A method for controlling a turbomachine comprising including a fan positioned upstream of a gas generator. The turbomachine including an electric motor forming a torque injection device for a high-pressure rotary shaft, in which method a fuel flow setpoint for a combustion chamber and a torque setpoint (Tcons) for the electric motor (ME) are determined. The control method including the steps of determining (El) a hybridisation rate (TH) corresponding to the ratio of the power (Pe) consumed by the electric motor (ME) to the power generated by the high-pressure rotary shaft (P2), determining (E2) a torque threshold (Tseuil) from the hybridisation rate (TH), limiting (E3) the torque setpoint (Tcons) to the torque threshold (Tseuil) if the torque setpoint (Tcons) is higher than the torque threshold (Tseuil).
A method for controlling a turbomachine (100) comprising a fan (110) positioned upstream of a gas generator and delimiting a primary flux and a secondary flux, said gas generator being traversed by the primary flux and comprising a low-pressure compressor (111), a high-pressure compressor (112), a combustion chamber (113), a high-pressure turbine (114) and a low-pressure turbine (115), said low-pressure turbine (115) being connected to said low-pressure compressor by a low-pressure rotation shaft (121) and said high-pressure turbine (114) being connected to said high-pressure compressor (112) by a high-pressure rotation shaft (122), the turbomachine (100) comprising an electric motor (ME) forming a torque injection device on the high-pressure rotation shaft (122), a method in which a fuel flow rate setpoint (Qcons) in the combustion chamber (113) and a torque setpoint (Tcons) supplied to the electric motor (ME) are defined, the control method comprising the steps of:
