Abstract

822,472. Jet propulsion nozzles. ROLLSROYCE Ltd. June 20, 1957 [June 20, 1956], No. 19181/56. Class 110 (3). [Also in Group XXXIII] A jet propulsion nozzle comprises a pair of members having a cross-section similar to that of part of the downstream end of the jet pipe and each of which is pivoted about an axis transverse to the jet pipe so that it is capable of being set in a first position on which it forms a smooth downstream in continuation of the jet pipe without reducing the cross-sectional area of flow, and in a second position in which its upstream edge lies inwardly of the wall of the jet pipe in which it divides the jet into separate streams. A cylindrical jet pipe 50 has a pair of part cylindrical members 51 mounted to pivot about an axis 52 from a first position, in which the members 51 form a smooth continuation of the jet pipe 50 to a second position, Fig. 2, in which the leading edge of each of the members is swung inwards until it lies between the jet pipe axis 53 and the periphery of the jet pipe. In the second position the members 51 divide the jet stream into three separate streams to produce a silencing effect. Preferably the outer streams diverge from the axial direction at an angle of 20 to 25 degrees. The members 51 may also be pivoted into a third position in which the trailing edges are in abutment. In this position the gas flowing through the jet pipe is deflected to flow in a reverse direction. In a modification, Fig. 4 (not shown) the leading edges of the pivoted members 51 and the trailing edge of the jet pipe are increased in thickness so that a convergent-divergent nozzle is formed.
