Abstract

The disclosure relates to a flow deflector for a discharge valve system of a double flow turbomachine compressor. The flow deflector comprises a wall provided with a plurality of ejection channels positioned to discharge a discharge air flow. The ejection channels are arranged in rows along aligned directions, substantially parallel to an axial plane of the deflector. The ejection channels of each row are oriented at a defined angle between a normal line to the wall and axes of the ejection channels, and decreasing between an upstream edge and a downstream edge of the wall, as defined according to the direction of movement of the air flow.
