Abstract
A component for a centrifugal deaerator for removing gas from a turbomachine air/oil mixture includes a structural part configured to delimit a duct for the flow of the air/oil mixture, and includes a circumferential enclosure for the centrifugal separation of the air/oil mixture, an axial inlet for the air/oil mixture, radial oil outlets, and an outlet for oil-free air. The component includes at least one cellular structure configured to filter the oil while allowing the air to pass and occupying at least a space in the duct.
