Abstract
In a mixed flow gas turbine engine of the type which includes an outer nacelle spaced apart from a core engine to define an annular bypass duct therebetween, a thrust reverse is incorporated into the outer nacelle immediately aft of a fan disposed in the inlet. The thrust reverser reverses the discharge direction of the airflow exhausted from the bypass duct thereby to develop reverse thrust. The unique design and location of the thrust reverser permits the use of an aerodynamically efficient and relatively easy to manufacture cylindrical structure immediately aft of the engine fan frame.
