Abrégé

Blade for a turbo machine impeller comprising a root, an air foil and a tip. The root and the tip comprise platforms having surfaces (15) on the side of the air foil, the surfaces respectively being referred to as the root and tip flow path. Each of these flow paths is made up of a pressure-face part and of a suction-face part which are situated respectively on the side of the pressure face and of the suction face and are separated by a crest curve (45, 65). Blade manufacture is made easier notably by virtue of the fact that any point on a first surface out of the pressure face and the suction face and any point on the root and tip flow path parts situated on the side of the first surface has a normal that makes an acute or right angle with respect to a direction referred to as the first direction of manufacture.

Abrégé

In order to improve the cooling of an annular wall (13) of a turbomachine combustion chamber provided with microperforations (53) and, in particular, the cooling of a region of the wall facing a wake (52) caused by an ignition plug, deflector means (60, 68) are proposed, these being designed to deflect the air (34') bathing the ignition plug towards a mid plane (P) of the wake (52) and in the direction of the annular wall (13) of the combustion chamber so as to increase the pressure of the air within the wake (52) near the annular wall (13).
