Summary:The present invention relates to a structural or non-structural turbojet engine fan casing connecting arm ( 8 B) that also acts as a flow straightener downstream of the fan rotor ( 3 ). Its distinctive feature is that it is constructed in such a way as to form an acoustic attenuator. In particular, it comprises a closed cavity and perforations ( 83 ) on one of the faces ( 8 B in, 8 Bex) so as to form a Helmholtz resonator. The arm forms part of the intermediate casing ( 8 ).
