  • Patent number: 9926809
    Abstract: A method for discharging exhaust gas from a gas turbine wherein a number of sectors, position, and angle at the center of at least one sector of a peripheral opening capable of forming an area for reingestion of a primary flow into an engine bay are determined by correlation of interactions between secondary cooling flows and the primary flow, from following behavior parameters: air gyration and speed at an inlet of a pipe, geometry of an exhaust stream, routing of the secondary cooling flow for cooling the engine bay, and a geometry and position of inlets of the secondary flows. The peripheral opening is then closed over the identified at least one angular sector. The method prevents backflow of hot primary air into the peripheral opening formed between a pipe and an ejector of the exhaust stream of a gas turbine.
