Patent ID: 11920539

Abstract:
An exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine. The exhaust nozzle comprises a nozzle body having an upstream end axially spaced from a downstream end with respect to an axial centerline of the nozzle body, and a plurality of chevrons circumferentially spaced apart and extending downstream from the downstream end. Each chevron includes an inner wall radially spaced from an outer wall, a root and a tip axially spaced from the root. At least one chevron of the plurality of chevrons includes a first segment extending axially downstream from the root, a second segment extending axially downstream from the first segment, and a third segment extending axially downstream from the second segment to the tip. The inner wall extends along the first segment, the second segment, and third the segment. The first segment is distinguishable from the second segment and the second segment is distinguishable from the third segment.
