Thrust reverser cascade with one or more flow stabilizers
An apparatus is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This apparatus includes a thrust reverser cascade extending longitudinally between a cascade forward end and a cascade aft end. The thrust reverser cascade extends laterally between a cascade first side and a cascade second side. The thrust reverser cascade extends radially between a cascade inner face and a cascade outer face. The thrust reverser cascade includes a plurality of vanes and a wall. The vanes are arranged in a longitudinally extending array along the cascade inner face. The vanes include a first vane and a second vane. The wall is configured to block gas flow radially through the thrust reverser cascade between the first vane and the second vane.

ACOUSTIC TORQUE BOX
Aspects of the disclosure are directed to a fan ramp for use in a thrust reverser portion of a nacelle of a gas turbine engine, the fan ramp extending circumferentially about an axial fan ramp centerline. The fan ramp comprises a fan ramp forward edge disposed proximate an aft end of a fan case, the fan case at least partially surrounding a fan section of the gas turbine engine. The fan ramp also includes noise attenuating structure at a forward section of the fan ramp forward of a torque box.

Thrust reverser cascade with one or more flow disrupters
An apparatus is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This apparatus includes a cascade structure including a thrust reverser cascade and a flow disruptor. The thrust reverser cascade extends longitudinally between a cascade forward end and a cascade aft end. The thrust reverser cascade extends laterally between a cascade first side and a cascade second side. The thrust reverser cascade extends radially between an inner face and an outer face. The thrust reverser cascade includes a plurality of vanes arranged in a longitudinally extending array along the inner face. The flow disruptor is arranged at the cascade inner face and forward of the vanes. The flow disruptor is configured to disrupt boundary layer air flowing towards the vanes.
