TURBOPROP AIR INTAKE

摘要

Turboprop air intake A turboprop (110), comprising a rotary propeller (112) upstream from an engine (114) and an air intake (116) that is not coaxial to the propeller, said air intake defining a conduit (119) for supplying air to the engine and further defining a bypass (124) to said conduit, the bypass comprising an outlet (126) oriented substantially axially towards the downstream of the engine, the turboprop further comprising a nacelle (130) surrounding the engine and the air intake, characterised in that the air intake is secured to a housing (123) of the engine and is not rigidly connected to the nacelle, so as to allow, during operation, relative movements between the air intake and the nacelle, said outlet (126) being connected by a flexible link (140) to an intake of an air circuit carried by the nacelle.
