Turbine engines with variable area nozzle
Abstract:
A turbine engine having an engine core, an inner cowl radially surrounding the engine core, an outer cowl radially surrounding the inner cowl and spaced from the inner cowl to form an annular passage between the inner and outer cowls that defines a nozzle, at least one control surface provided on the inner cowl and movable between a retracted position, where the nozzle has a first cross-sectional area, and an extended position where the nozzle has a second cross-sectional area that is less than the first cross-sectional area and an actuator operably coupled to the control surface and configured to move the control surface to control the cross-sectional area of the nozzle.
