Abstract
The present disclosure is direct to a system for regulating a velocity of gases in a turbomachine. The system includes an exhaust section of the turbomachine. The system also includes a damper having an actuator and a restriction. The damper is positioned within the exhaust section and is operable to adjust the velocity of the gases based on a position of the restriction. The system further includes a controller communicatively coupled to the damper. The controller is configured to control the position of the restriction to regulate the velocity of the gases relative to a predetermined velocity range.
