Nozzle system and method for supersonic jet engine

摘要

A supersonic jet engine for improved noise abatement and thrust augmentation. There is an intake section, an engine, a mixing section, an exhaust section, and a secondary air passageway. Ambient air is directed into the engine and into the secondary air passageway. Exhaust from the engine and the secondary air are directed into primary and secondary segments to mix in a stream direction as supersonic flow. Selectively controllable primary bypass passageways are provided at the primary passageway segments and are operated to bypass the primary flow through the primary segments at times when greater primary flow area is required.
