Abstract

See full text

An element (26) for sound absorption is intended for being mounted on components of aircrafts, such as engine nacelles. The element includes a face-sheet (28), which is, at least in a region thereof, acoustically permeable, a substantially sound-reflective back-sheet (30) and a honeycomb layer (32), “sandwiched” between the face-sheet (28) and the back-sheet (30) and defining a mesh structure which has hollow cells (34, 34′) laterally neighboring one another. The cells (34, 34′) are adapted to make the sound waves that enter through the face-sheet (28) and are reflected by the back-sheet (30) resonate inside their side walls. The element (26) has a passage (36) that connects together a group of the cells (34, 34′), thereby causing the cells to acoustically cooperate with one another.
