  • Method of improving the ignition performance of an after-burner device for a bypass turbojet, and an after-burner device of improved ignition performance
    Patent number: 7584615
    Abstract: The after-burner device receives a “hot” central primary flow from the turbine of the turbojet and a “cold” peripheral secondary flow, and it has an after-burner ignition zone situated in the secondary flow that reaches the after-burner device. A fraction of the primary flow is brought into the after-burner ignition zone in order to raise the temperature in said zone to a value that is higher than that of the secondary flow so as to encourage after-burner ignition.
