    摘要: A nacelle (110) for a jet engine (108) having a selectively operated reverse thruster which redirects air flow to cascades (116) during a reverse thrust operation, the nacelle (110) comprising a translating cowl panel (120) configured to move transversely between a stowed and deployed states during a reverse thrust operation so as to expose the cascade (116) for emitting reverse thrust airflow in its deployed state and at least one automatic translating panel (208) configured to be arranged in proximity to a leading edge slat (104) of an aircraft wing to which the nacelle (110) is to be mounted, the automatic translating panel being movable, between a stowed and deployed states, transversely in automated coordination with movement of the translating cowl panel (120) during at least a portion of a movement range of the translating cowl panel (120), movement of the automatic translating panel (208) being less than movement of the translating cowl panel (208) so as to provide a variable clearance space between the automatic translating panel (208) and the leading edge slat (104) when the automatic translating panel (120) transitions between its stowed and deployed states.
