Abstract
Disclosed is a variable flow divider for a turbomachine having a gas flow channel, comprising a stationary annular casing member located within the exhaust gas flow channel of the turbomachine, thereby defining an inner flow duct and an outer, annular flow duct; a plurality of flaps pivotally mounted in the flow channel on a stationary portion of the turbomachine, including a plurality of primary flaps and a plurality of secondary flaps adapted for rotation with the primary flaps, each of these flaps rotating about an axis which is arranged at a right angle to the central axis of the turbomachine; and means, located substantially entirely within the annular casing, for rotating said flaps to vary the respective sizes of said inner and outer flow ducts in relation to one another.
