Flow Field of a Dual-Stream Jet with External Wedge- Shaped Deflector

Abstract

The research effort is a Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) investigation that looks at the flow-field and performance of a bypass ratio 8 nozzle with an external wedgeshaped noise suppressor, simulating the exhaust of a turbofan engine at takeoff conditions. Peak turbulence was reduced by the wedge on the side opposite the deflector, and it was increased in the initial region of the jet behind the deflector. Flow-field trends agreed with the expectations based on static jet experiments. The calculated thrust loss was 1.1% at takeoff conditions.
