## Abstract

A primary nozzle of a turbomachine primary exhaust duct, the primary nozzle comprising a microperforated first wall facing towards the inside and which widens from the front as far as an intermediate zone, a one-piece second wall comprising a microperforated internal part which extends rearward and in the continuity of the first wall from the intermediate zone and narrows from the intermediate zone rearwards, an external part which faces towards the outside around the internal part, and a fold connecting the rear parts of the internal part and of the external part, where the first wall and the internal part are fixed to one another, and a noise attenuating element fixed to the first wall and to the internal part.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A primary nozzle of a turbomachine primary exhaust duct, the primary nozzle comprising:
a microperforated first wall, facing towards an inside of the primary nozzle, and which widens from a front as far as an intermediate zone,
a one-piece second wall, comprising
a microperforated internal part, which extends rearwards from the first wall and in continuity therewith from the intermediate zone, and narrows from the intermediate zone rearwards,
an external part which faces towards an outside of the primary nozzle around the internal part, and
a fold connecting rear parts of the internal part and of the external part, where the first wall and the internal part are fixed to one another, and
a noise attenuating element fixed to the first wall and to the internal part, and arranged between the first wall and the external part and between the internal part and the external part.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The primary nozzle according to claim 1, wherein a front end of the internal part has a discontinuity towards the outside and wherein a depth of the discontinuity is sized to house a rear end of the first wall so that a face of the first wall that faces towards the inside of the primary nozzle lies flush with a face of the internal part that faces towards the inside of the primary nozzle.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The primary nozzle according to claim 1, wherein the external part is made up of a rear external part which extends from the fold forward as far as a junction zone, and a front external part which extends from the junction zone to the front, and wherein a front end of the rear external part and a rear end of the front external part are fixed to one another.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The primary nozzle according to claim 3, wherein the front end of the rear external part has a discontinuity towards the inside and wherein a depth of the discontinuity is able to house the rear end of the front external part so that a face of the rear external part at the discontinuity that faces towards the outside of the primary nozzle lies flush with a face of the front external part that faces towards the inside of the primary nozzle.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A turbomachine comprising a primary exhaust duct delimited on the outside by a primary nozzle according to claim 1 and on the inside by an internal structure.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

An aircraft comprising at least one turbomachine according to claim 5.
