In order to compensate for the increase in a leakage rate of ventilation air originating in a circuit via a labyrinth seal that gradually wears at the bottom of a ventilation chamber, and the reduction of a purge rate via an opening upstream from the chamber, a second injection opening is added to a main injection opening. The second injection opening communicates with the chamber via a second labyrinth seal that wears at the same time as the first, and thus gradually increases the air flow rate passing through the injector in order to compensate for the additional leakage rate through the first injector and maintain the ventilation at its initial level.
