What is Gas Turbine Thrust Modulation Patent about?

This patent describes a device for modulating the thrust output of a gas turbine engine without varying the engine speed. The device includes means for bypassing compressor discharge air to a manifold surrounding the engine tailpipe. Swirl-inducing nozzles introduce the bypass air into the tailpipe, increasing pressure losses and reducing thrust output. A portion of the bypass air can also be diverted to augment turbine cooling airflow, maintaining acceptable turbine temperatures during thrust modulation. T
