An electric propulsion unit of an aircraft including a nacelle housing an electric power system, an electric motor and a cooling system for the electric power system; the nacelle including a central fairing, a front fairing which extends from the central fairing to a front end and a rear fairing which extends from the central fairing to a rear end. The front fairing includes a protrude positioned in a lower part of the front fairing, the protrude having a front face in a transverse plane, a main air inlet of the cooling system being positioned on the front face.

A drain configured to evacuate leaks of fluid, such as fuel, from a leak collecting system of an aircraft, the drain comprising a rigid tube secured to a plate, the plate being configured to be attached to an external wall of the aircraft, a flexible pipe configured to join the collecting system to the rigid tube, one end of the flexible pipe being received within the rigid tube. The rigid tube comprises a channel, the channel being configured to allow separation of the rigid tube from the plate at the location of the channel.

An acoustic panel is provided that includes a perforated first skin, a second skin and a core. The core includes a first wall, a second wall and a stiffener. The core forms a plurality of cavities that extend vertically between the perforated first skin and the second skin and that extend laterally between the first wall and the second wall. The plurality of cavities include a first cavity. The stiffener projects partially into the first cavity and is connect to the first wall and the second wall.

Apparatuses and systems are provided herein for unducted propulsion systems. The system includes an aft housing for low drag for high subsonic sustained flight. A plurality of blades are affixed to the aft housing, wherein the housing defines a flowpath curve extending from the axial extent of the aft blade root to the aft end of the aft housing. The flowpath curve is described by an axial direction parallel to an axis of rotation and a radius from the axis of rotation. The flowpath curve includes first point having a first radius where the radius reaches a maximum aft of the aft blade root and a second point forward of the first point having a second radius where the radius stops decreasing. The ratio of the first radius to the second radius is greater than or equal to 1.081.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a nacelle for an engine, including a plurality of acoustic fairing assemblies disposed within an aft fan duct of the nacelle, wherein each acoustic fairing assembly of the plurality of acoustic fairing assemblies comprises: a fairing body comprising a plurality of acoustic cells; and a fairing face sheet comprising a plurality of perforations and configured to be attached to the fairing body.

A method is provided for disassembling a gas turbine engine. The gas turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustor section, a turbine section, a static structure and a bypass duct. The static structure houses and supports the compressor section, the combustor section and the turbine section. The static structure includes a turbine support structure. The bypass duct includes an inner duct wall, an outer duct wall and a bypass flowpath formed radially between the inner duct wall and the outer duct wall. The outer duct wall extends axially along the static structure and overlaps the turbine support structure. During the method, the turbine support structure is removed from the gas turbine engine while the outer duct wall remains installed.

A turbine engine assembly includes: a fan assembly; a turbine coupled to the fan assembly through a gearbox; a stationary component; and an assembly extending between the gearbox and the stationary component to couple the gearbox to the stationary component, wherein the assembly includes at least one vibration-reducing mechanism configured to isolate a vibratory response of the gearbox from the stationary component.
