Abstract

The invention relates to an inter-compressor assembly for a turbine engine, wherein a VBV door (62) is mounted so as to pivot about a pivot axis (64) so as to be movable between a closed position in which the VBV door closes an opening (60) and an open position in which the VBV door allows air to flow through an upstream portion (60A) and a downstream portion (60B) of the opening. The VBV door (62) is profiled with a downstream surface (76) having a convex axial section extending from one of its ends to the other of its ends, and an angle between the downstream surface (76) and an inner surface (72) of the VBV door is between 120 and 140 degrees. The risk of aerodynamically disturbed air from the VBV door in the open position deviating from its path and negatively affecting the operation of another member located downstream, such as a turbine engine compressor, instead of being drawn into the downstream portion (60B) of the opening, is thus reduced.
