Variable area exhaust nozzle system and method for control thereof
A variable area exhaust nozzle defining an actual area ratio for a gas turbine engine that includes a shroud assembly having a fixed shroud and an adjustable cowl, an adjustable plug, a nozzle adjustment assembly, and a controller configured to receive data indicative of an operating speed of the gas turbine engine; determine a target area ratio based at least in part on received data indicative of the operating speed of the gas turbine engine; and operate the nozzle adjustment assembly to selectively adjust at least one of the adjustable cowl or the adjustable plug such that the actual area ratio is substantially equivalent to the target area ratio.
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.
Spray nozzle device for delivering a restorative coating through a hole in a case of a turbine engine
An atomizing spray nozzle device includes an atomizing zone housing that receives different phases of materials used to form a coating. The atomizing zone housing mixes the different phases of the materials into a two-phase mixture of ceramic-liquid droplets in a carrier gas. The device also includes a plenum housing fluidly coupled with the atomizing housing and extending from the atomizing housing to a delivery end. The plenum housing includes an interior plenum that receives the two-phase mixture of ceramic-liquid droplets in the carrier gas from the atomizing zone housing. The device also includes one or more delivery nozzles fluidly coupled with the plenum chamber. The delivery nozzles provide outlets from which the two-phase mixture of ceramic-liquid droplets in the carrier gas is delivered onto one or more surfaces of a target object as the coating on the target object.

Ejection cone having a flexible aerodynamic attachment
The invention relates to an assembly for an aircraft turbomachine, comprising a central element (1) for the ejection of gas, and a connecting flange (9) interposed between, upstream, a gas outlet (22a) made of metal for a turbomachine, and, at the downstream end, the central element (1). The connecting flange comprises an annular portion (9a) and flexible tabs (11) having axially: a first end (111a) where the tab is connected to the said annular portion, and a second free end (111b), projecting radially inwardly with respect to the first end and to which said tab is attached with the central element (1).
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.
Methodology for minimizing aerodynamic buzz in an exhaust nozzle
A variable exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine includes an outer shroud and an inner plug. The outer shroud is arranged circumferentially about an axis. The inner plug extends along the axis and is at least partially located within the outer shroud. At least one of the outer shroud and the inner plug are movable selectively to cause a variable area region of the variable exhaust nozzle to change.
