Abstract: An exhaust nozzle assembly for a propulsion system include a primary nozzle, an outer shroud, an ejector nozzle, and an actuator. The primary nozzle extends along an exhaust centerline. The primary nozzle includes a downstream axial end. The outer shroud surrounds the primary nozzle. The ejector nozzle extends axially between a first axial end and a second axial end. The second axial end forms a nozzle exit plane for the exhaust nozzle assembly. The ejector nozzle converges in a direction from the first axial end to the second axial end. The ejector nozzle forms a mixing cross-sectional area between the primary nozzle and the ejector nozzle at the downstream axial end. The actuator is mounted on the ejector nozzle. The actuator is configured to move the ejector nozzle between a first position and a second position, relative to the outer shroud, to control an area of the mixing cross-sectional area.

Abstract: The system receives an indication of an issue associated with a wireless telecommunication network and an indication of an operator capable of resolving the issue. The system sends a notification to an AR/VR device associated with the operator. The notification indicates the issue and prompts the operator to join a virtual collaboration room. The system receives a request to join the virtual collaboration room from the operator based on a gesture or a voice command detected by the AR/VR device. The system creates the virtual collaboration room, via a 5G wireless telecommunication network, including a screen shared among multiple operators. The system records operations performed in the virtual collaboration room until a resolution to the issue has been determined.

Abstract: There is provided an exhaust mixer arrangement for a turbofan engine having a bypass passage for channelling a bypass flow and a core passage for channelling a core flow around a central axis. The exhaust mixer arrangement comprises a mixer body mounted for rotation about the central axis. The mixer body has an annular wall extending around the central axis. The annular wall defines a plurality of circumferentially distributed alternating inner and outer lobes, with each inner lobe protruding into the core passage, and each outer lobe protruding into the annular bypass passage. A driving unit is operatively connected to the mixer body for selectively driving the mixer body in rotation about the central axis. A controller is operatively connected to the driving unit for controlling a rotational speed of the mixer body as a function of a flight operating condition.

Abstract: A method and a system for synthesizing output power provided by an engine are provided. The engine comprising a compressor section, a combustor, and a turbine section in serial fluid flow communication. The engine is operated and, during the operating of the engine, a pressure of fluid at an exit of the compressor section, a temperature upstream of the exit of the compressor section, and a fuel flow rate to the engine are determined. A synthesized value of output power provided by the engine is determined based on a product of at least a first factor, a second factor, and a third factor, the first factor being a function of the pressure, the second factor being a function of the temperature, and the third factor being a function of the fuel flow rate.
