Abstract:
An ejector assembly includes a primary nozzle in fluid communication with a primary fluid inlet, a secondary nozzle in fluid communication with a secondary fluid inlet, the primary nozzle being oriented concentrically within the secondary nozzle and the secondary nozzle having a venturi downstream of the primary nozzle, and the primary nozzle having a variable cross-sectional area. A gas turbine engine includes a source of high pressure air, a region of low pressure air, and an ejector assembly, the ejector assembly includes a primary nozzle in fluid communication with a primary fluid inlet, the primary fluid inlet in fluid communication with the source of high pressure air, a secondary nozzle in fluid communication with a secondary fluid inlet, the secondary fluid inlet in fluid communication with the region of low pressure air, the primary nozzle being oriented concentrically within the secondary nozzle and the secondary nozzle having a venturi downstream of the primary nozzle, and the primary nozzle having a variable cross-sectional area.
