Abstract: An alternating clockwise and counterclockwise helicoid cell structure for use in acoustic panels. The cell structure geometry may be easily replicated and tiled using additive manufacturing. The cell structure has at least an outer cavity and an inner cavity. The cavities are coaxial, share the same height, same entrance side, and same cell structure floor. The inner cavity includes a number of equal-volume inner chambers rotated uniformly in a first direction around the shared central axis; and the outer cavity includes a second number of equal-volume outer chambers rotated uniformly in an opposite direction to the first direction around the shared central axis. In various embodiments, one or more perforated baffles may extend, internally, across a chamber, perpendicular to direction of sound waves at the location of the perforated baffle. In various embodiments, one or more port openings from the outer cavity to the inner cavity may be present.

Abstract: An accessory system for a gas turbine engine having a driveshaft with an axis of rotation is provided. The accessory system includes a towershaft coupled to the driveshaft and driven by the driveshaft along a towershaft axis of rotation. The accessory system also includes a shaft including a first shaft bevel gear coupled to a towershaft bevel gear. The shaft is rotatable by the towershaft along a shaft axis of rotation and defines an air-oil separator. The shaft axis of rotation is transverse to the towershaft axis of rotation. The accessory system includes a first accessory drive shaft having a first accessory bevel gear driven by the shaft. The accessory system also includes a second accessory drive shaft having a second accessory bevel gear driven by the shaft.

Abstract: An improved translating cowl (transcowl) assembly for a thrust reverser system for a turbine engine is provided. The transcowl assembly comprises an outer skin comprised of a first composite material and an inner skin comprised of a second composite material. The inner skin is configured to couple circumferentially within the outer skin, and creates a flow path for engine exhaust flow. The inner skin comprises a contoured depression configured to provide clearance for movement of a blocker door. A metallic bracket is disposed between the inner skin and outer skin.
