  • Publication number: 20190024586
    Abstract: A supply duct of a compressor of a turbine engine, formed from internal and external walls of revolution around an axis and opposite one another to define a circulation stream of a fluid, is provided. The stream allows the fluid to be routed from the inlet of the duct to the inlet of the compressor. The radius of the external wall at the inlet of the duct is greater than the radius of the duct at the inlet of the compressor. The duct includes a portion for which the radius of the external wall along the portion is less than the radius of the external wall at the inlet of the compressor, and the radius of the internal wall along the portion of the duct is less than the radius of the internal wall at the inlet of the compressor.

  • Publication number: 20180009522
    Abstract: A turboprop including a propeller including a blade extending in a direction, which also includes a root, a leading edge, a trailing edge, and a wing tip, and an inner air stream channel, wherein the inner air stream channel includes an inlet located at the root of the blade and an outlet leading to the trailing edge of the blade transversely directed in relation to the main elongation direction, such that an inner stream of air flowing in the inner air stream channel by entering via the inlet adjacent to the root of the blade is discharged via the outlet adjacent to the trailing edge of the blade by forming a stream of blown air that moves away from the trailing edge in a direction which is transverse to the main elongation direction and which has a component in the direction of a skeleton line of the blade at the trailing edge.
