Combustion chamber end wall with ventilation

1. A turbomachine combustion chamber comprising a chamber end wall presenting a plurality of air and fuel injector devices, each of said devices comprising a bowl and a deflector mounted on a main axis forming a heat shield disposed around said bowl, said bowl flaring in the gas flow direction and possessing an annular portion, with the interface between said bowl and said deflector being situated on said annular portion, wherein at least a portion of said interface is situated towards the end of said annular portion that is upstream in the gas flow direction, and wherein an annular cavity is defined between said deflector and said annular portion downstream from said interface, first bowl holes being formed through said annular portion to open out in register with an edge of said chamber end wall, said edge being in contact with a root of said deflector, said first holes enabling a sustained flow of air from upstream to downstream in said annular cavity, the air entering said annular cavity by passing through the first holes and coming to impact directly from said first holes against the root of the deflector in contact with said edge of said end wall.

2. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein said first holes are circular.

3. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein said first holes are slots.

4. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein said first holes are oriented radially relative to said main axis.

5. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein said first holes are perpendicular to said main axis, with a circumferential inclination.

6. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein all of said interface is situated towards the end of said annular portion that is situated upstream in the gas flow direction, such that said cavity opens out via an annular orifice into said combustion chamber.

7. A combustion chamber comprising a chamber end wall presenting a plurality of air and fuel injector devices, each of said devices comprising a bowl and a deflector mounted on a main axis forming a heat shield disposed around said bowl, said bowl flaring in the gas flow direction and possessing an annular portion, with the interface between said bowl and said deflector being situated on said annular portion, wherein at least a portion of said interface is situated towards the end of said annular portion that is upstream in the gas flow direction, and wherein an annular cavity is defined between said deflector and said annular portion downstream from said interface, first bowl holes being formed through said annular portion to open out in register with the edge of said chamber end wall, said edge being in contact with said deflector, said first holes enabling a sustained flow of air from upstream to downstream in said annular cavity, the air entering said annular cavity by passing through the first holes and coming to impact directly against a portion of the deflector in contact with said edge of said end wall,

wherein said annular portion possesses an annular rib towards its downstream end, which rib is in contact with said deflector over a contact zone that constitutes the remaining portion of said interface, said annular rib being pierced by second bowl holes, the air coming from said annular cavity being capable of flowing through said second holes so as to cool the downstream end of said bowl.

8. A combustion chamber according to claim 7 , wherein the axes of said second holes are parallel to said main axis.

9. A combustion chamber according to claim 7 , wherein the axes of said second holes are inclined relative to said main axis.

10. A combustion chamber comprising a chamber end wall presenting a plurality of air and fuel injector devices, each of said devices comprising a bowl and a deflector mounted on a main axis forming a heat shield disposed around said bowl, said bowl flaring in the gas flow direction and possessing an annular portion, with the interface between said bowl and said deflector being situated on said annular portion, wherein at least a portion of said interface is situated towards the end of said annular portion that is upstream in the gas flow direction, and wherein an annular cavity is defined between said deflector and said annular portion downstream from said interface, first bowl holes being formed through said annular portion to open out in register with the edge of said chamber end wall, said edge being in contact with said deflector, said first holes enabling a sustained flow of air from upstream to downstream in said annular cavity, the air entering said annular cavity by passing through the first holes and coming to impact directly against a portion of the deflector in contact with said edge of said end wall,

wherein all of said interface is situated towards the end of said annular portion that is situated upstream in the gas flow direction, such that said cavity opens out via an annular orifice into said combustion chamber, and

wherein said deflector is pierced by holes enabling air coming from said annular cavity to penetrate between said deflector and said chamber end wall.

11. A combustion chamber according to claim 10 , wherein said holes are circular.

12. A combustion chamber according to claim 10 , wherein said holes are slots.

13. A combustion chamber according to claim 10 , wherein the axes of said holes are oriented radially relative to said main axis.

14. A combustion chamber according to claim 10 , wherein the axes of said holes are perpendicular to said main axis, with a circumferential inclination.

15. A turbomachine including a combustion chamber according to claim 1 .

16. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein said edge of said chamber end wall has an inner circumferential surface, and wherein each of said first holes is oriented along an axis that intersects said inner circumferential surface.

17. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein said root has a portion located between said annular portion of said bowl and said edge of said chamber end wall.

18. A combustion chamber according to claim 17 , wherein said first holes face an inside face of said portion of said root.

19. A combustion chamber according to claim 18 , wherein said edge contacts an outside face of said portion of said root.

20. A combustion chamber according to claim 1 , wherein said first holes face said edge of said chamber end wall.
