Abstract

An electric heater () for integration into an acoustic panel () having sound-penetrating pores () communicating with a sound-canceling medium. The heater () includes an electrically conductive layer () with resistance-setting apertures () filled with sealant (). Openings (), which contribute to the sound-penetrating pores (), extend through the sealant-filled apertures (). The acoustic panel () can be assimilated into an aircraft component, such as a nacelle inlet lip, which requires both noise-reducing and ice-protecting features.
