A seal is configured to establish a sealing relationship between the rotating structure and the stationary structure, and wherein an inlet to the flow path is adjacent the seal. A gas turbine engine and a method of disrupting acoustic waves in a flow path of a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.

A noise attenuation panel comprises a sound absorbing honeycomb layer disposed between a perforated surface layer on an airflow facing side of the panel and a composite support layer on a second opposing side of said panel. The composite material support layer comprises an electrical heat source.

Hybrid turbomachine comprising an electric generator, a gas generator equipped with an air inlet and with an exhaust and an acoustic monitoring system comprising a control unit and a plurality of loudspeakers.

At least a first loudspeaker is disposed on the electric generator, and/or at least a second loudspeaker is disposed on the air inlet of the gas generator, and/or at least a third loudspeaker is disposed on the exhaust of the gas generator.

The control unit of the acoustic monitoring system is mounted on the electric generator and is configured to make an AC-DC electrical conversion of the electromotive force of the electric generator into an adjustable DC voltage intended to be distributed to loads or to energy storage means.

A reference microphone for detecting noise is located under a first duct. The noise is in the form of a first plane wave in the first duct. A speaker is located on a top of the first duct. Connected to an upper part of the first duct is a second duct including an error microphone. The first plane wave in the first duct passes through an acoustic path and reaches the second duct. The error microphone detects the sound, and the speaker outputs a second plane wave with an opposite phase for canceling the first plane wave.

A box-shaped air intake silencer with vertical baffles for a gas turbine system. The box-shaped silencer has a silencer housing having opposing ends with a first end closed and a second end opened to permit passage of air. Opposing sidewalls extend between the first end and the second end with each of the sidewalls operative to receive a perpendicular flow of intake air. A silencer having vertically, spaced baffles are disposed within the housing. A first end of the baffles face the first end of the housing and a second end of the baffles faces the second end of the housing. Each of the baffles extend horizontally between the first end and the second end of the housing. The baffles receive the perpendicular flow of intake air proximate the first end of the housing and direct the intake air towards the second end of the housing for passage therethrough.

An active device for attenuating the acoustic emissions of an aircraft turbojet engine includes circulation conduits for a pressurized air flow rate supplying rotary elements each having a pulsation system for the delivered air. The rotary elements are controlled in amplitude and phase and deliver, to outlet diffusers, a pulsed air flow rate with a pulsation at the frequency of the noise to be attenuated having an amplitude and a phase adjusted according to a local feedback law with microphones to attenuate the radiated acoustic power.

According to one embodiment, a system for reducing interference noise of rotor and stator blades includes rotor blades, stator blades, loudspeakers, one or more reference microphones, and a controller. The rotor blades rotate about a central axis. The loudspeakers are discretely arranged on a circle that has a center positioned on the central axis. Each loudspeaker generates a control sound. The controller causes the loudspeakers to generate control sounds of a same phase and a same amplitude. The control sounds correspond to the loudspeakers. The r is selected based on a preset attenuation level concerning the interference noise, and the k, where a is a length of the rotor blades, b is a radius of the circle, r=a/b, k is an upper limit wavenumber.

A steam turbine 1 includes a turbine body 11 which includes a rotor 5 which is configured to rotate around an axis Ac, and a casing 6 which covers the rotor 5 to form a flow path through which steam flows in an axis Ac direction, together with the rotor 5, a thermal insulation member 12 which is provided to be in contact with an outer surface of the casing 6 in a high-pressure side region 61 out of the high-pressure side region 61 and a low-pressure side region 62 of the steam in the axis Ac direction of the casing 6, and a soundproof cover 13 which covers the low-pressure side region 62 out of the high-pressure side region 61 and the low-pressure side region 62 via a space between the outer surface of the casing 6 and the soundproof cover 13.

An aerofoil component (10) defining an in use leading edge (16) and a trailing edge (18), the leading edge (16) comprising at least one serration (22) defining a sawtooth profile projecting in a generally upstream direction, each serration (22) comprising a plurality of rectangular-wave projections (26) extending in an upstream chordwise direction from the sawtooth profile.
