Abstract
An aircraft propulsion system includes a core engine for generating an exhaust gas flow that is expanded through a turbine to generate shaft power. A heat exchanger is in communication with a partial portion of the exhaust gas flow and an exit flow is emitted from the heat exchanger. An ejector is configured to increase a pressure of the exit flow with a motive flow taken from the core flow path.
