The invention relates to a turbomachine comprising a device for ventilating and pressurising a turbine rotor of a turbomachine of axis (A), the device comprising at least one collection pipe suitable for collecting a fraction of the air circulating in a high-pressure compressor of the turbomachine and conveying it to a first inner chamber (39) inside the turbomachine that communicates with a second inner chamber (40) delimited by the turbine (24) rotor (23), the first and second chambers (39, 40) being at least partially separated by a stationary shroud (56) of axis (A), characterised in that it comprises at least one injector (58) passing through the stationary shroud (56) and having a cross-section that varies in response to a pressure difference between said first and second chambers (39, 40).

A stator wheel for a turbomachine turbine. This wheel includes an inner shroud formed by an upstream portion and a downstream portion configured to be assembled with the blades by axial translation in a respective direction.

A method for forming a ceramic matrix composite component includes forming a fibrous preform of the component with a plurality of fiber layers and a fill region disposed between one or more of the plurality of fiber layers. Ceramic particles are provided in the fill region, which is densified using chemical vapor infiltration.

An apparatus is provided for a turbine engine. This turbine engine apparatus includes a turbine engine component that includes a sidewall and a cooling aperture. The cooling aperture includes an inlet, an outlet, a meter section, a diffuser section and a transition section between and fluidly coupled with the meter section and the diffuser section.
