- the thermal unbalance is a temporary unbalance which is installed on the rotor of a turbomachine after stopping it. Hot air is lighter than cold air, a heterogeneous temperature is set up in the vein, which creates by bimetallic effect of the rotor.
- the thermal unbalance can be more than a hundred times greater than the residual unbalance of the rotor.
- a turbomachine must cross one or more critical speeds before reaching its operating speed.
- the thermal unbalance can result in strong vibrations, which can affect the reliability of the turbomachine.
- the thermal unbalance can also result in stator / rotor keys that can alter the mechanical strength of the components involved.
- the adaptation of the architecture is to the detriment of the mass of the turbomachine.

- the steps of the starting process that reduce the thermal unbalance are integrated into the engine startup process, managed by the electronic unit. Apart from giving the start order, no other operation is to be performed by an operator.
- the primary acceleration step is performed until a predetermined rotational speed is reached.
- the predetermined rotational speed may be less than a first critical rotational speed of the turbomachine.
- the rotational speed can then exceed the predetermined rotational speed during the secondary acceleration step.
- the predetermined condition is the flow of a predetermined duration from the beginning of the thermal homogenization step.
- This predetermined duration is for example between 5 and 6
- the primary acceleration step is performed until a vibration level greater than or equal to a first predetermined level is detected, said predetermined condition being the detection of a vibration level less than or equal to one second predetermined level lower than the first predetermined level.
- the starter can be controlled to maintain the rotational speed of the rotor constant.
- the starter is commanded to stop driving the rotor in rotation.
