Abstract

An apparatus for a heating, ventilating and air conditioning system may include an outer shell and a honeycomb structure. The outer shell may define an interior volume having an inlet and an outlet providing an airflow path therethrough. The honeycomb structure may be attached to the outer shell and disposed in the airflow path. The honeycomb structure may include a plurality of polygonal apertures extending substantially in a direction of the airflow. The honeycomb structure may deflect sound waves away from a predetermined area.
