Abstract
A propulsion system for an aircraft. The propulsion system comprises a core, an internal fixed structure secured to the core and arranged around the core, and a nacelle surrounding the core and the internal fixed structure in which a secondary flow path is delimited between the internal fixed structure and the nacelle. The internal fixed structure has a slot which permits fluidic communication between a compartment on the inside of the internal fixed structure and the secondary flow path.
