Description
ACOUSTIC PANEL RETENTION
This invention relates to the retention of acoustic panels on a support structure. It is particularly concerned with the retention of acoustic panels on the fan casing and other parts of a ducted fan gas turbine engine for aircraft propulsion.
Ducted fan gas turbine engines typically have air-washed surfaces within their fan ducts to which it is desirable to attach acoustic panels for sound attenuation purposes. Such panels conventionally comprise two sheets of material between which is interposed a layer of honeycomb material. The sheet which defines at least part of the air-washed surface is perforate in order to permit sound energy generated within the fan duct access to the cells of the honeycomb material.
The cells serve to attenuate that sound energy in the conventional manner. The use of such acoustic panels in ducted fan gas turbine engines is widespread and will not, therefore, be described in further detail.
It is necessary to attach such acoustic panels to a support structure, such as the fan casing of the ducted fan gas turbine engine, in such a way that the panels are easily removable in the event of damage. Conventionally, this is achieved by bolting the panels to the support structure.
However, the honeycomb material of the acoustic panels is easily damaged by crushing. Consequently it is necessary to provide local reinforcement of the honeycomb material in order to avoid such damage by the attachment bolts.
One common way of providing such local reinforcement is to fill a number of adjacent honeycomb cells in the region of each attachment bolt with a suitably strong material and then to machine a bolt reception feature in those filled cells.
There are drawbacks with this approach however. One drawback is that since a number of cells in the region of one bolt are filled, they can no longer provide sound attenuation. Consequently there is an adverse effect upon the overall sound attenuation efficiency of the acoustic panel. A further drawback is that it is very difficult to ensure that the mounting bolts do not stand proud of the air-washed surface of the acoustic panel and thereby impose performance penalties on the engine.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an acoustic panel which may be attached to a support structure in a way that has little effect upon the sound attenuation characteristics of the panel and also upon the aerodynamic efficiency of the air-washed surface of the panel.
According to the present invention, an acoustic panel comprises a layer of cellular honeycomb material interposed between and interconnecting two layers of sheet material, one of which is perforate, whereby at least one of the cells of said cellular honeycomb material interconnects said layers of sheet material and contains a boss which abuts both of said layers of sheet material, said boss and the portions of said layers of sheet material adjacent thereto being apertured to receive common means for attaching said acoustic panel to a support structure.
Said boss is preferably of cylindrical configuration so that it engages the walls of the cell it occupies.
Said boss and the portion of said perforate sheet it engages are preferably provided with corresponding indentations which are so configured that said fastener is positioned flush with the external surface of said perforate sheet.
Said indentations are preferably of generally frustoconical form to receive a fastener that is in the form of a screw having a countersink head.
The present invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a partially sectioned side view of a ducted fan gas turbine engine provided with acoustic panels in accordance with the present invention.
Figure 2 is a perspective view of a portion of an acoustic panel on the engine shown in Figure 1 which is in accordance with the present invention and which has been partially broken away in order to reveal its internal structure.
Figure 3 is a sectioned side view of a portion of the acoustic panel shown in Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a view on the section line A-A of Figure 3.
With reference to Figure 1, a ducted fan gas turbine engine 10, is enclosed within a generally annular nacelle 11 and is supported from an aircraft (not shown) by a pylon 12, part of which can be seen in the Figure. The engine 10 is of conventional configuration comprising a core engine 13 which powers a propulsive fan 14 at its upstream end. The core engine 13 is of smaller diameter than the fan 14 so that an annular fan duct 15 is defined between the radially outer surface of the core engine and the radially inner surface of the nacelle 11.
In operation, the fan 14 is rotated by the core engine 13 to draw air into the nacelle 11 through an intake at its upstream end 16. The air so drawn in is compressed by the fan 14 before being divided into two flows. The first flow is directed into the core engine 13 where it is compressed further before being mixed with fuel and the mixture ignited.
The resultant hot combustion products then expand through turbines within the core engine 13 before exhausting through a propulsive nozzle 17 at the downstream end of the core engine 13 to provide propulsive thrust.
The second flow of air compressed by the fan 14 is directed into the annular fan duct 15 from where it is exhausted at the downstream end of the nacelle 11 to provide additional propulsive thrust.
