ABSTRACT:
Single expansion ramp to extend from the exhaust opening of a fluid nozzle. A surface of the ramp lying adjacent to fluid flow exhausting the nozzle is porous. The ramp of the present invention reduces the shock wave noise resulting from supersonic flow exhausting the nozzle by causing the formation of weak compression waves in the exhaust plume, which in turn weaken the strength of the standing shock waves in the plume.
