An inner combustion chamber casing of a turbomachine, which is intended to be placed downstream of a centrifugal compressor, is provided. The casing has the shape of a disc, pierced by a central circle, and includes on its disc at least one guide vane of the drawn-off air. The guide vane extends longitudinally over the disc between the periphery of the disc and the central circle and spreads out axially from the disc so as to form with the downstream face of the centrifugal compressor a guide channel for the air which is drawn off upon exit from the said compressor. The guide vane has a curved shape orienting in a radial direction at the level of its most central end.

Control of axial thrust by guidance of the air drawn off from a centrifugal compressor

A turbomachine compressor rotor including at least two blade-carrying disks mounted on a common axis and connected together by a wall forming a substantially cylindrical surface of revolution, and a centripetal air bleed mechanism including air passages passing through the wall and radial fins for deflecting a stream of air leaving the passages in the wall, the fins being carried by one of the disks and being substantially in radial alignment with the passages through the wall.

Turbomachine compressor rotor including centripetal air bleed means

In an axial-centrifugal compressor, the rotor of which includes an impeller, axial play is controlled by a special air ventilation to the rotor, by a circuit including two parallel arms, flow rates of which are both controlled by respective veins, and moreover the temperature in one of them is changed by a heat exchanger. The ventilation air is thus controlled, both in terms of temperature and flow rate.

Axial-centrifugal compressor having system for controlling play

A compressor rotor for a turbomachine including at least two disks on a common axis carrying blades and connected together by a tubular wall, forming a surface of revolution, and a centripetal air bleed mechanism including air passages passing through the tubular wall, together with a wall extending along the tubular wall from the through passages up to one of the disks to channel the air stream inside the tubular wall.
