Abstract
An apparatus is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This apparatus includes a cascade structure including a thrust reverser cascade and a flow disruptor. The thrust reverser cascade extends longitudinally between a cascade forward end and a cascade aft end. The thrust reverser cascade extends laterally between a cascade first side and a cascade second side. The thrust reverser cascade extends radially between an inner face and an outer face. The thrust reverser cascade includes a plurality of vanes arranged in a longitudinally extending array along the inner face. The flow disruptor is arranged at the cascade inner face and forward of the vanes. The flow disruptor is configured to disrupt boundary layer air flowing towards the vanes.
