Abstract

A de-icing device includes a hot air circuit including an inlet for hot air bled from an engine, and a duct connecting the inlet to an outlet of the circuit which opens towards the leading edge. The device also includes electrical heating means associated with the duct, and control means for controlling the heating means connected to detection means that detect the temperature of the hot air downstream of the heating means and are able to activate these if the detected temperature of the bled air is below a value corresponding to a minimum temperature required for de-icing, increased by a predetermined margin. The range of temperatures of the hot air supplied to the leading edge is lowered overall, whereas the minimum de-icing temperature is assured. Composite materials can be used near the leading edge without being damaged.
