An improved acoustic liner for turbine engines is disclosed. The acoustic liner may include a straight cell section including a plurality of cells with straight chambers. The acoustic liner may also include a bent cell section including one or more cells that are bent to extend chamber length without increasing the overall height of the acoustic liner by the entire chamber length. In some cases, holes are placed between cell chambers in addition to bending the cells, or instead of bending the cells.

1. An acoustic liner, comprising: a plurality of cells, each cell having a length, configured to absorb or dampen acoustic waves;a predetermined noise spectrum comprising one or more frequencies for attenuation through absorption and dampening; andwherein one or more cell lengths is varied by interconnecting one or more adjacent cells through a hole in a common wall between the one or more adjacent cells to create a longer acoustic path length configured to absorb or dampen longer acoustic waves at lower frequencies, where each cell length can be tuned to attenuate a corresponding frequency of the predetermined noise spectrum. 2. An acoustic liner of claim 1, further comprising one or more perforated septums within one or more cells. 3. An acoustic liner of claim 2, wherein the relationship between the length of each cell creates a pattern. 4. An acoustic liner of claim 3, wherein the pattern can be repeated along the length of the acoustic liner. 5. An acoustic liner of claim 2, further comprising cells of different lengths so as to absorb or dampen different frequencies. 6. An acoustic liner of claim 1, wherein the cell lengths are varied to improve the absorption or damping of multiple frequencies or optimize across a broader range of frequencies. 7. An acoustic liner of claim 1, wherein the acoustic liner comprises a ceramic matrix composite material.
