Variable Jet Nozzle with Balanced Two-Dimensional Blocker Flap.

Abstract

A variable area jet nozzle construction capable of blocking flow in favor of another nozzle in a vertical or short take-off aircraft utilizes a balanced two-dimensional flap that is pivotable about rollers and movable, along curved tracks cooperable with the rollers, to assume a plurality of nozzle area varying or blocking positions under the influence of linear hydraulic actuators.
