Abstract
A turbine blade includes a root and an airfoil extending from a base, through which it is connected to the root, to a tip. The airfoil includes an intrados wall and an extrados wall, connected by a leading edge and by a trailing edge with a cooling circuit. The cooling circuit includes a conduit with a duct and a manifold prolonging this conduit. The conduit collects air from the blade root to supply the duct and the manifold that is located downstream from the duct and that supplies the slits in the trailing edge with air. The duct supplies air to one end of the manifold close to the tip. The manifold is separated from the duct by a partition including a portion close to the tip that is curved to be concave when seen from the trailing edge.
