Supersonic transports will require jet engine thrust nozzles that are highly efficient from takeoff to supersonic cruise to minimize direct operating costs; variable-area ejectors, plug nozzles, and modifications of basic types were tested extensively at Pratt and Whitney Aircraft; performance trends for nozzles are presented with emphasis on external flow effects; new ejector which utilizes aerodynamically actuated doors to admit external air into ejector shroud is described.
