Abstract

921,398. Jet propulsion plant. W. A. HOWIE. May 25, 1961 [June 15, 1960], No. 18855/61. Class 110 (3). [Also in Group XXXIII] An aircraft jet propulsion plant comprises two gas turbine engines 124, each located in a duct 120 with radial clearance and supplied from an inlet 121 controlled by a flap 123. The turbine exhaust, together with air entrained around engine 124 is discharged through an afterburner (not shown) and a nozzle 125. Lifting force, or further propulsive force, is supplied by turbo-fan engines 112, each located in a duct 110 fed from an inlet 108 controlled by flap 113 and discharging into the throat of a convergent-divergent duct 102 running through the aircraft, so as to entrain air through the duct inlet 103 and discharge it through an outlet 104. In a modification, Figs. 5 and 6 (not shown), the engines 112 are replaced by gas turbine engines located in the duct inlet 103, and air is entrained from ducts similar to ducts 110.
