Patent ID: 8205821

Claim:
A method for exhausting gas from an aircraft engine assembly, said method comprising: coupling a first exhaust duct in fluid communication only to a first engine, the first exhaust duct comprises a primary outlet and a secondary outlet; coupling a second exhaust duct in fluid communication only to a second engine, the second exhaust duct comprises a primary outlet and a secondary outlet; aligning a portion of the first engine secondary outlet concentrically within a portion of the second engine secondary outlet; coupling the first engine secondary outlet to a first passageway defined within a rotor, said rotor including a first airfoil portion and a second opposing airfoil portion, the first passageway extending to a trailing edge of the first airfoil portion and the second airfoil portion; and coupling the second engine secondary outlet to a second passageway defined within the at least one of a wing and a rotor, the second passageway extending to the trailing edge of the first airfoil portion and the second airfoil portion, wherein the first passageway is adjacent to the second passageway such that gases flowing through the first passageway and the second passageway are channeled in substantially the same direction through the at least one of a wing and a rotor.
