Abstract

Disclosed is a supersonic speed attenuator for an air inlet of an aircraft power plant, having a conical external wall with a tapered end upstream and an internal dividing wall that delimits, with the conical external wall, a cavity; the supersonic speed attenuator further having a de-icing device having: an internal wall mounted in the cavity opposite the conical external wall so that, together, the two walls delimit a calibrated de-icing volume; at least one member for supplying a de-icing air flow, opening into the de-icing volume; and at least one member for discharging the de-icing air flow from the de-icing space.
