  • Patent number: 11732588
    Abstract: A turbomachine includes a rotor and a stator, the stator having a plurality of profiled structures, each profiled structure being elongated in a direction of elongation in which the profiled structure has a length exposed to an airflow, and having a leading edge and/or a trailing edge, at least one of which is profiled and has, in said direction of elongation, serrations defined by a succession of peaks and troughs and having a geometric pattern transformed, over at least a part of said length exposed to the airflow, by successive scaling, via multiplicative factors, in the direction of elongation and/or transverse to the direction of elongation. The geometric pattern, as defined with reference to a radial distribution of the integral scale of the turbulence, evolves in a non-periodic manner.

  • Patent number: 11668196
    Abstract: A profiled structure for an aircraft or turbomachine is elongated in a direction in which the structure has a length exposed to an airflow and includes serrations defined by successive teeth and depressions. The serrations may be transverse to a leading edge and/or a trailing edge of the profiled structure and in the direction of elongation. Along the profiled leading edge and/or profiled trailing edge, the successive teeth and depressions may extend only over a part of the length exposed to the flow. The amplitude and/or spacing of the teeth may vary monotonically except for the few teeth nearest each end of the part, with a remaining part of the length being smooth.

  • Patent number: 11560796
    Abstract: The invention relates to a profiled structure elongated in a direction in which the structure has a length exposed to an airflow and transversely to which the structure has a leading edge and/or a trailing edge, at least one of which is profiled and has, along said direction of elongation, geometric serration patterns defined by a succession of peaks and troughs. Along the profiled leading edge and/or trailing edge, the serration patterns have a geometric pattern that is repeated in the direction of elongation, the shape of which is stretched and/or contracted transversely to the direction of elongation and/or in the direction of elongation.

  • Publication number: 20210388725
    Abstract: The invention relates to a profiled structure, elongated in a direction in which the structure has a length exposed to an airflow, and transversely to which the structure has a leading edge (164) and/or a trailing edge, at least one of which is profiled and has, in said direction of elongation, serrations (28a) defined by successive teeth (30) and depressions (32). Along the profiled leading edge and/or profiled trailing edge, the successive teeth (30) and depressions (32) extend only over a part of said length exposed to the flow over which the amplitude and/or spacing of the teeth varies monotonically except for the few teeth nearest each end of said part, a remaining part (280) of said length being smooth.

  • Patent number: 10941667
    Abstract: A stator vane including a vane root, a vane tip, a leading edge extending between the root and the tip, the leading edge having a serrated profile having a succession of teeth and of troughs each having an amplitude and a thickness, wherein a series of at least three teeth and three consecutive troughs starting from the vane root and/or from the vane tip have a growing amplitude and/or thickness.

  • Publication number: 20200148325
    Abstract: The invention relates to a profiled structure, elongated in a direction in which the structure has a length (L1) exposed to an airflow (U), and transversely to which the structure has a leading edge (164) and/or a trailing edge (165), at least one of which is profiled and has, along said direction of elongation, geometric serration patterns (28) defined by a succession of peaks (30) and troughs (32). Along the profiled leading edge and/or trailing edge, the serration patterns (28) have a geometric pattern that is repeated in the direction of elongation (L1), the shape of which is stretched and/or contracted: transversely to the direction of elongation, and/or in the direction of elongation.
