Patent attributes
A center plug for attenuating noise in a gas turbine engine includes an inner skin, a forward bulkhead, and aft bulkhead, and a noise attenuation panel. The inner skin has a substantially cylindrical shape and extending along an axial centerline. The forward bulkhead is disposed proximate a forward end of the inner skin. The forward bulkhead is connected to and extends radially outward from the inner skin. The aft bulkhead is disposed proximate an aft end of the inner skin. The aft bulkhead is connected to and extending radially outward from the inner skin. The noise attenuation panel is positioned intermediate the inner skin and partially divides a region bounded by the inner skin, the forward bulkhead and the aft bulkhead into.
