Abstract: A variable section nozzle includes an ejection casing and a plurality of internal flaps arranged in a ring downstream from the ejection casing. Each internal flap is connected to the ejection casing by a movable lever pivotally mounted to the downstream end of the ejection casing. Each lever is movable between a first position in which the internal flaps are in a high position and a second position in which the internal flaps are in a folded-down position. The nozzle includes a plurality of rigid movement transmission parts distributed circumferentially around the ejection casing. Each rigid movement transmission part is connected to two adjacent levers by connecting rods, and to a control actuator. Each rigid movement transmission part can move in a direction corresponding to the axial direction of the nozzle under the action of the control actuator to move the adjacent levers between the first and second positions.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine includes a fan, a compressor, a combustor, a turbine, a bypass duct downstream of the fan and outward of the compressor, and a cooling system. The cooling system includes an inlet for receiving air from the bypass duct, an outlet for returning air to the bypass duct, a cooling duct, and a heat exchanger and a modulator positioned in the cooling duct. The modulator includes dividers that extend parallel to each other and are arranged across the duct, and each divider includes two flaps that are rotatable about an axis in opposite directions.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a radially stacked fuel injection module for a segmented annular combustion system. The fuel injection module includes a bundled tube fuel nozzle portion and a plurality of fuel injection lances. In one instance, a first set of fuel injection lances and a second set of fuel injection lances share a housing with the bundled tube fuel nozzle. The first and second sets of fuel injection lances are radially stacked, each set of lances being in communication with a respective injector fuel plenum. The fuel injection lances deliver fuel to a respective premixing channel formed between the side walls of an integrated combustor nozzle, an aft end of which defines a turbine nozzle. In another instance, the bundled tube fuel nozzle may be provided as a radially inner fuel nozzle and a radially outer fuel nozzle, each with a respective bundled tube fuel plenum.
