Problems solved by technology

Perforations can be formed in the patch, but in the overlap area the perforations are not aligned between the patch and the existing top skin so that the acoustic properties of the acoustic panels are diminished in the overlap area

Abstract

An acoustic panel (200) for an aircraft nacelle (100) may comprise a perforated first skin (220), a second skin (230), and a core (210) sandwiched between them. A damaged portion of the perforated first skin may be removed. A fiberglass ply (510) may be coupled to the acoustic panel. A pressure differential may cause the fiberglass ply to form dimples (515) within the perforations (325) of the first skin. The fiberglass ply may be used as a template to drill holes in a replacement patch (400).

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to acoustic panels, and more particularly, to a method of repairing acoustic panels while preserving their acoustic properties. Background technique [0002] Aircraft nacelle structures for turbine engines typically include acoustic panels comprising, for example, a back skin and a perforated top skin with core material sandwiched between them. In some cases, the acoustic panels may be formed during manufacture with an undesirable void between the top skin and core, or the top skin may delaminate from the core material during operation, or the top skin may be Damaged in other ways. Existing restoration techniques involve removing a portion of the roof skin and then replacing that portion with a patch that overlaps the existing roof skin. Perforations may be formed in the patch, but in the overlap region the perforations are not aligned between the patch and the existing top skin so that the acoustic properties of the ac...
