Zusammenfassung:1,166,396. Jet propulsion engine thrust reversal. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. 16 March, 1967 [9 Sept., 1966], No. 12296/67. Heading B7G. [Also in Division F1] A ducted fan jet propulsion engine 10 comprises a by-pass duct 18 concentric with the turbine 13 part of the engine and formed by a cowling 17 surrounding and spaced from the turbine part. The cowling 17, which ends in a nozzle 20, has flaps 22 tiltable to block the duct 18 and reverse the flow of by-pass air. The jet pipe of the engine ends in a nozzle 14 of which the exit area is variable by means (e.g. flaps 26) which spoil the jet pipe thrust thereby increasing the pressure ratio across the turbine causing the fan 16 to overspeed and increase the reverse thrust. The engine 10 may be mounted on a pylon 11 under the aircraft wing 8.
