ABSTRACT:
A multi-layer acoustic lining, e.g. for a flow duct in a gas turbine aeroengine, includes Helmholtz-type and tube-type resonators sandwiched between backing and facing sheets. In the invention, the ends of the tube-type resonators abut the Helmholtz resonators but are acoustically divided from them by partition means in such a way that the tube-type resonators differ from each other in resonant frequency. Variation of resonant frequency in the tube-type resonators is achieved by variation of their lengths according to which portion of the partition means acoustically divides them from the Helmholtz-type resonators, the partition means being arranged either step-wise or inclinedly between the backing and facing sheets.
