Zusammenfassung: | An afterbody for a turbojet engine having a central axis, provided with a nozzle comprising two doors mounted facing each other between two lateral beams pivoting around axes defining a pivot direction, between a retracted position, in which a middle portion of the downstream edge of said doors forms the edge of the outlet section of the nozzle combined with the downstream edges of the two lateral beams, and a deployed position, in which said middle portions of the downstream edges of the pivoting doors come together so as to block the channel between the two lateral beams in order to reverse the thrust of the turbojet engine gases, the edge of the outlet section of the nozzle further having a crown of noise-reducing chevrons alternating with indentations and the afterbody wherein each noise-reducing chevron formed on the middle portion of the downstream edge of a pivoting door is opposite an indentation in the middle portion of the other pivoting door in the direction perpendicular to said pivot direction, the shapes of the chevrons and of the indentations being defined to match in such a way that each chevron fits into the opposing indentation when the pivoting doors are deployed. |
