Abstract

A gas turbine engine (20) disposed within a nacelle (42) is provided that includes an open rotor propulsion system (28), a compressor section (30), an airflow inlet (24), and an inlet panel structure actuation system (58). The airflow inlet (24) is in fluid communication with the compressor section (30). The airflow inlet (24) is defined by a plurality of inlet panel structures (56). Each inlet panel structure (56) includes an inlet side segment (60) and an outer panel segment (62). The inlet side segments (60) collectively define an outer radial surface (52) of the airflow inlet (24). The inlet side segment (60) and the outer panel segment (62) of each inlet panel structure (56) intersect at an inlet panel leading edge. The inlet panel structure actuation system (58) is configured to selectively actuate the inlet panel leading edge of each inlet panel structure (56) in a radial inward direction or in a radial outward direction.
