An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This assembly includes an exhaust center body and a duct system. The exhaust center body includes an exterior skin. The duct system is fluidly coupled with a plurality of exterior skin perforations in the exterior skin. The duct system is configured to direct bypass air received from a bypass flow path within the aircraft propulsion system to the exterior skin perforations.

An aircraft engine nacelle comprising an icing protection system and an icing protection method for such an aircraft engine nacelle. The aircraft engine nacelle comprises an air inlet comprising a lip, a tubular air inlet piece and an icing protection system. The icing protection system comprises an icing prevention means powered continuously by a first electrical energy source and wholly or partly covering the lip, a de-icing means powered by a second electrical energy source covering the tubular air inlet piece and a controller configured to acquire a current total air temperature value, and control the second electrical energy source as a function of the current total air temperature value.

A gas turbine engine includes a turbine rotor connected to a main compressor rotor. A tail cone is mounted inward of an exhaust core flow. A generator rotor is adjacent a generator stator. The generator rotor and stator are mounted within the tail cone. A passage connects a bypass flow path to the tail cone. A cooling air compressor is operable within the passage. The turbine rotor drives a shaft to drive the generator rotor and the cooling compressor. A method is also disclosed.

A pressure relief latch includes a housing configured to be mounted to a pressure relief door. A bolt is coupled to the housing about a first axis and is rotatable about the first axis between a first bolt position and a second bolt position. The bolt includes a bearing centered about a second axis. The bearing is configured to rotate about the second axis. A spring assembly includes a first assembly end mounted to the bearing and a second assembly end in rotational communication with the housing about a third axis. The spring assembly is rotatable about the second and third axes and further includes a spring extending between the first and second assembly ends. The bolt is configured to permit movement of the pressure relief door from the closed position to the open position as the bolt rotates from the first bolt position to the second bolt position.

A barrier device is provided for an inlet cowl for an aircraft engine including an inner barrel circumferentially surrounding an opening in the inlet cowl formed along an axis of rotation of the aircraft engine, through which air passes to the aircraft engine, the inner barrel including a face sheet disposed on a radially inward side of the inner barrel relative to the axis. The barrier device includes a containment doubler of the inner barrel, disposed on a radially outward side of the inner barrel, and a blade fragment barrier including one or more strips disposed between the containment doubler and the face sheet, so as to extend circumferentially at least partially around the opening and to occupy a radial distance between the containment doubler and the face sheet.

An aircraft with an in-boom lift propulsor includes a fuselage, a boom with a recess in the upper surface, and a lift propulsor comprising of a motor assembly and a propulsive element. Motor on the aircraft is operated through an interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force on a shaft of the motor. The in-boom lift propulsor helps prevent damages to the motor assembly and the aircraft by absorbing torque from the rotor and absorbing moment from the mating flange 328, where the mating flange 328 joins the motor assembly to the boom. The boom includes an access panel to service the motor assembly and invertor during maintenance.
