Methods And Apparatus For Operating Gas Turbine Engines

US Patent:
2004018, Sep 30, 2004
Filed:
Mar 31, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/403331
Inventors:
Steven Martens - West Chester OH, US
Seyed Saddoughi - Clifton Park NY, US
Kevin Early - Oregonia OH, US
International Classification:
F02K003/04
US Classification:
060/204000, 060/226100
Abstract:
A method enables a gas turbine engine to be operated. The method comprises channeling exhaust gases from a core engine through an exhaust assembly and past at least one flow boundary surface, and selectively operating a noise suppression system extending from the at least one flow boundary surface to facilitate attenuating noise generated during engine operation.

Sinuous Chevron Exhaust Nozzle

US Patent:
7305817, Dec 11, 2007
Filed:
Feb 9, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/774963
Inventors:
Keith Edward James Blodgett - Milford OH, US
Kevin Sean Early - Oregonia OH, US
Steven Martens - Ballston Lake NY, US
William Andrew Bailey - Cincinnati OH, US
Kenneth Daniel Price - Hamilton OH, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
F02K 1/38
US Classification:
60262, 602261
Abstract:
A gas turbine engine exhaust nozzle includes a row of laterally sinuous chevrons extending from an aft end of an exhaust duct. The chevrons have radially outer and inner surfaces bound by a laterally sinuous trailing edge extending between a base of the chevrons adjoining the duct and an axially opposite apex of the chevrons. Each chevron has a compound arcuate contour both axially and laterally, and the sinuous trailing edge of the chevrons further compounds the arcuate configuration of each chevron.

Methods And Apparatus For Operating Gas Turbine Engines

US Patent:
7093423, Aug 22, 2006
Filed:
Jan 20, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/760805
Inventors:
Srinivasa Range Gowda - Cincinnati OH, US
Kevin Sean Early - Oregonia OH, US
Steven Martens - West Chester OH, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:
F02K 1/48
US Classification:
60204, 60262, 60770, 23926543
Abstract:
A method of assembling a gas turbine engine includes coupling an annular exhaust duct to the gas turbine engine, coupling a plurality of chevrons to the annular exhaust duct, and coupling a chevron actuation system to the annular exhaust duct such that selective operation of the chevron actuation system repositions the plurality of chevrons to adjust an amount convergence of the annular exhaust duct.
