Abstract

The selection of exhaust systems for advanced tactical aircraft is an exercise in the art of compromise. In the last 30 years, the design function of the exhaust system has evolved from an engine control valve to a multifunctional system, which may include requirements for high performance, thrust vectoring, and signature reduction. General Electric employs a systematic approach to the selection and design of exhaust systems which requires accurate estimation of internal performance. This paper presents a summary of that approach and describes the development of prediction techniques by GE for nonaxisymmetric exhaust systems.
