Abstract
A power plant (10) having a first and second turboshaft engines (11, 16) and an emergency system (20) for injecting fluid into said engines (11, 16). First and second pressurization pipes (26, 28) connect a tank (21) to each gas generator of the engines. In addition, the system (20) includes an injector device (35, 40) for each engine, which device comprises an injector pipe (36, 41) connecting said tank (21) to at least one injector nozzle (31). A distributor (51, 52) is arranged on each injector pipe (36, 41), each valve (51) feeding one of the engines while being connected to the gas generator of the other engine.
