ABSTRACT:
An augmentor screech suppressor for a gas turbine engine includes a screech suppressor liner mounted on a screech housing and an actuator for translating the screech suppressor liner axially forward and aft, with the actuator located outside the outer duct of the engine. In a preferred embodiment in a variable cycle gas turbine engine, a variable area bypass injector (VABI) valve with a circumferentially conical surface slopes into the screech suppressor liner surface and inner and outer crank arms transfer linear motion from the actuator through the outer duct wall, cooperating with idler arms to translate the screech suppressor housing, and thus the VABI valve and screech suppressor linear, axially between open and closed valve position.
