More Information
Summary:The invention relates to a device (50) for de-icing the air intake (249 of a gas turbine (10), such as a helicopter turboshaft. The invention is characterised in that the device includes an essentially metal housing (52) for the air intake (24) in the gas turbine, said housing including a first opening (54) for the air inlet into the housing (24), said first opening (54) being provided with a first essentially metal grid (56), the housing further including a second opening (58) for directing the air towards the compression stage (20) of the gas turbine, and the device further including means (62, 64) for generating in the housing electromagnetic waves at a frequency adapted for melting down rime.
