Acoustic absorber having conical inserts
An acoustic absorber includes a wall provided with a plurality of apertures as well as a substantially non-perforated second wall, with the first wall and the second wall being spacedly arranged to one another, and at least one honeycomb structure being provided between the walls, with the honeycomb structure having a substantially cylindrical recess in at least one area, with a funnel element opening to the first and second walls being provided in the recess, and having a height greater than the distance of the walls, with the second wall being designed pot-like in the area of the funnel element.
1. An acoustic absorber including:
a first wall including a plurality of apertures;
a substantially non-perforated second wall, with the first wall and the second wall being spacedly arranged to one another, and
at least one honeycomb structure being provided between the first and second walls, the honeycomb structure including:
a substantially cylindrical recess in at least one area;
a shaped element having at least one chosen from a conical and a horn shape opening to the first and second walls being provided in the substantially cylindrical recess, and having a height greater than a distance between the first and second walls;
the second wall shaped pot-like in an area of the shaped element with an interior of the pot-like shaped portion facing the shaped element and receiving a portion of the shaped element to accommodate the greater height of the shaped element.
2. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the shaped element includes a flange which contacts an inside of the first wall.
3. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the shaped element is attached to the first wall by the flange.
4. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 2 , wherein the flange is non-perforated.
5. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the first wall is formed as at least one chosen from a perforated plate, a micro-perforated plate and a mesh.
6. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein open honeycombs adjacent to the substantially cylindrical recess of the honeycomb structure are at least partially filled for forming the substantially cylindrical recess.
7. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein in the substantially cylindrical recess of the honeycomb structure a tube-like insert element is arranged for forming a cylindrical wall.
8. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein a plurality of shaped elements are provided in even geometrical arrangement.
9. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein a plurality of shaped elements are provided in uneven geometrical arrangement in accordance with sound waves applied to the absorber.
10. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the substantially cylindrical recess of the honeycomb structure is formed by a honeycomb structure including a plurality of individual cells having diameters sufficiently large to each accept a shaped element.
11. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the honeycomb structure on a bottom side relative to an installation position of the absorber is provided with circumferential drainage slots.
12. The acoustic absorber in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the honeycomb structure is provided with circumferential drainage slots on both a flow-facing side and a rear side.
13. The acoustic absorber absorber in accordance with claim 1 in an aircraft gas-turbine engine.
14. An acoustic absorber including:
a first wall including a plurality of apertures;
a substantially non-perforated second wall, with the first wall and the second wall being spacedly arranged to one another, and
at least one honeycomb structure being provided between the first and second walls, the honeycomb structure including:
a substantially cylindrical recess in at least one area;
a shaped element having at least one chosen from a conical and a horn shape opening to the first and second walls being provided in the substantially cylindrical recess, and having a height greater than a distance between the first and second walls;
the second wall shaped pot-like in an area of the shaped element to receive a portion of the shaped element and accommodate the greater height of the shaped element;
wherein open honeycombs adjacent to the substantially cylindrical recess of the honeycomb structure are at least partially filled for forming the substantially cylindrical recess.
