Abstract
A bleed air heat ejector includes a housing defining an inner passage extending in an axial direction from an inlet of the housing to an outlet of the housing, wherein the inlet is configured to channel ambient air into the housing, and wherein the outlet is configured to channel mixed heated and ambient air out of the housing. A dispenser is mounted in the housing between the inlet and the outlet. The dispenser includes an inner chamber configured to receive heated air from a bleed line. The dispenser includes a plurality of apertures therein for issuing heated air from the inner chamber into the inner passage of the housing to form a flow of mixed ambient and bleed air. The apertures of the inner chamber can be angled primary jets, vortex generators can be included, and/or secondary jets can be included to promote mixing of bleed and ambient air.
