Abstract
A de-icing and anti-icing splitter for an axial turbine engine low-pressure compressor has an external annular wall delimiting the secondary or bypass flow, and an internal annular wall; notably an external stator shroud; delimiting the primary or main stream. The upstream edge of the internal wall is fixed to the upstream annular hook of the external wall. The splitter has a series of notches which pass radially through the internal wall to allow de-icing fluid to circulate through the hook. The notches may form crescents. The splitter becomes simpler while at the same time maintaining optimal efficiency.
