Abstract
Thrust reverser systems are critical components in modern aviation, enabling aircraft to decelerate effectively upon landing and reducing reliance on wheel braking mechanisms. This research paper delves into the aerodynamic thrust reverser system, exploring its fundamental working principles, design considerations, and overall efficiency. Unlike mechanical reversers, aerodynamic reversers manipulate airflow to redirect engine thrust for deceleration. This study investigates the implementation of such systems in contemporary aircraft, the engineering challenges they present, and their impact on operational safety. The paper also discusses the system's limitations, expected performance results, and future advancements in the field.
