Zusammenfassung: | A gas turbine engine includes a combustion section that generates combustive gases that form a primary exhaust flow and an exhaust system downstream from the combustion section. The exhaust system includes an eductor system that includes a body that extends along a first axis, and a plurality of ducts spaced apart about a circumference of the body. Each of the plurality of ducts define a plurality of eductor primary flow paths that terminate in a mixing chamber. The exhaust system includes a muffler system downstream from the mixing chamber that includes a plurality of baffles that cooperate to define a tortuous path and attenuate sound generated by the gas turbine engine. The exhaust system includes a housing that surrounds the eductor system and the muffler system such that the eductor system and the muffler system are contained within the housing. |
