Gas turbine engine with augmentor and variable area bypass injector
This patent describes a gas turbine engine thrust for providing augmented thrust, comprising: (a) a plurality of circumferentially disposed hollow members positioned in the path of core gases from the core engine; (b) each of the members extending generally radially from the bypass duct to the center body; (c) each of the members being open at the radially outward end for receiving bypass gas from the bypass duct; (d) each of the members including spaced apart sidewalls and an opening in one of the side walls near the trailing edge and extending substantially the length of each of the members for discharging bypass gas in a direction which provides thorough mixing of the core gases and the bypass gas throughout substantially the entire region between adjacent hollow members.
