Zusammenfassung:A gas turbine engine exhaust nozzle comprises a nozzle body (8) defining a nozzle exit (6). An array of movable slats (16, 18) is disposed round the nozzle exit (6). Flow control walls (20) are fixed to the nozzle body (8) and provide flow control surfaces (22) over which the movable slats (16, 18) move. The flow control walls (20) prevent leakage of gas at the edges of the movable slats (16, 18), so improving performance of the exhaust nozzle.
