  • Publication number: 20240116644
    Abstract: A propulsion assembly for an aircraft comprising a dual-flow turbine engine equipped with a fan, an aerodynamic outer shroud acting as a nacelle as well as a mounting pylon, the propulsion assembly having a secondary flow path defined by an outer radial defining surface formed by the shroud, the turbine engine including stator vanes, and the mounting pylon comprising a part housed in the secondary flow path, referred to as upstream part. According to the invention, the upstream part of the pylon extends radially from the inner radial defining surface, along a radial pylon height strictly less than a total radial height of the secondary flow path, and the upstream part of the pylon extends in the downstream direction from a root part of one of the stator vanes.
