Abstract
A blade array for turbomachines comprises blades disposed between an inner wall and an outer wall. The inner wall and/or the outer wall is provided with a suction port near at least some blades. This port has a first end situated along the upper surface in a region of the blade extending from the point of maximum curvature to the neck of the passage between said blade and the adjacent blade. The port enabling the efficiency to be increased is oriented along an isobar line. Its length is such that the second end is spaced from the upper surface of the blade by a distance between one quarter and one half the width of the neck of the inter-blade passage.
