1. A turbomachine comprising:
a fan;
a splitter nose positioned downstream of the fan and extending along a longitudinal axis, the splitter nose comprising an inner casing and an outer casing to form a separation between a primary flow path for a primary stream and a secondary flow path for a secondary stream, the primary flow path and the secondary flow path being derived from the fan, the inner casing and the outer casing defining an inter-flow path space,
a first row of stator guide blades positioned in the primary flow path and being the most upstream stator guide blades impacted by the primary stream in the primary flow path,
a second row of stator guide blades positioned in the primary flow path downstream from the first row of stator guide blades and fixed by screws to the inner casing, so that the screws extend into the inter-flow path space, and
a de-icing assembly for supplying de-icing air for the splitter nose; wherein the de-icing assembly comprises a plurality of de-icing devices, each de-icing device of the plurality of deicing device comprising:
a first primary channel, the first primary channel being an air inlet;
a second primary channel, the second primary channel being an air outlet and the second primary channel facing with the first primary channel; and
a plurality of secondary channels, each secondary channel of the plurality of secondary channels is arranged in relationship to each other so that each secondary channel of the plurality of secondary channels extend from the first primary channel to the second primary channel;
wherein each secondary channel of the plurality of secondary channels of each de-icing device of the plurality of de-icing devices is positioned in the inter-flow path space and between the screws fixing the second row of the stator guide blades to the inter-flow path space; and
wherein the plurality of first primary channels of the plurality of de-icing device are connected by a hot air supply duct configured to bring the de-icing air to each first primary channel of each de-icing device of the plurality of de-icing devices,
wherein, for each de-icing device of the plurality of de-icing devices, the plurality of secondary channels comprises five secondary channels.
