The present invention relates to a turbine engine which is provided with a thrust reverser incorporating doors and which is of double flow type with mixing of said flows, i.e. comprising a central generator emitting a flow of hot gas and surrounded by an annular by-pass conduit through which passes a flow of relatively cold gas, said central generator being provided with a hot flow exhaust nozzle comprising means for mixing said hot and cold flows. According to the invention, the turbine engine comprises controllable means for inhibiting, at least partially, the means for mixing the flows.

In a by-pass gas turbine engine comprising: a central generator including a central jet exhaust pipe having an exit end adapted to emit a first jet of relatively hot gas; an annular by-pass conduit surrounding said central jet exhaust pipe, said by-pass conduit having an exit end adapted to emit a second annular jet of relatively cold gas enveloping said first jet of relatively hot gas; means for mixing said first and second jets, said mixing means being constituted by convolutions made on said exit end of said central jet exhaust pipe and channels for guiding said second jet towards said first jet being formed between said convolutions, the convolutions being arranged such that the channels extend radially inwardly into the exit end of the jet exhaust pipe and lie radially inwardly of the annular by-pass conduit; and a thrust reverser located downstream of the exit ends of said central jet exhaust pipe and said by-pass conduit, said thrust reverser comprising doors movable between a folded position in which said doors are clear of said first and second jets and an unfolded position in which said doors are disposed transversely in the path of said jets, the improvement comprising: obturating means capable of extending into at least one of the channels of said mixing means, thereby selectively obturating at least one of the cahnnels of the mixing means, the obturating means comprising transverse flaps pivotable about axes disposed in the annular by-pass conduit, the shape of the flaps corresponding to the cross-section of the channels and the flaps being arranged so as to obturate the channels without substantially reducing the cross-sectional are of the annular by-pass conduit, the obturating means and the thrust reverser being coupled in operation such that said at least one channel is obturated when said doors are unfolded.
