Abstract
Method for monitoring an ignition system of an aircraft turbine engine, the ignition system including a combustion chamber fitted with a spark plug and an ignition casing, the turbine engine including an accelerometer and an acoustic sensor. The method includes steps of: acquiring accelerometric and acoustic data representative of spark plug breakdown noises from signals generated by the accelerometer and the acoustic sensor, detecting breakdown peak times from the accelerometric data and the acoustic data, correlating the breakdown peak times detected from the accelerometric data and the breakdown peak times detected from the acoustic data, and establishing a diagnosis of the health of the ignition casing and a diagnosis for the spark plug on the basis of the correlation results.
