Abstract
A nacelle for an aircraft propulsion unit includes an air intake cowl, and an intermediate section including fixed and removable hoods defining an access space between front ends of the hoods and an outer rear end of the air intake cowl. The intermediate section includes an annular row of mutually spaced connecting parts which rigidly connect the outer rear end of the air intake cowl to the front ends of the hoods so as to transmit longitudinal forces, and an intermediate cowl extending between the air intake cowl and the hoods, around the connecting parts, thereby closing the access space and creating aerodynamic continuity with the air intake cowl and the hoods. The intermediate cowl is formed from at least one strip which is held in place by tangential clamping of the circumferential ends of the strip.
