COMBUSTION CHAMBER FOR A GAS TURBINE ENGINE
A combustion chamber for a gas turbine engine includes: an inner wall delimiting an inner volume of the combustion chamber, through which combustion gas flow from a burner to a gas turbine of the gas turbine engine, a plurality of dampening cavities for the dampening of thermo-acoustic vibrations in the combustion gas, each dampening cavity communicating with the inner volume through at least a dampening hole on the inner wall, at least a cooling passage for a cooling medium flowing outside the inner volume in thermal contact with the inner wall, each dampening cavity having at least a purging hole communicating with the cooling passage for purging a portion of the cooling medium through the dampening cavities to the inner volume.
METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A STRUCTURE WITH CELLULAR CORES FOR A TURBOJET NACELLE
A method for manufacturing an alveolar core structure includes at least one cell including a secondary duct having a first end defining a sound wave inlet, and an opposite second end, the secondary duct comprising a sound wave outlet. The method also includes a fastening step in which adhesive tapes transverse to the longitudinal direction of said first plate are applied on a first longitudinal plate. The secondary duct in the form of a flattened element is fastened, on the first plate, by gluing at its sound wave inlet. A second plate is applied. A step of deploying the first and second plates so as to form the peripheral wall of the cells and so that the flattened element is deployed.
Laminates of polysilazane and carbon fiber reinforced polymer
Disclosed are laminates comprising a carbon fiber reinforced polymer sheet and a layer of polysilazane and methods for producing such laminates.
Transpirationally cooled exhaust center body for an aircraft propulsion system
An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This assembly includes an exhaust center body and a duct system. The exhaust center body includes an exterior skin. The duct system is fluidly coupled with a plurality of exterior skin perforations in the exterior skin. The duct system is configured to direct bypass air received from a bypass flow path within the aircraft propulsion system to the exterior skin perforations.
MULTI-CORE ACOUSTIC PANEL FOR AN AIRCRAFT PROPULSION SYSTEM
An apparatus is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This apparatus includes an acoustic panel and a mount. The acoustic panel includes a perforated face skin, a back skin, a perforated intermediate layer, a first cellular core and a second cellular core. The first cellular core includes a first section and a second section. The first section is between and is connected to the perforated face skin and the perforated intermediate layer. The second section is between and is connected to the perforated face skin and the back skin. The second cellular core is between and is connected to the perforated intermediate layer and the back skin. The mount is attached to the back skin along the second section.
ULTRA QUIET SPLIT FLOW THRUST REVERSER
A thrust reverser system for jet aircraft comprising an exhaust tailpipe mounted to the turbine engine aft turbine flange, clamshell doors, actuators and locking systems to prevent inadvertent deployment of the clamshell doors. Improved design clamshell doors shrouding the tailpipe fitted with two patented design actuators, enclosed between the doors and the tailpipe. The actuators throw the doors behind the tailpipe exhaust exit area using improved linkages attached to the tailpipe and the doors, to reverse the exhaust gases forward. The tailpipe can be of circular or any geometric shape. Reverse Exhaust gases are enclosed between the doors and two movable fairings. Several sound attenuation configurations provisions for the tailpipe, the fixed and movable fairings. Three independent locking systems provisions to prevent inadvertent deployment of the doors.
RESONATING PATCH AND ACOUSTIC TREATMENT CELL PROVIDED WITH SUCH A PATCH
Resonating patch for acoustic treatment comprising a resonant plate, a transducer and an electrical circuit electrically connected to the transducer, the resonant plate comprising a peripheral strip extending along the perimeter of the resonant plate.
The patch comprises cutouts together defining deformable lamellae having at least one end connected to the peripheral strip.
ACOUSTIC PANEL AND METHOD OF FORMING SAME
An acoustic panel includes a front skin comprising a plurality of apertures, a back skin, and a core positioned between the front skin and the back skin. The core includes at least one primary core portion including a honeycomb structure defining a plurality of cavities extending from the front skin to the back skin. The core further includes a secondary core portion external to the at least one primary core portion and including a foam structure extending from the front skin to the back skin.
Structural panel with integrated coupler
An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This assembly includes a cowl door movable between a closed position and an open position. The cowl door includes a structural panel and a mount. The structural panel includes an inner skin, an outer skin and a cellular core. The cellular core is connected to and arranged between the inner skin and the outer skin. The mount includes a base and a coupler. The base is connected to and arranged between the inner skin and the outer skin. The coupler projects out from the base.
TURBOFAN ENGINE AND METHOD OF OPERATING SAME
The auxiliary duct can branch radially outwardly from the bypass duct, have a proximal end fluidly connecting the bypass duct and a distal end, a valve can be activatable to selectively open and close the auxiliary passage, and a structure can protrude partially from the auxiliary duct into the auxiliary passage, the structure spaced apart from the proximal end, between the proximal end and the valve, the structure generating lesser pressure losses when flow in the auxiliary passage is directed towards the distal end than when the flow is directed towards the proximal end.
