Abstract
A turbine engine resonator comprising a panel and a vessel. The panel is along a flow path within the engine and has an aperture. The vessel has a mounting flange secured to the panel. The flange has an aperture mated to the aperture of the panel. The vessel has a body secured to the mounting flange with an interior of the body in communication with the flange aperture. A first portion of the panel extends into the mounting flange aperture and may redirect a leakage flow, if any, to limit an effect of leakage upon resonator performance.
