AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In ultra-high bypass ratio turbine engines, the reverse thrust airflow in the secondary flow path is interfered with by the reverse flow of the exhaust airflow at the outlet of the low-pressure compressor, resulting in insufficient reverse thrust level, and the traditional design cannot install a thrust reversal system.

Method used

By adjusting the angle of attack of the exhaust fins, it is ensured that the exhaust airflow can be axially and concurrently introduced into the secondary flow path in both the normal propulsion and thrust reversal configurations of the turbine engine. Movable exhaust fins and control devices are used to adjust the direction of the fins according to the configuration.

Benefits of technology

It enables the effective introduction of exhaust airflow under different configurations, ensuring the quality of reverse thrust airflow and reverse thrust level, and adapting to various operational requirements of turbine engines.

Abstract

An aircraft twin-flow turbo-engine assembly (32) is disclosed, comprising: - an inner shroud (42) for externally delimiting a main flow path (16) of turbo-engine gases; - an outer shroud (40) for internally delimiting a secondary flow path (18) of turbo-engine gases; - at least one air extraction duct (46) extending between the inner shroud (42) and the outer shroud (40), the air extraction duct (46) opening out into the secondary flow path (18) through an outlet aperture (52) equipped with extraction fins (54). At least some of the extraction fins (54) are mounted so as to be mobile so as to enable angle-of-attack control between a propulsion position and a reverse-thrust position.
