    摘要: The invention relates to a concentric gas flow mixer in a multiple-flow turbomachine, comprising a nominally cylindrical upstream part and a downstream part having outer and inner lobes distributed peripherally around the tower of said mixer, characterised in that it comprises at least one modified lobe having a wall thickness, in at least one area, which is different from the other lobes, so as to modify the vibratory response of said mixer.

    摘要: A exhaust nozzle assembly comprises a nozzle that extends about an axial centerline and includes an exhaust nozzle flange; an radially inner surface that comprises an axially forward inner surface; a noise attenuating structure; a through hole inlet formed in the axially forward inner surface; a through hole outlet formed in the axially rear inner surface. The nozzle assembly also includes a radially outer surface that is radially separated from the radially inner surface by a nozzle cavity, where engine core air enters the nozzle cavity from the through hole inlet and exits the nozzle cavity axially downstream of the hole inlet via the through hole outlet.

    摘要: Systems and methods for an exhaust system for a gas turbine engine are provided. The method includes: receiving a primary exhaust fluid in a primary manifold; receiving a secondary cooling fluid in a secondary plenum; directing the primary exhaust fluid through a plurality of eductor primary flow paths associated with a respective plurality of ducts spaced circumferentially about a primary manifold, the plurality of eductor primary flow paths extending through the secondary plenum; and mixing the primary exhaust fluid and the secondary cooling fluid in a mixing chamber associated with a respective one of the plurality of ducts to create a mixed fluid flow.

    摘要: The invention proposes an assembly for a rear of a dual-flow turbomachine (10) having a longitudinal axis (X), comprising: a secondary nozzle (110) defined about the longitudinal axis (X), said secondary nozzle being configured to eject a mixture of the flows coming from a secondary vein (Vs) and a primary vein (Vp) of the turbomachine (10), the secondary nozzle being of convergent-divergent form with a neck (112) corresponding to a minimal cross-cross-section of the secondary nozzle (110), a heating system located on at least one portion of the internal circumference of the secondary nozzle longitudinally in the region of the neck and/or upstream from the neck (112).

    摘要: An exhaust mixer for a gas turbine engine includes an annular wall having upstream end adapted to be fastened to an engine case and a downstream end forming a plurality of inner and outer mixer lobes. A support member interconnects at least a number of the inner lobes, and includes a circumferentially extending stiffener ring located radially inwardly from the inner lobes and a series of circumferentially spaced apart mixer struts radially extending from the inner lobes to the stiffener ring. The mixer struts have a radial length at least equal to a width of a main gas path defined between the inner lobes and the exhaust cone such that the mixer struts extend entirely through the main gas path. The stiffener ring being fixed solely to the mixer struts such as to float with respect to the exhaust cone and permit relative movement therebetween.

    摘要: A gas turbine engine has an engine core and a bypass duct. A fan drives the flow through the bypass duct. A bypass efficiency is defined as the efficiency of the fan compression of the bypass flow. The bypass efficiency is a function of the bypass flow rate at a given set of conditions. The bypass flow rate at the optimum bypass efficiency is appreciably lower than the maximum bypass flow rate at the given conditions. This results in increased design flexibility and improved overall engine performance.
