ABSTRACT:
A turbomachine comprising, downstream from the turbine, a post-combustion chamber defined by a thermal protection lining inside a casing defining an annular channel for a secondary flow, an annular diaphragm secured at the downstream end of said channel, said nozzle comprising a plurality of flaps hinged to the upstream end of said casing, each flap fitted on its inside face with a thermal protection plate to define a passage for cooling air delivered by said diaphragm, wherein the cooling air is provided by an annular duct defined by a first flexible annular gasket in sliding contact against the downstream inside face of the casing and against the upstream inside faces of the flaps under the pressure of the secondary flow, and defined on the inside by a second flexible annular gasket whose upstream end is fixed to the radially inner zone of the diaphragm, and whose downstream end is in sliding contact against the upstream inside face of the protection plates.
