Abstract
An air intake for a nacelle for an aircraft engine includes a front lip connecting a substantially cylindrical internal wall and a substantially cylindrical external wall, and at least one acoustic structure including acoustic cells. The acoustic structure is situated in the space delimited by the internal wall, the external wall and the front lip. The acoustic structure is an added part secured to the air intake. The acoustic cells of the acoustic structure are arranged facing a region of the internal wall or of the lip at a predetermined distance so that the acoustic cells of the acoustic structure are not in contact with the internal wall or the lip while providing an acoustic attenuation function.
