ABSTRACT:
An exhaust mixer for a turbofan aeroengine can be classified as being of the multi-lobed type, with troughs between the lobes. Good mixing efficiency together with good aerodynamics, short axial length and low weight is achieved by forming the mixer from flow surfaces which are longitudinally twisted between their upstream and downstream ends, opposing sides of each lobe and trough being of opposite twist. Between the upstream and downstream ends of the twisted flow surfaces, their latitudinal contours become approximately S-shaped so as to define outer portions of the lobes, inner portions of the troughs and the opposed sides of the lobes and troughs.
