Single movement convergent and convergent-divergent nozzle

A variable exhaust nozzle for use with a gas turbine engine includes an outer shroud and an inner plug that can move relative to the outer shroud. The relative movement of the inner plug and the outer shroud changes the shape of the variable exhaust nozzle from one that converges in area to one that converges and then diverges in area.

POWER CABLE COOLING SYSTEM IN A GAS TURBINE ENGINE

The cooling system may comprise: an electric machine; a first conduit including a cable housing and an inlet; a plurality of conductive cables extending from the electric machine, the plurality of conductive cables disposed at least partially in the cable housing; and an electric fan disposed in the first conduit, the cooling system configured to passively flow air through the first conduit to cool the plurality of conductive cables during operation of the gas turbine engine, and the electric fan configured to actively cool the plurality of conductive cables after an engine shutdown of the gas turbine engine.

Exhaust nozzle of a gas turbine engine

Aspects of the disclosure regard an exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine that includes an outer nozzle wall, a flow channel which is limited radially outwards by the nozzle wall, a centerbody arranged in the flow channel, and at least two struts connecting the centerbody to the nozzle wall. One of the struts is connected to the nozzle wall by a first connection, the first connection constraining movement of the strut relative to the nozzle wall in the radial direction and in the circumferential direction. The at least one other strut is connected to the nozzle wall by a second connection, the second connection constraining movement of the strut relative to the nozzle wall in the circumferential direction but allowing movement of the strut relative to the nozzle wall in the radial direction.

Exhaust nozzle with centerbody support structure for a gas turbine engine

An exhaust nozzle for use with a gas turbine engine includes an outer shroud, an inner plug spaced radially apart from the outer shroud, and at least one support vane that is coupled to the outer shroud. The outer shroud and the inner plug cooperate to provide an exhaust nozzle flow path therebetween. The at least one support vane interconnects the outer shroud and the inner plug to support the inner plug in the exhaust nozzle flow path.
