A diffuser may comprise an inlet and an outlet. The inlet may comprise an arcuate shape. The outlet may comprise an annular shape. The diffuser may transition from the arcuate shape at the inlet to the annular shape at the outlet. The diffuser may comprise a radially inner wall and a radially outer wall disposed opposite the radially inner wall. The radially inner wall and the radially outer wall may partially define a duct.

An air direction arrangement for an aircraft. The air direction arrangement contains an inlet opening and an inlet channel connected thereto and which is at least partially surrounded by an outer wall. The inlet channel is configured to guide air to an engine of the aircraft. The outer wall contains at least one outlet channel and at least one outlet element. The outlet element is configured to selectively release or close the outlet channel for an air flow from the inlet channel into the environment of the aircraft. The air direction arrangement contains a heat exchanger in the outlet channel to discharge thermal energy to the air flow which is flowing from the inlet channel into the environment of the aircraft.

A method for repairing a turbomachine air intake lip including a damaged area whose shape differs from the initial shape of the lip, includes identifying the damage; depositing a filler material on the damaged area so as to give it a shape identical to the initial shape; inspecting the shape of the lip; and inspecting the performed repair.

A vehicle, includes a main body. A fluid generator is coupled to the main body and produces a fluid stream. At least one fore conduit and at least one tail conduit are fluidly coupled to the generator. First and second fore ejectors are fluidly coupled to the fore conduit, coupled to the main body and respectively coupled to a starboard side and port side of the vehicle. The fore ejectors respectively comprise an outlet structure out of which fluid flows. At least one tail ejector is fluidly coupled to the tail conduit. The tail ejector comprises an outlet structure out of which fluid flows. A primary airfoil element is coupled to the tail portion. A surface of the primary airfoil element is located directly downstream of the first and second fore ejectors such that the fluid from the first and second fore ejectors flows over the such surface.

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.

Aspects of the invention regard an aircraft including: a gas turbine engine, the gas turbine engine including an intake, a nacelle, and gas turbine engine components located radially inside the nacelle; and an aircraft structure. The intake of the gas turbine engine is mounted to the aircraft structure in a manner such that its position can be adjusted. The nacelle and the gas turbine engine components located radially inside the nacelle are rigidly mounted to the aircraft structure. Other aspects of the invention regard a gas turbine engine and a method for adjusting the input of air flowing into a gas turbine engine.

An aerial vehicle includes a housing, a propulsion system supported within the housing, and an inlet assembly supported by an outer surface of the housing. The inlet assembly includes: at least one fluid channel in fluid communication with the propulsion system; and a first scoop coupled to the housing and movable between a stowed position and a deployed position. The first scoop is aligned with the housing in the stowed position to prevent air from entering the propulsion system, and the first scoop projects from the outer surface of the housing in the deployed position to direct air through the at least one fluid channel and into the propulsion system to generate thrust. The inlet assembly includes a flap disposed upstream of the first scoop. The flap is moveable between a flap stowed position and a flap deployed position.

An acoustic panel with a cellular core includes cells that are provided with one or more obstacles, each of the obstacles extending transversely in relation to the main axis of the associated cell so as to increase the length of the path (F) that sound waves travel through the cell. Methods enabling the production of such a panel implements steps of cutting, folding and bonding that are suitable for creating cells provided with such obstacles.

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.

An attachment system intended to equip a wall (17), the system including a nut intended to receive a screw (31) of which the orientation is normal to the wall (17), the screw (31) passing through an element such as an outer panel (32) in order to attach the element to the wall (17). The attachment system comprises a socket (26) having a threaded cylindrical outer face (34) intended to be screwed into a hole (29) passing through the wall (17) and having dimensions greater than the dimensions of the fastener that the repair socket (26) replaces, the socket (26) carrying, in the central region of same, a nut (28) receiving the attachment screw (32).
