Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure regard an exhaust nozzle for a gas turbine engine that includes an outer nozzle wall, a flow channel which is limited radially outwards by the nozzle wall, a centerbody arranged in the flow channel, and at least two struts connecting the centerbody to the nozzle wall. One of the struts is connected to the nozzle wall by a first connection, the first connection constraining movement of the strut relative to the nozzle wall in the radial direction and in the circumferential direction. The at least one other strut is connected to the nozzle wall by a second connection, the second connection constraining movement of the strut relative to the nozzle wall in the circumferential direction but allowing movement of the strut relative to the nozzle wall in the radial direction.
