VARIABLE-SECTION NOZZLE, AND AIRCRAFT TURBOJET ENGINE NACELLE EQUIPPED WITH SUCH A NOZZLE

摘要

A variable-section nozzle for an aircraft nacelle includes a deformable portion of which is movable between a narrow section position and a wide section position. In particular, the variable-section nozzle includes piezoelectric actuators and a controller to control the piezoelectric actuators in order to displace the deformable portion between the narrow and wide section positions. The piezoelectric actuators can be disposed on at least one faces of the deformable portion or be disposed end-to-end to form actuating rods.
