20180112596 · 2018-04-26 ·

The invention relates to a de-icing splitter nose (22) of an axial turbine engine, notably a de-icing splitter nose of a turbo-jet engine compressor. The splitter nose includes an annular row of vanes (26), each of which has a radially extending leading edge (36), and a de-icing system (28) based on hot-air injection. The injection is pulsed, i.e. discontinuous. The system (28) includes an annular row of injection orifices for injecting de-icing fluid (44) onto the vanes (26) in respective injection directions (46). Each injection orifice is associated with a vane such that the injection directions thereof are substantially parallel to the leading edge (36) of the related vane, enabling said vane (26) to be de-iced.
