Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling the conformity of a profile of a section of a curved surface of a turbomachine element, comprising the following step: —(100) acquiring coordinates of a plurality of measurement points of the section in a frame of reference defined for said section; characterised in that the method comprises the following steps: —(200) calculating, based on the coordinates of these measurement points, the radius of curvature of the section at each of these points, in order to obtain a measured evolution curve of the radius of curvature according to the position of the measurement points along said section; —(300) comparing the measured evolution curve of the radius of curvature, obtained in the preceding step, with a theoretical evolution curve of the radius of curvature of the predetermined section; —(400) evaluating the conformity of the section based on the comparison carried out in the preceding step.

Abstract: An annular wall for an annular turbine engine combustion chamber, including one annular row of dilution orifices including larger area orifices and smaller area orifices, and a multi-perforation formed from micro-perforations distributed as an upstream row, a downstream row, and at least one intermediate row interrupted by the orifices, a geometric ratio being defined as the quotient obtained by dividing the maximum spacing L between any two points on the edge of the orifice measured along a direction parallel to an axis of the wall by the maximum spacing l between any two points on the edge of this orifice measured along a direction perpendicular to the axis, the geometric ratio of the larger area orifices being greater than or equal to 1, and the geometric ratio of the smaller area orifices being greater than the geometric ratio of the larger area orifices.

Abstract: A turbomachine combustion chamber including at least one ignition plug carried by an outer casing and extending within guide means carried by a wall of the chamber, the wall forming a body of revolution. The guide means includes a tubular guide having the plug passing axially therethrough and mounted with axial and transverse clearance on a chimney fastened to the wall of the chamber and opening out into the chamber, the guide extending at least in part in an air flow stream outside the chamber. The guide means includes a deflector surrounding the portion of the guide that is situated in the air flow stream so as to reduce the aerodynamic pressure on the guide and reduce the contact pressure of the guide on the plug.

Abstract: A method for three-dimensional measurement of coordinates of a set of N predetermined points of the surface of a mechanical part to be measured, relatively to a predetermined reference system, and the direction cosines of the theoretical normals thereto at the theoretical points corresponding to the N predetermined points are known, and including a preparatory phase, in which the coordinate points, corresponding to the N predetermined points of a first mechanical part taken as a standard part, are measured; an initialization phase, in which displacement measurements (along the normals are read on the N points of the standard part; a measurement phase, in which N linear displacement measurements performed on the N points of the part to be measured corresponding to the N points of the standard part, are read; and a computation phase, in which the coordinates of the N points of the part to be measured are computed.

Abstract: This cutting insert, designed to be inserted into the cutting head of a drill or other similar rotary boring tool, has an arced overall shape, with a concave flank and a convex flank. These flanks are connected by a base face, by two straight end edges one of which is able to act as a guide for the drill and, at the opposite end to the base face, by at least one cutting part, with at least one cutting edge and/or at least one tip. Also described is a boring tool, the cutting head of which comprises such arced inserts, arranged laterally, and associated with a central insert.
