Fairing for a mixer of a nozzle of a dual-flow turbomachine
The invention relates to a fairing ( 37 ) for a mixer ( 28 ) of a nozzle ( 26 ) of a dual-flow turbomachine ( 20 ), said mixer being of an overall annular shape and extending along a longitudinal axis ( 24 ) of the turbomachine, said mixer comprising an upstream part ( 29 ) provided with a flange ( 31 ) extending radially toward the outside of the mixer, intended to be fastened to an exhaust casing ( 21 ) of the turbomachine, and a downstream part ( 33 ) forming a flow mixing area, the fairing ( 37 ) being of an overall annular shape and configured to extend around the upstream part ( 29 ) of the mixer ( 28 ) and to be attached to the flange ( 31 ) of said upstream part ( 29 ), the fairing being without means for fastening to the downstream part ( 33 ) of the mixer ( 28 ), in such a way as to connect the fairing ( 37 ) to the mixer ( 28 ) at a distance from the flow mixing area.
1. A fairing for a mixer of an exhaust nozzle of a dual-flow turbomachine, wherein a first flow is between an inner body of the exhaust nozzle and the mixer, and a second flow is radially outward of the mixer, said mixer being of an overall annular shape and extending along a longitudinal axis of the turbomachine, said mixer comprising an upstream part provided with a flange extending radially outwards of the mixer, intended to be fastened to an exhaust casing of the turbomachine, and a downstream part forming a flow mixing area radially outwards of the fairing between the fairing and the mixer, the fairing being of an overall annular shape and configured to extend around the upstream part of the mixer at a distance from the flow mixing area,
said fairing being characterized in that it is configured to be attached to the flange of the upstream part of the mixer, when said fairing is installed on the mixer, and in that it is without means for fastening to the downstream part of the mixer.
2. The fairing according to claim 1 , comprising an upstream portion forming a flange of the fairing extending radially inwards of the fairing and configured to co-operate with the flange of the upstream part of the mixer, a median portion of an overall annular shape, and a downstream portion of an overall conical shape extending radially inwards of the fairing from the median portion toward a downstream end.
3. The fairing according to claim 2 , wherein the downstream end of the fairing is provided with cuts of material intended to facilitate access to the flange of the fairing.
4. The fairing according to claim 1 , wherein the fairing is configured to be attached to the flange of the upstream part of the mixer by welding.
5. The fairing according to claim 1 , wherein the fairing is configured to be attached to the flange of the upstream part of the mixer by means of a bolted assembly.
6. A mixer of an exhaust nozzle of a dual-flow turbomachine, wherein a first flow is between an inner body of the exhaust nozzle and the mixer, and a second flow is radially outward of the mixer, the mixer being of an overall annular shape and extending along a longitudinal axis of the turbomachine,
said mixer comprising:
an upstream part provided with a flange extending radially outwards of the mixer and configured to be fastened to an exhaust casing of the turbomachine,
a downstream part forming a flow mixing area,
said mixer being characterized in that it comprises a fairing, of an overall annular shape, extending around the upstream part of the mixer at a distance from the flow mixing area, said fairing being attached to the flange of the upstream part of the mixer and without means for fastening to the downstream part of the mixer, wherein the flow mixing area is formed radially outwards of the fairing between the fairing and the mixer.
7. The mixer according to claim 6 , wherein the downstream part ends at its downstream end in inner lobes alternating circumferentially with outer lobes, so as to encourage mixing of the first flow and the second flow.
8. A dual-flow turbomachine comprising the mixer according to claim 6 , the flange of the upstream part of said mixer being fastened to the exhaust casing.
9. An aircraft comprising at least the dual-flow turbomachine according to claim 8 .
