The present inventions include a boundary layer ejector fluidically connecting boundary layer bleed slots from an external surface of an aircraft to reduce aircraft/nacelle/pylon drag, reduce jet noise and decrease thrust specific fuel consumption. In one embodiment a boundary layer withdrawn through the boundary layer bleed slots is entrained with an exhaust flow of a gas turbine engine. In another embodiment a boundary layer withdrawn through the boundary layer bleed slots is entrained with a flow stream internal to the gas turbine engine, such as a fan stream of a turbofan. Members can be provided near an outlet of a passageway conveying the withdrawn boundary layer air to locally reduce the pressure of the fluid in which the withdrawn boundary layer air is to be entrained. A lobed mixer can be used in some embodiments to effect mixing between the boundary layer and a primary fluid of the ejector.

An inlet bleed heat system in a gas turbine includes a compressor discharge extraction manifold (12) that extracts compressor discharge air, an inlet bleed heat manifold (18) receiving the compressor discharge air, and a plurality of acoustic dispersion nozzles (26) disposed at an output end of the inlet bleed heat manifold that reduce a velocity of the compressor discharge air in the inlet bleed heat manifold. Noise is generated from the shearing action between the surrounding atmosphere and air jets from orifices. When the air jet velocity is slowed using, for example, a multi-stage ejector/mixer, noise can be abated.

A tortuous path quiet exhaust eductor system may be mounted to a gas turbine engine, such as commercial aircraft APU. The system includes an oil cooler, eductor primary nozzle, oil cooler nozzle, and surge air dump nozzle. The primary nozzle, oil cooler air nozzle, and surge air dump nozzle direct exhaust flow to entrain APU compartment cooling air, oil cooling air and surge air in a direction having both radial and axial components with respect to the APU centerline axis. The exhaust flow is directed into an eductor mixing duct angled away from the centerline axis and then is turned to enter an exit duct angled toward the centerline axis so that direct line of sight acoustic paths from the tail pipe exit to the turbine exit are blocked, suppressing core noise. The tail pipe ducts may be acoustically treated, further enhancing noise suppresion.

A mixer/ejector suppressor is disclosed for reducing the noise level created by the exhaust flows in gas turbines. In the preferred embodiment, the suppressor comprises a mixing ring of alternating lobes attached to the engine's tailpipe; an ejector shroud mounted onto the mixing ring; and a plurality of arcuate gaps, between the mixing ring and ejector shroud, that permit ambient air to be entrained into the shroud. The preferred mixing ring has ten curved lobes of alternating designs. Five of the mixing lobes are shallow, with contours similar to those of mixing lobes in an earlier TSMEC version, disclosed in a related U.S. utility patent application, Serial No. 08/729,571. The other five lobes are much longer, and they are designed to penetrate deeply into the engine's hot core flow. Together, the ten lobes rapidly mix (mostly at supersonic conditions) the engine exhaust flows with secondary ambient air inside the shroud. The lobes thereby increase the spread rate of the exhaust jet, dissipate its velocity and greatly decrease the core length of the exhaust jet. Hence, noise levels are reduced, which enable older engines to meet new federal noise regulations, known as "Stage 3", at static and takeoff conditions.
摘要:
A multi-stage mixer-ejector (20) having at least one exhaust nozzle (24 or 28) which includes inlet conduit adapted for receiving a primary flow PF of engine exhaust and a plurality of adjoined lobes (30) integrally formed in combination with the inlet conduit. The adjoined lobes (30) of the exhaust nozzle (24 or 28) are characterized by a first and second plurality of penetrating lobes (60, 62 or 70, 72) which are axially staggered with respect to each other and which are adapted for admixing low-temperature gaseous fluid with the high-temperature exhaust. In the preferred embodiment, at least one of the plurality of penetrating lobes (60 or 62, 70 or 72) extends into a core region (CR) of the exhaust nozzle (24 or 28) to effect thorough mixing of the low temperature gaseous fluid with the engine exhaust.
摘要:
A nozzle cooling system (2) for selectively cooling longitudinally extending and circumferentially adjacent divergent exhaust flow confining elements (54 & 55) bounding a hot exhaust gas flowpath (4) in a divergent section (48) of an aircraft gas turbine engine exhaust nozzle (14) and providing pivoting capability for divergent flaps (54) and seals (55) in an axisymmetric vectoring nozzle (14). The apparatus includes axially adjacent foward and aft sections (49F & 49A) of at least one of the exhaust flow confining elements (typically referred to as flaps and seals), the adjacent forward and aft sections have forward and aft interior hot surfaces (47F & 47A) respectively, and mounting apparatus (56) for mounting the aft section to the forward section in one of at least two positions. A first one of these two positions spaces apart the sections to form a gap (106) between the sections which allows cooling air (102) to flow onto the aft interior hot surface and a second one of these two positions places the sections in close abutting relationship so as to essentially prevent cooling air from flowing onto the aft interior hot surface.
