Abstract (en)
[origin: WO03050403A1] A two stage mixing device includes a first internal and a second external jet nozzle mixer (20) with identically formed lobes (48), which equal in number the lobes of the first stage internal mixer (42), and furthers the mixing of the jet engine internal bypass flow with the internal jet engine core flow. This mixing levels the disparate flow velocities of the jet engine exhaust, reduces the peak velocities from the jet engine core flow (36) and increases the lower bypass velocities of the jet engine internal bypass flow. The lobes of the external jet nozzle mixer are designed to entrain external air into the jet engine internal flow. The lobes include complex curvatures that greatly enhance mixing of the gases and ambient cooling air, and thereby reduce noise. The lobes act collectively as an injector to force the cooler ambient secondary flow into the previously mixed primary flow as it exits the nozzle. These actions reduce the noise level.
