Abstract

The reverser includes a partition (28) exhibiting openings (19) and separating the cavity (16) which exists, when the doors (2) are in the closed position, between the front part (7) of the internal panel (11) of the door and the stream of gaseous flow (15) flowing in direct jet mode through the jet pipe CA, thus overcoming the aerodynamic losses which result from the presence of this cavity.
