Abstract
The sealing of a turbine casing is reinforced by decoupling a fastening flange from a remainder of a housing. The casing includes a body that is externally reinforced by axial ribs that are connected to an annular rib and the fastening flange is attached to the annular rib by an annular wall portion that is thinner than the annular rib and than the flange.
