An acoustic treatment device for an aircraft turbojet engine nacelle forms an annular ring including several sections, each section having a sound absorption structure, an outer skin and two lateral skins attached to the inner air inlet shroud of such a nacelle by fasteners, and the sections being connected to each other by battens.

An aircraft nacelle including a conduit rigidly connected to an air inlet and a conduit rigidly connected to an engine, a link between the conduit rigidly connected to the air inlet and the conduit rigidly connected to the engine. The link includes a sleeve that receives one end of a first conduit and is rigidly connected to a second conduit, and linking elements that link the sleeve and the first conduit and that are distributed about the entire circumference of the nacelle, each linking element having a threaded stem oriented in a radial direction and being configured to enable tightening from inside the first conduit.

The invention relates to acoustic management, on an aircraft turbomachine (3,12) or on a nacelle (1,10), via a panel (30,32). On a support (38) is reserved a recess (34), recessed with respect to a surrounding general surface (36) for contact with moving air. The recess (34) is adapted to receive the panel, as another so-called surface for contact with moving air. The support (38) and/or the panel comprise removable connecting elements for, in the recess (34), mounting it removably with respect to the support, the panel being an acoustic panel or a non-acoustic panel.

An aircraft engine nacelle for coupling to a wing of an aircraft is disclosed having a fore end, and an aft end that is immoveable relative to the fore end. The aft end includes a major axis Mj and a minor axis Mi, and the nacelle is configured such the minor axis Mi is closer to vertical V than the major axis Mj when the nacelle is coupled to the wing and the aircraft is stationary on the ground. An aircraft system and an aircraft are disclosed each including the aircraft engine nacelle.

A ramjet including: a combustion area having an air inlet and an exhaust outlet; and a fuel cell in fluid communication with the air inlet and a fuel supply of the ramjet, wherein the fuel cell is in thermal communication with the combustion area.

A jet engine includes a housing, an intake portion leading into the housing, and an exhaust portion leading from the housing. The exhaust portion includes an exhaust duct and a tail cone arranged radially inwardly of the exhaust duct. An engine portion is arranged in the housing between the intake portion and the exhaust portion. A generator is arranged in the tail cone and is operatively connected to the engine portion. A drive shaft extends from the engine portion to the generator. The drive shaft includes a first end coupled to the engine portion, a second end connected to the generator, and an intermediate portion extending therebetween. The intermediate portion includes a cooling passage that extends from the second end toward a terminal end that terminates short of the first end of the drive shaft.

An air-breathing turbojet engine for a hypersonic vehicle is shown. The engine comprises a pump for pumping a cryogenic fuel, an inlet configured to compress inlet air by one or more shocks, a cooler to cool the compressed inlet air using the cryogenic fuel, and a turbo-compressor to compress the air further. A precooler cools the compressed inlet air using compressed cooled air from the turbo-compressor. A combustor receives compressed cooled air from the turbo-compressor and a first portion of the cryogenic fuel for combustion. A first turbine expands and is driven by combustion products, and a second turbine expands and is driven by a second portion of the cryogenic fuel. The first turbine and the second turbine drive the turbo-compressor via a shaft. An afterburner receives combustion products from the first turbine and the second portion of the cryogenic fuel from the second turbine for combustion therein.

A supersonic jet aircraft and a method of operating the same. The supersonic jet aircraft having at least three turbofan engines and an engine management computer. A first engine of the at least three turbofan engines is configured to be de-activatable during flight to move from an operational state in which it provides thrust to an operational state in which it stops providing thrust. Other engines of the at least three turbofan engines are configured to provide sufficient thrust to the supersonic jet aircraft when the first engine is de-activated such that the aircraft can perform a supersonic climb operation and/or a supersonic cruise operation.

An air-breathing turbojet engine (101) for a hypersonic vehicle is shown. The engine comprises a pump for pumping a cryogenic fuel, an inlet (102) configured to compress inlet air by one or more shocks, a cooler (103) to cool the compressed inlet air using the cryogenic fuel, and a turbo-compressor (104) to compress the air further. A combustor (105) receives compressed cooled air from the turbo-compressor and a first portion of the cryogenic fuel for combustion. A first turbine (106) expands and is driven by combustion products, and a second turbine (107) expands and is driven by a second portion of the cryogenic fuel. The first turbine and the second turbine drive the turbo-compressor via a shaft. An afterburner (109) receives combustion products from the first turbine and the second portion of the cryogenic fuel from the second turbine for combustion therein.
