An eductor assembly is provided that includes a primary nozzle, a cooler plenum, and a surge plenum. In one embodiment, and by way of example only, the primary nozzle is configured to accelerate and discharge turbine exhaust gas therefrom and the cooler plenum surrounds the primary nozzle and includes at least a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The surge plenum partially surrounds the primary nozzle and the cooler plenum and includes at least a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. The surge plenum fluid outlet axially aligns and is coterminous with the cooler plenum fluid outlet.

We claim: 1. An eductor assembly comprising: a primary nozzle configured to accelerate and discharge turbine exhaust gas therefrom, the primary nozzle disposed about a longitudinal axis; a cooler plenum surrounding a circumference of the primary nozzle and including at least a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, the cooler plenum disposed at an axial location and extending along the longitudinal axis, the cooler plenum fluid inlet disposed radially outwardly of a first angular location on the circumference; and a surge plenum surrounding only a first portion of the circumference of the primary nozzle and the cooler plenum and extending along the longitudinal axis at the axial location of the cooler plenum, the surge plenum including at least a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, the surge plenum fluid inlet disposed radially outwardly of a second angular location on the circumference that is different from the first angular location, the surge plenum fluid outlet axially aligned and coterminous with the cooler plenum fluid outlet, wherein: the cooler plenum is configured to have a plurality of cooler plenum radial heights each located at angular locations around the circumference of the nozzle, the cooler plenum radial heights decreasing in size as a distance from the cooler plenum fluid inlet increases, and the surge plenum is configured to have a plurality of surge plenum radial heights each located at angular locations around the first portion of the circumference of the nozzle, the surge plenum radial heights decreasing in size as a distance from the surge plenum fluid inlet increases. 2. The assembly of claim 1, further comprising a wall disposed between the cooler plenum and the surge flow plenum. 3. The assembly of claim 1, further comprising a baffle disposed within the oil cooler plenum. 4. The assembly of claim 1, further comprising an oil cooler in communication with the cooler plenum fluid inlet. 5. The assembly of claim 4, further comprising a surge bleed entry duct in communication with the surge plenum fluid inlet. 6. The assembly of claim 5, wherein the cooler plenum fluid inlet is disposed substantially opposite the primary nozzle from the surge plenum fluid inlet. 7. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the cooler plenum is configured to allow gas to flow around a circumference of the primary nozzle at a substantially constant flow velocity. 8. The assembly of claim 1, wherein; a first cooler plenum radial height is located at the first angular location, a second cooler plenum radial height, and a third cooler plenum radial height are substantially equal to each other and are disposed equidistant from the first cooler plenum cross sectional area. 9. The assembly of claim 1, wherein; a first cooler plenum radial height is located at the first angular location, a second cooler plenum radial height and a third cooler plenum radial height are substantially equal to each other and the second cooler plenum radial height is disposed a circumferential distance away from the first angular location that is greater than a circumferential distance between the third cooler plenum radial height and the first angular location. 10. The assembly of claim 1, wherein the fluid inlet of the cooler plenum and the fluid inlet of the surge plenum are axially aligned with each other.
