Abstract

Damping of the leading edge of a cantilevered mounted liner for the augmentor of a gas turbine engine is obtained by incorporating a generally annular shaped member having a U-shaped cross section and encapsulating the leading edge of the liner in the U-shaped portion of the annular member. A split ring may be included in the U-shaped portion to augment the damping function.
