    Date of Patent: May 8, 2007
    Assignee: Snecma Moteurs
    Inventors: Guy Lapergue, Raphael Curtelin, Didier Feder
  • Patent number: 6993914
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a convergent-divergent turbojet nozzle (1) comprising driven divergent flaps (4a), follower divergent flaps (4b) interposed between the driven flaps, and means (32) for supplying cooling air to the follower flaps (4b), said follower flaps (4b) having a box structure and having lateral openings for delivering cooling air towards the inner face of said driven flaps (4a), in such a way as to limit the heating up of these flaps when the turbojet is in operation.

  • Patent number: 6799427
    Abstract: The invention provides an injection system for injecting an air/fuel mixture into a combustion chamber of a gas turbine engine, the injection system having a longitudinal axis and comprising fuel injection means, interposed between first and second air injection means, the fuel injection means being disposed in an annular internal cavity of a Venturi, the fuel injection means comprising at least a first fuel admission circuit provided with at least one fuel injection orifice, and a plurality of second fuel admission circuits independent from the first fuel admission circuit(s), each being provided with at least one fuel injection orifice so as to define a plurality of independent modes of injecting the air/fuel mixture depending on determined operating speeds of the engine, the fuel injection orifice of the first fuel admission circuit being formed in the upstream wall of the Venturi so as to inject fuel towards the combustion chamber in a general direction that is substantially perpendicular to a flow of air
