TLDR
In this article, a system for existing three-engine jet aircraft to reduce the noise levels at take-off and landing in order to meet governmental noise regulations is provided. But this system is particularly suitable for 727-200 aircraft having three JT8D engines.
Abstract
A system is provided for existing three-engine jet aircraft to reduce the noise levels at take-off and landing in order to meet governmental noise regulations. The system is particularly suitable for 727-200 aircraft having three JT8D engines. A hush kit is formed of the modified components for installation in existing airplanes.

Gas turbine engine exhaust mixer

TL;DR: In this article, a gas turbine engine exhaust mixer has a plurality of circumferentially distributed alternating inner and outer lobes (42, 44) with radial interconnecting walls there between.
Patent

Duplex mixer exhaust nozzle

TL;DR: A turbofan engine exhaust nozzle (30,32) includes cooperating outer and inner mixers (36,38) as discussed by the authors, which are spaced radially apart, and aft ends of the mixers are joined together to define an outlet (40) of the nozzle for discharging exhaust flow.

Method and apparatus for damping vibration in turbomachine components

TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus was proposed to reduce the magnitude of vibratory strain in a turbomachine component that experiences high steady state strain by coupling a mechanical-to-electromagnetic energy converter to an interior and/or exterior surface of the component, and embedding the energy converter within the component.
