Abstract

A heat exchange and noise reduction panel the panel for an aircraft comprising: an external surface intended to be swept by an airflow and from which fins extend along a first and a second main predetermined direction; cavities forming Helmholtz resonators, linked to the first ends of channels for the passage of air, the second ends of which communicate with said airflow, such that said channels form necks, referred to as Helmholtz resonators, extending substantially along the first direction; and at least one oil flow chamber extending between said external surface and said at least one cavity, and intended to discharge the thermal energy carried by the oil, wherein said channels are formed, at least in part, inside said fins.

Claims (15)

1. A heat exchange and noise reduction panel for an aircraft turbine engine comprising:

an outer surface which is intended for being swept over by an air flow and from which fins extend in a first predetermined main direction and a second predetermined main direction, wherein the first predetermined main direction is perpendicular to the second predetermined main direction,

recesses and air-passage channels that cooperatively form Helmholtz resonators wherein each recess is connected to a first end of a corresponding one of the air-passage channels, a second end of which communicates with said air flow, such that said channels form necks of said Helmholtz resonators that extend through an interior of a corresponding one of the fins in the first direction of the fins and open on distal ends of the fins,

at least one oil circulation chamber which extends between said outer surface and said recesses and is intended for discharging thermal energy from the oil,

a stack consisting of said outer surface, said recesses and said at least one oil circulation chamber extending in the first direction,

wherein said channels extend uninterrupted from a corresponding one of the recesses to the distal end of the fin without any intervening apertures.

2. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein the fins are substantially normal or inclined with respect to the outer surface.

3. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein said channels open onto walls of the fins to form openings for communicating with a sound source to be attenuated.

4. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of said channels pass through each fin.

5. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein the channels have a substantially rectangular, circular or elliptical cross section.

6. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein said panel has a curved general shape and is designed to form a sector of an annular heat exchange and noise reduction casing.

7. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein the channels have a constant cross section or a general shape which is flared towards said recesses.

8. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein at least some of said recesses communicate with one another.

9. The heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 , wherein said channels have longitudinal axes which are substantially perpendicular to said outer surface or inclined with respect to said outer surface.

10. An aircraft turbine engine which comprises at least one heat exchange and noise reduction panel according to claim 1 .
