DOOR THRUST REVERSER COMPRISING A DEFLECTOR FOR REDIRECTING AN AIR FLOW IN THE UPSTREAM DIRECTION

A thrust reverser including a stationary structure, a lower door and an upper door. This reverser includes at least one deflector configured to be able to redirect forward from the stationary structure a portion of fluid exiting the reverser according to a trajectory oriented towards a lateral opening extending between the stationary structure and the upper door. Such a deflector makes it possible to improve the control of the air current lines acting on a tail unit and in particular on a control surface of an aircraft equipped with such a reverser when the latter is in thrust reversal configuration, thereby making it possible to improve the controllability of this aircraft.

REVERSE THRUST TURBOFAN ENGINE
20230340927 · 2023-10-26 ·

A turbofan engine may include a variable pitch fan rotatable about an axis and operable in a forward thrust mode by generating flow opposite a direction of travel and in a reverse thrust mode by generating flow in the direction of travel. In reverse thrust mode, a nacelle assembly defines an intermediate opening disposed aft of the variable pitch fan. A flow guide assembly is configured to guide a first fluid flow opposite the direction of travel within a bypass passage from a forward opening to an aft opening of the nacelle assembly in forward thrust mode, and to redirect a second fluid flow from outside the bypass passage opposite the direction of travel to inside the bypass passage in the direction of travel through the intermediate opening in reverse thrust mode. One or more flow channels are defined for generating at least one fluidic injection pressurized by a core.
