A turbofan engine includes an outer fixed structure, the downstream terminal end of which terminates in a terminal plane substantially normal to the longitudinal axis of the engine. The radius R of the internal surface of the outer fixed structure in the terminal plane is a function R() of azimuthal position such that the radius has a constant value R0 within a first azimuthal interval of 180, a value greater than R0 at any azimuthal position within a second and fourth azimuthal intervals and a value less than R0 at any azimuthal position within a third azimuthal interval, the azimuthal intervals forming a total interval of 360 and the fourth interval being contiguous with the first. The engine may be mounted closer to the airframe of an aircraft than a turbofan engine having an outer fixed structure which is axisymmetric in its downstream terminal plane.

A nacelle for a gas turbine engine includes a ring shaped body defining a center axis and having a radially outward surface and a radially inward surface. An aft portion of the radially inward surface includes an axially extending convergent-divergent exit nozzle. An axially extending secondary duct passes through the nacelle in the convergent-divergent exit nozzle. The axially extending secondary duct includes an inlet at a convergent portion of the convergent-divergent exit nozzle and an outlet at a divergent portion of the convergent-divergent exit nozzle.

The invention relates to a fairing (37) for a mixer (28) of a nozzle (26) of a dual-flow turbomachine (20), said mixer being of an overall annular shape and extending along a longitudinal axis (24) of the turbomachine, said mixer comprising an upstream part (29) provided with a flange (31) extending radially toward the outside of the mixer, intended to be fastened to an exhaust casing (21) of the turbomachine, and a downstream part (33) forming a flow mixing area, the fairing (37) being of an overall annular shape and configured to extend around the upstream part (29) of the mixer (28) and to be attached to the flange (31) of said upstream part (29), the fairing being without means for fastening to the downstream part (33) of the mixer (28), in such a way as to connect the fairing (37) to the mixer (28) at a distance from the flow mixing area.

An exhaust duct of an aircraft engine includes an annular inlet conduit having an inlet central axis, and at least two outlet conduits in flow communication with the inlet conduit. The at least two outlet conduits are located non-parallel to the inlet central axis. Each of the at least two outlet conduits include an outlet port defining a distal end of each of the two outlet conduits. At least one of the outlet ports is non-circular in cross-sectional shape.

A turbofan engine includes: a core engine, a primary flow channel, a secondary flow channel, a machine axis and a thrust nozzle that is a separate thrust nozzle for the secondary flow channel or an integral thrust nozzle for the primary flow channel and the secondary flow channel, and that has a center line and a nozzle exit surface. The thrust nozzle is tilted with respect to the machine axis while forming an articulation angle that the center line of the thrust nozzle forms with respect to the machine axis at least at the nozzle exit, and the nozzle exit surface of the thrust nozzle is oriented obliquely with respect to the center line of the thrust nozzle while forming an angle of inclination that a normal of the nozzle exit surface forms with respect to the center line of the thrust nozzle.
