Abstract

The invention primarily relates to a turbomachine part (10) comprising a first upstream casing (2) and a second downstream casing (3), assembled to one another using at least one flange (6) formed by an upstream flange part (4) of the first upstream casing (2) and a downstream flange part (5) of the second downstream casing (3), the first upstream casing (2) and the second downstream casing (3) together at least partially delimiting the contour of an enclosure (30) in which at least one fluid (C) to be evacuated is contained, characterized in that it comprises a drainage device (1) comprising at least one drainage orifice (7a, 7b) formed on the flange (6) connecting the first upstream casing (2) and second downstream casing (3), in particular on the upstream flange part (4) of the flange (6), allowing the discharge of said at least one fluid (C) outside the enclosure (30).
