Patent number: 8770921Abstract: An aircraft jet engine with a longitudinal axis, including a wall enclosing a gas flow ejected from a downstream end of the wall in the longitudinal axis, plural ducts being distributed around the periphery of the downstream end of the wall each including a terminal section, including an outlet opening. Each duct can eject a fluid jet through the outlet opening thereof. The ducts are configured to eject the fluid jets essentially parallel to each other, each fluid jet ejected through the corresponding outlet opening forming a lateral angle with the longitudinal axis in a projection view in a plane with the longitudinal axis.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2009Date of Patent: July 8, 2014Assignees: Airbus Operations S.A.S., Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Université de PoitiersInventors: Jerome Huber, Jean-Paul Bonnet, Joel Delville, Peter Jordan, Francois Strekowski

Patent number: 8393139Abstract: An aircraft jet engine including a wall centered about a longitudinal axis and surrounding a stream of gas ejected at a downstream end of the wall in the direction of the axis, primary ducts distributed at the periphery of the downstream end of the wall configured on command each to eject a jet of primary fluid to interact with the ejected stream of gas, the primary ducts of each pair converging towards one another near the downstream end of the wall so that the primary jets ejected form two sides of a triangle that meet at the vertex thereof in a view projected onto a plane perpendicular to a transverse plane, and secondary ducts each associated with each pair of primary ducts and configured on command to eject a jet of secondary fluid directed into the triangle formed by the primary jets.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2009Date of Patent: March 12, 2013Assignees: Airbus Operations (S.A.S.), Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Universite de PoitiersInventors: Jerome Huber, Jean-Paul Bonnet, Joel Delville, Peter Jordan, Francois Strekowski

Patent number: 8157050Abstract: A jet engine, including a wall surrounding a first gas flow ejected from a downstream end of the wall along a longitudinal axis, a second flow of gas running outside the wall in a direction of ejection of the first gas flow, at least one duct arranged on the periphery of the downstream end of the wall which is desired to eject a gas flow for interacting with one and/or the other gas flow, the at least one duct including a terminal section provided at the free end thereof with an outlet opening through which the fluid is ejected. The terminal section successively includes a first section of straight duct aligned along a median axis and a second duct section forming a bend relative to the straight section, the second portion having a free end provided with the outlet opening and sufficiently close to the median axis of the first section to give the terminal section a reduced restriction in a direction of formation of the bend.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2009Date of Patent: April 17, 2012Assignees: Airbus Operations (S.A.S.), Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Universitéde PoitiersInventors: Jerome Huber, Jean-Paul Bonnet, Joel Delville, Peter Jordan, Francois Strekowski

Patent number: 8132756Abstract: An aircraft engine having a longitudinal axis, including a wall surrounding a gas stream that is ejected at a downstream end of the wall along the longitudinal axis, wherein a plurality of conduits distributed at the periphery of the downstream end of the wall are each capable of ejecting, via an outlet orifice, a fluid jet in the form of a sheet, in such a way that the jets thus ejected each form a fluid perturbation around the ejected gas stream.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2009Date of Patent: March 13, 2012Assignees: Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), Universite de Poitiers, Airbus Operations SASInventors: Jerome Huber, Jean-Paul Bonnet, Joel Delville, Peter Jordan, Francois Strekowski

Patent number: 8020368Abstract: A nozzle allowing the reduction of noise generated by aircraft jet engines having at least one output ring which disturbs the propulsion jet, and having at least one pair of conduits from which the propulsion of jet air is ejected at the output of the nozzle. The conduits of each pair are disposed convergent with respect to each other in order to generate a triangle of interaction of the air jets at the output ring.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2007Date of Patent: September 20, 2011Assignees: Universite de Poitiers, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique-CNRSInventors: Jean-Paul Bonnet, Joel Delville, Peter Jordan, Estelle Laurendeau

Patent number: 7174718Abstract: A device for controlling propulsive gas mixing at an outlet of an aircraft jet engine, wherein propulsive jets are composed of a hot primary jet exiting from a nozzle of the jet engine and a secondary flux flowing between an external wall of the nozzle and an internal wall of the jet engine including a divergent trailing edge on the wall that generates conditions of a separation of the primary jet close to an existence limit value and a primary jet controller that enables control of passage of the primary jet from a separated state to a reattached state, and vice versa.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2004Date of Patent: February 13, 2007Assignee: Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique-CNRSInventors: Jean-Paul Bonnet, Joel Delville, Erwan Collin, Jean Tensi, Eric Moreau, Gerard Touchard
