The invention relates to a device (2) for cooling a turbine casing, preferably of a low-pressure turbine of a turbomachine, with air jets, the device comprising a pressurised air supply housing (3) and at least two curved cooling pipes (40) arranged on either side of the housing (3), around and spaced apart from a part of the casing and provided with air injection holes (41), the housing comprising, in particular, a bottom (31) and two longitudinal side walls (32, 33), and the bottom being pierced by air injection holes. The device is characterised in that each of the side walls extends outwards as at least one single-piece tubular sleeve, to which a cooling pipe is joined, the bottom of the sleeve being located at the same level as the bottom of the housing at the point where they are joined together.
A device for cooling a turbine casing by air jets, preferably a low-pressure turbine casing of a turbomachine, comprising a pressurized air supply housing and at least one cooling line comprising two cooling pipes arranged on each side of said housing, said housing comprising a bottom, two longitudinal side walls, two upstream and downstream end walls and an upper wall, and said bottom of the housing being pierced by air injection orifices arranged so as to open toward the casing around which said cooling device is intended to be arranged, each cooling pipe being curved, arranged around a part of the casing and at a distance therefrom and being provided with air injection orifices opening toward the casing, wherein each of said side walls extends outward via at least one tubular sleeve integral with said side wall, wherein each sleeve is arranged on said side wall so that its bottom is at the same level as said bottom of the housing at the place where they join and wherein each sleeve is configured and dimensioned so that one of the cooling pipes may be connected thereto.