The radially outer surface of the core engine 13 and the radially inner surface of the nacelle 11 ie those surfaces which define the annular duct 15, are covered by a plurality of acoustic panels 18, part of one of which can be seen in
Figures 2 to 4. The acoustic panels are all of generally similar construction and serve to provide sound attenuation of the engine 10.
Essentially, each acoustic panel 18 is made up of two layers 19 and 20 of a suitable sheet metallic material, such as stainless steel, between which is interposed a layer of metallic honeycomb material 21. The honeycomb material 21 is arranged so that each of its cells 22 interconnects the two sheet metal layers 19 and 20. Thus, each cell 22 is generally radially extending. The sheet metal layers 19 and 20 are bonded to the honeycomb material 21 by any convenient medium such as braze or a suitable adhesive.
The sheet metal layer 19 which confronts the annular duct 15, as can be seen in Figure 2, contains a large number of small holes 30 so that it is perforate. This is so as to provide an interconnection between the fan duct 15 and the honeycomb cells 22, thereby permitting the honeycomb cells 22 to provide sound attenuation of the air flow through the annular duct 15. Thus, the acoustic panels 18 are of conventional configuration and function in the conventional manner. Although in this particular case, the sheet metal layer 19 is perforate through having a plurality of holes 30 in it, it may be desirable in certain cases for the sheet 19 to be perforate through being formed from a naturally perforate material such as metallic gauze.
The present invention is concerned with the manner in which the acoustic panels 18 are attached to the core engine 13 and to the nacelle 11.
The acoustic panels 18 are situated in a vulnerable location which makes them prone to damage by objects that may be ingested by the engine 10. It is highly desirable, therefore, that the panels 18 are attached to the nacelle 11 and core engine 13 in such a manner that they could be easily removed and replaced in the event of such damage. The present invention is directed to such a manner of attachment.
Specifically, one or more of the honeycomb cells 22 in each acoustic panel 18 contains a cylindrical boss 23 which has a central passage 25 extending therethrough as can be seen in Figures 3 and 4. Each boss 23 is of such a diameter that it abuts each of the walls of the honeycomb cell 22 in which is situated and is of such a length that it abuts both of the layers 19 and 20 of sheet metal material. The end of the boss 23 which abuts the non-perforate sheet metal layer 20 is flat. However, the end of the boss 23 which abuts the perforate sheet metal layer is provided with a countersink indentation 24. Thus the indentation 24 is of frusto-conical configuration.
The portion of the perforate sheet metal layer 19 adjacent the boss indentation 24 is locally deformed to follow the frusto-conical configuration of the indentation 24. An aperture 26 is provided in the perforate sheet metal layer 19 which is aligned with the central passage 25 of the boss 23. Similarly an aperture 31 is provided in the other sheet metal layer 20 which is aligned with the central passage 25 of the boss 23.
The apertures 26 and 31 in the perforate sheet metal layer 19 and the other sheet metal layer 20 respectively, and the central passage 25 of the boss 23 are dimensioned to receive a screw 27. The screw 27 is provided with a countersink head 28 which locates in the locally deformed portion of the perforate sheet metal layer 19. The screw 27 extends through the boss 23 to engage within a support structure 29, thereby attaching the panel 18 to the support structure 29 while avoiding crushing of the honeycomb material 21. In this particular case, the support structure 29 is a part of the casing 30 which surrounds the fan 14.
However, it will be appreciated that it could be any other suitable part of the core engine 13 or nacelle 11.
Each acoustic panel 18 is provided with sufficient of the screws 27 to retain it in position on the engine 10.
It will be seen, therefore, that the head of the screw 28 is flush with the outer surface of the perforate sheet metal layer 19. Consequently, the screw 28 has little effect upon the airflow which operationally flows over the outer surface of the perforate sheet metal layer 19. A further advantage of the arrangement of the present invention is that the boss 23 and screw 28 combination only occupy a single cell 22 of the honeycomb material 21 rather than a group of adjacent cells 22. This means that there is only minimal disruption to the sound attenuation properties of the acoustic panels 18 by this particular way of attaching the panels 18 to a suitable support structure 29. Moreover, since the manufacturing step of filling several cells with a suitable filler material is avoided, manufacture of the acoustic panels 18 is simplified.
