Abstract
An aircraft propulsion system includes a gas turbine engine and an exhaust nozzle assembly. The gas turbine engine includes a compressor section, a combustor section, a turbine section, and an exhaust section. The compressor section, the combustor section, the turbine section, and the exhaust section form a core flow path through the gas turbine engine. The exhaust nozzle assembly is disposed at the exhaust section. The exhaust nozzle assembly includes a nozzle bypass system and an exhaust treatment system. The nozzle bypass system is selectively configurable in a bypass mode or an exhaust treatment mode. The nozzle bypass system in the bypass mode directs a core combustion gas from the core flow path through the exhaust nozzle assembly bypassing the exhaust treatment system. The nozzle bypass system in the exhaust treatment mode directs the core combustion gas through the exhaust nozzle assembly and exhaust treatment system.
