FLUIDIC PROPULSION SYSTEM ENCLOSURE
Fluidic propulsion system enclosures are described, including a high-pressure gas source container, a high-pressure gas source inlet, an ambient air inlet, a thruster container, a thruster outlet in fluid communication with the high-pressure gas source inlet and the ambient air inlet, and a housing substantially surrounding and interconnecting the high-pressure gas source container and the thruster container. The enclosure may include sound and/or energy abatement baffles within the housing, which may be arranged between the high-pressure gas source container and the thruster container.
Turbomachine test bench with active noise control
A test bench for turbomachine comprising: an installation zone for turbomachine; an active system for attenuating the noise emissions produced by the turbomachine. The active system includes an attenuation zone with emitters such as loudspeakers; a first microphone placed downstream of the turbomachine; and a second microphone placed downstream of the attenuation zone. The system reduces the turbomachine waves on the basis of the measurements from the first microphone and from the second microphone. The invention also proposes a method for attenuating the noise emissions from the turbomachine tested in the test bench.

Structural and/or acoustic panel of a nacelle of an aircraft propulsion assembly and related manufacturing method
A panel for a nacelle of an aircraft propulsion assembly includes two skins and a cell structure provided with transverse partitions defining cells. The cell structure includes folds with at least one central part forming at least one part of at least one transverse partition and at least one peripheral part extending along at least one of the skins. A nacelle with such a panel is provided, as well as a method for manufacturing such a panel.
Supersonic aircraft and method of reducing sonic booms and jet noise
Provided is a supersonic aircraft including: a shield that shields an engine exhaust flow discharged from a jet engine accommodated in an engine nacelle mounted on a fuselage of the aircraft to thereby reduce sonic booms due to the engine exhaust flow; and an exhaust nozzle that is provided in an exhaust port of the engine nacelle and that generates a sound source for high-frequency components at a position at which the shield is capable of shielding the high-frequency components of the engine exhaust flow, to thereby reduce jet noise having the high-frequency components, and promotes mixing of the engine exhaust flow that generates low-frequency noise components with an external air flow to thereby reduce jet noise having the low-frequency components.
