Splitter Nose With Plasma De-Icing For Axial Turbine Engine Compressor

An axial turbine engine compressor, said compressor comprising

• a splitter nose, the splitter nose comprising:
• a separation surface with an upstream circular edge, intended to split a flow entering into the turbine engine into a primary annular flow and a secondary annular flow;
• a layer of dielectric material partially forming the separation surface;
• a first electrode, and
• a second electrode separated from the first electrode by the dielectric layer, the electrodes being configured to be able to form a plasma on the separation surface in combination with the layer of dielectric material.

An axial turbine engine including

• a primary annular flow;
• a secondary annular flow;
• and
• a splitter nose comprising:
• a separation surface with an upstream circular edge, the separation surface splitting a flow entering into the turbine engine into the primary annular flow and into the secondary annular flow;
• and
• a layer of dielectric material partially forming the separation surface;
• at least one de-icing plasma-generating electrode, which partially forms the separation surface and which is adapted to be able to form a plasma in combination with the dielectric layer in order to de-ice the separation surface.
