Turbomachine with collection of a compressed air flow
View Patent ↗A turbomachine including an exhaust housing, including a plurality of arms, the space separating the arms defining openings in which there circulates a primary air flow of the turbomachine, at least one conduit, a) configured to collect a compressed air flow at one of the ends of same, b) the other end of the conduit being connected to at least one opening of the exhaust housing, so as to insert the collected air flow into the primary air flow, the collected air flow having, when inserted into the opening, a Mach number less than or equal to 0.5.
1. A turbine engine comprising:
an exhaust casing comprising:
an internal hub and an outer shroud defining together a passage for a primary airflow of the turbine engine, and
a plurality of arms extending from the outer shroud to the internal hub, said arms dividing the passage into several openings; and
a duct having a first end and a second end,
wherein the duct is configured to collect at the first end thereof a compressed airflow,
wherein the second end of the duct connected to at least one of the openings of the exhaust casing, so as to insert the compressed airflow into said primary airflow, said compressed airflow having, during the insertion in the at least one of the openings of the exhaust casing, a Mach number less than or equal to 0.5, and
wherein the duct terminates at the second end thereof in a plurality of secondary ducts, the secondary ducts having secondary ends and being connected to the openings of the exhaust casing to insert the compressed airflow into said exhaust casing, the secondary ends of the secondary ducts passing through the outer shroud of the exhaust casing to pour into the compressed airflow into the openings of the exhaust casing, each secondary duct being connected to a different opening of the exhaust casing to send the compressed airflow within the exhaust casing.
2. The turbine engine according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one diaphragm arranged in the secondary ducts and reducing the pressure of the compressed airflow passing through the secondary ducts.
3. The turbine engine according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one diaphragm has a plurality of holes.
4. The turbine engine according to claim 1 , further comprising mouths projecting externally from the exhaust casing, the secondary ends of the secondary ducts being connected to the mouths to insert there the compressed airflow towards the openings of the exhaust casing.
5. The turbine engine according to claim 4 , having a fillet between the mouths and an outer part of the exhaust casing.
6. The turbine engine according to claim 1 , wherein the ends of the secondary ducts, inserting the compressed airflow, are arranged to a pressure side of the arms.
7. The turbine engine according to claim 1 , wherein the secondary ends of the secondary ducts have a progressive incline presenting a slope of an angle θ constantly less than or equal to 45° over the entire incline relative to a longitudinal axis of the turbine engine.
8. The turbine engine according to claim 1 , wherein an angle between the compressed airflow introduced into the openings of the exhaust casing and the primary flow circulating in the turbine engine is less than 45° or 35°.
9. The turbine engine according to claim 1 , wherein the secondary ends of the secondary ducts connected to the openings of the exhaust casing are arranged at an azimuthal angle comprised between 3H and 9H.
10. The turbine engine according to claim 1 , wherein the exhaust casing includes six holes in fluid communication with the secondary ducts, the six holes being distributed symmetrically.
