Abstract
A method for controlling takeoffs of mechanical energy and/or air on a turbine engine for the propulsion of an aircraft. It is based on a protocol for the exchange of a request/authorization between and by the energy manager and a system for controlling the turbine engine. This protocol is implemented as a result of a modification of the takeoff requirement. It is intended to check whether the surge margin is compatible with the modification of the takeoff requirement and, if the need arises, to apply temporary measures in order to prevent surge in the turbine engine, for example by providing at least a part of the energy requirements by a buffer. This permits the optimization of the operation of a turbine engine for the propulsion of an aircraft, while avoiding the risk of surge of the turbine engine.
