ABSTRACT:
An exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine includes a nozzle casing having top and bottom walls and side walls. A liner is provided within the nozzle casing to define a cooling passage. The top and bottom walls each include mutually inclined planar wall portions which meet at respective creases. The creases increase the rigidity of the top and bottom walls. In addition, the inclined wall portions cause the cooling passage to taper in the direction outwardly from the creases, so assisting in the cooling air distribution over the liner.
