Abstract
A combustion chamber including a diverging portion. The combustion chamber extends along a longitudinal axis and includes a fluid injection system from which there extends in a downstream direction a wall presenting a throat and a diverging portion situated downstream from the throat. The chamber further includes a tubular element surrounding the wall at least in part and configured to take up most of forces generated during operation of the chamber on the downstream end of the wall to transfer the forces to a structure situated upstream from the chamber.
