TL;DR: In this article, a tortuous path quiet exhaust eductor system is mounted to a gas turbine engine, such as commercial aircraft APU, which includes an oil cooler, eductor primary nozzle, oil cooler air nozzle, and surge air dump nozzle.
Abstract: A tortuous path quiet exhaust eductor system may be mounted to a gas turbine engine, such as commercial aircraft APU. The system includes an oil cooler, eductor primary nozzle, oil cooler air nozzle, and surge air dump nozzle. The primary nozzle, oil cooler air nozzle, and surge air dump nozzle direct exhaust flow to entrain APU compartment cooling air, oil cooling air and surge air in a direction having both radial and axial components with respect to the APU centerline axis. The exhaust flow is directed into an eductor mixing duct angled away from the centerline axis and then is turned to enter an exit duct angled toward the centerline axis so that direct line of sight acoustic paths from the tail pipe exit to the turbine exit are blocked, suppressing core noise. The tail pipe ducts may be acoustically treated, further enhancing noise suppression.

TL;DR: In this paper, a study of the effects of nozzle oscillation at small angles on the depth of cut under different combinations of process parameters was carried out and it was found that a high oscillation frequency (10−14 Hz) with a low oscillation angle (4−6°) can maximize the depth-of-cut.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that there is a limit to the lowest temperature achieved, under practical conditions, set by condensation in the jet, and that a large cluster binding energy enhances the formation of clusters and they release their condensation energy into the beam.
Abstract: Supersonic expansions of pure and seeded rare gases have been investigated experimentally, measuring the translational and rotational temperatures. The lowest achievable translational temperature in the jet depends on both gas properties as well as on experimental boundary conditions like nozzle shape and nozzle–skimmer distance. We show that there is a limit to the lowest temperature achieved, under practical conditions, set by condensation in the jet. A large cluster binding energy enhances the formation of clusters and they release their condensation energy into the beam. The spatial confinement of the jet extends to long distances, and is sensitive to the shape of the nozzle. The confined jet forms a narrow cone of high intensity, and results in increased collision probability and cluster formation.

18 Jan 2001TL;DR: In this paper, a mixer assembly for use in a combustion chamber of a gas turbine engine is described. But it is not shown how to use the mixture of fuel and air through the outlet to the combustion chamber.
Abstract: A mixer assembly for use in a combustion chamber of a gas turbine engine. The mixer assembly includes a mixer housing having a hollow interior, an inlet and an outlet. The housing delivers a mixture of fuel and air through the outlet to the combustion chamber for burning. The mixer assembly includes a fuel nozzle assembly mounted in the housing having a fuel passage adapted for connection to a fuel supply. The passage extends to an outlet port for delivering fuel from the passage to the hollow interior of the mixer housing. The nozzle assembly includes a plasma generator for generating at least one of a dissociated fuel and an ionized fuel from the fuel delivered through the nozzle outlet port to the hollow interior of the housing.

26 Mar 2012TL;DR: A substrate cleaning apparatus includes a supporting unit, provided in a processing chamber having a gas exhaust port, for supporting a substrate; one or more nozzle units, each for ejecting gas clusters to a peripheral portion of the substrate supported by the supporting unit to remove unnecessary substances from the peripheral portion as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: A substrate cleaning apparatus includes a supporting unit, provided in a processing chamber having a gas exhaust port, for supporting a substrate; one or more nozzle units, each for ejecting gas clusters to a peripheral portion of the substrate supported by the supporting unit to remove unnecessary substances from the peripheral portion; and a moving mechanism for changing relative positions of the supporting unit and the nozzle unit during ejecting the gas clusters. Each nozzle unit discharges a cleaning gas having a pressure higher than that in the processing chamber so that the cleaning gas is adiabatically expanded to form aggregates of atoms and/or molecules.
