See full text

A method for controlling flow through an exhaust nozzle includes: providing a centerbody including a maximum diameter section; providing an inner shroud surrounding the centerbody, including at least a middle section of decreased diameter and terminating at an aft edge; providing an outer shroud. wherein the centerbody and the inner shroud collectively define a throat, and the outer shroud and the centerbody collectively define an exit; selectively translating the inner shroud and outer shroud to vary the throat; and selectively translating the outer shroud to vary the ratio of the exit to the throat; wherein, when the inner shroud is in a forward position, its aft edge is forward of the maximum diameter section of the centerbody, such that the throat of the nozzle is formed between the aft edge of the inner shroud and the centerbody.
