Abstract
A method for ventilating discs () of a brake () fitted to an aircraft wheel () having a rim () mounted so as to rotate on an axle () of a landing gear of the aircraft. The brake discs are threaded onto a torsion tube () of the brake which extends around the axle. The method comprises the step of integrating a compressor () into a space extending inside the torsion tube in order to draw in air beneath the torsion tube and to return the air thus drawn in by the compressor over the torsion tube towards the brake discs.
