Aeroengine thrust reverser

TL;DR: A thrust reverser blocker door assembly for turbofan engines is described in this article, which includes an engine nacelle with an aft translating cowl that is movable from a stowed position to a deployed position.

TL;DR: In this paper, the exit area of a nozzle assembly is varied by translating a ring assembly located at a rear of the engine nacelle to obtain lower fan pressure ratios and thereby increase the efficiency of an engine.

TL;DR: In this article, a variable area fan nozzle assembly for a turbofan engine includes a nacelle having an aft edge and a translating nozzle segment having a forward edge and first end.

TL;DR: A thrust reverser assembly and operation suitable for high-bypass turbofan engines is described in this paper, which includes a translating cowl mounted to a nacelle of an engine and adapted to translate in an aft direction of the engine.

TL;DR: Fan jet engine has cowl surrounding engine and terminating in jet exhaust nozzle, elongate shroud surrounds fan and engine to define annular passage for fan air terminating forward of exit end of nozzle as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a variable nozzle for the fan air flow of a turbofan aircraft gas turbine engine with the nozzle being defined by the exit throat area defined by a trailing edge portion of the fan cowl and the core engine housing is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a thrust reversing mechanism for reversing the flow through either the exhaust nozzle or fan duct of a jet propulsion powerplant is further modified to include apparatus for varying the throat area of the exhaust manifold as a means of optimizing powerplant efficiency throughout its operating range.

TL;DR: In this paper, a variable area discharge nozzle and thrust reversing mechanism for a jet engine is presented, where an annular exhaust nozzle having a telescopic sleeve, forms the aft section of the exhaust nozzle duct and a fixed plug centerbody is mounted within the duct.
