Abstract:
A propulsion unit includes a gas turbine engine arranged along an axis and an exhaust system coupled to the gas turbine engine. The gas turbine engine includes an engine core configured to discharge a core flow and a fan configured to be driven by the engine core to discharge a bypass flow. The exhaust system receives the mixed bypass and core flows from the gas turbine engine.
