Abstract
An aircraft nacelle includes a wave attenuation panel which limits or prevents the propagation of at least one wave produced during the pumping of the power plant and includes a layer that is in contact with the air flow that can allow passage of the at least one wave, at least one alveolar structure, and a reflective or impermeable layer, wherein the wave attenuation panel is inserted between the air intake and the power plant, and the layer that is in contact with the air flow ensures the continuity of the aerodynamic surfaces that are arranged downstream and upstream and the wave attenuation panel includes inserts that can be inserted between the air intake and the power plant so as not to crush the wave attenuation panel.
