Method for manufacturing a turbine-engine fan casing having an acoustic coating

摘要

A method for manufacturing a turbine engine fan casing includes placing a fiber structure constituting the fiber reinforcement of a composite material inside skin of an acoustic coating on a tooling element, and then shaping the fiber preform constituting the fiber reinforcement of an abradable casing on the tooling element with cellular structures of acoustic coating and abradable coating cartridges, if any, being interposed. Both the fiber preform of the casing as impregnated by a precursor resin for the matrix of the composite material of the casing, and also the fiber structure of the inside skin of the acoustic coating as impregnated with a precursor resin for the matrix of the composite material of the inside skin are subjected to resin polymerizing heat treatment, and the inside skin of the acoustic coating is multiply perforated so an assembly is obtained that comprises the casing with an incorporated acoustic coating.

1. A method for manufacturing a turbine engine fan casing having an abradable coating on its inside face extending over a fraction of its axial dimension at a distance from upstream and downstream ends of the casing, and an acoustic coating arranged downstream and/or upstream of the abradable coating, the inside surfaces of the abradable coating and of the acoustic coating defining at least a portion of the wall of an air inlet passage, the casing being made of composite material comprising fiber reinforcement densified by a resin precursor matrix, the method comprising:
using a tooling element having a profile corresponding to the profile of the air inlet passage; depositing a fiber structure that is to constitute fiber reinforcement of a composite material inside skin of the acoustic coating on the tooling element at a location corresponding to the location of the acoustic coating; placing cellular structures of the acoustic coating in the form of sectors over said fiber structure; shaping a fiber preform that is to constitute the fiber reinforcement of the casing on the tooling element with cellular structures of the acoustic coating being interposed between them; subjecting both the fiber preform of the casing as held in its shape and impregnated with a precursor resin for the matrix of the composite material of the casing and also the fiber structure of the inside skin of the acoustic coating as impregnated with a precursor resin for the matrix of the composite material of said inside skin to common resin polymerizing heat treatment; and multiply perforating the inside skin of the acoustic coating after the precursor resin for the matrix of the composite material of said inside skin has polymerized; whereby an assembly is obtained that comprises the casing assembled together with an incorporated acoustic coating comprising said cellular structures and said multiply perforated inside skin.
