UNIT CELL RESONATOR NETWORKS FOR TURBOMACHINERY BYPASS FLOW STRUCTURES
An acoustic attenuation structure for a gas turbine engine includes a periodic structure having a first unit cell, the first unit cell having a first central body and a first axial tube disposed on the first central body and a second axial tube disposed on the first central body, opposite the first axial tube, each of the first axial tube and the second axial tube being in fluid communication with one another through the first central body.
Turbine engine with a flow splitter having a profile with inclined serrations
An airflow profile structure having a leading and/or trailing edge profiled with a serrated profile. The serrated profile has a succession of teeth and depressions, characterized in that, along the leading and/or trailing edge, from a first location to a second location, the teeth of the serrated profile are individually inclined towards the second location.

Airfoil tip pocket with augmentation features
A component for a gas turbine engine includes, among other things, an airfoil that includes a pressure sidewall and a suction sidewall that meet together at both a leading edge and a trailing edge, the airfoil extending radially from a platform to a tip, a tip pocket formed in the tip and terminating prior to the trailing edge, and one or more heat transfer augmentation devices formed in the tip pocket.
Variable geometry inlet system
A variable geometry inlet system of an aircraft engine includes an inlet duct. The inlet duct includes at least first and second sections moveable between extended and retracted positions such that the inlet duct defines a variable axial length of an inlet passage for selective flight conditions. The inclusion of acoustic treatment may assist in controlling noise.

Compartment unit for turbine engine
The present invention provides compartment(s) for a turbine engine, comprising a main compartment for receiving the turbine engine and an intake compartment disposed on a side of the main compartment. The intake compartment comprises: an intake compartment body, a gas filter device and a muffler device. The gas filter device and the muffler device are disposed outside the intake port of the intake compartment. The compartment unit is configured to have a first gas path which permits air for combustion in the turbine engine to pass from the external through the gas filter device and the first muffler device in turn into the intake compartment body, and then be delivered through the exhaust port of the intake compartment to the turbine engine in the main compartment.
