque value according to said information representing the rotation speed of the gas turbine, and means for transmitting said set torque value to the initiation system, and the means for calculating the set torque value are suitable for making a comparison of the information representing the rotation speed of the gas turbine with a predetermined speed profile and calculating the set torque value from said comparison.
