A drainmast for discharging fluid from a body in motion, such as an aircraft in flight, may include a barrier disposed at a distal portion of the drainmast. The barrier may extend downstream from the drainmast trailing edge, and may be disposed at a negative angle of attack to a local free-stream airflow, thereby forming a downdraft over the barrier to prevent migration of discharged fluid towards an aircraft skin. In some embodiments, the drainmast may include one or more vanes, disposed internally within a discharge conduit of the drainmast, for deflecting fluid flow within the drainmast towards a direction of free-stream airflow outside the drainmast. Methods for channeling fluid away from an external surface of an aircraft in flight are also disclosed.

A bleed valve assembly for discharging bleed air into a gas turbine engine bypass plenum includes a bleed flow duct, a bleed valve, and a flow deflector. The bleed flow duct is contoured such that it delivers uniformly flowing bleed air to the flow deflector when the bleed valve is in the open position. The flow deflector has a plurality of openings formed therein. Each opening fluidly communicates the bleed air flow passage with the bypass plenum. A portion of the openings are oriented at a discharge angle such that bleed air is discharged from each opening in a direction that does not have a vector component in the direction in which air is flowing in the bypass plenum, and another portion of the openings are oriented to provide stress relief to the deflector.

A negative pressure valve assembly is provided. The valve assembly comprises a valve port assembly comprising a port and a flange substantially surrounding the port, a valve comprising a plate adapted to substantially cover the port, the plate comprising a minor edge, a major edge having a major edge length, and a plate biasing assembly stop located at a first position along the major edge, the first position more than 50% of the major edge length as measured from the minor edge. The valve assembly further comprises a hinge coupled to the plate, the hinge adapted to couple the plate to the flange, and first plate biasing assembly adapted to couple to the valve port assembly and to bias the plate towards the valve port assembly, the first plate biasing assembly comprising a resilient member adapted to contact the stop plate.

Methods of manufacturing a noise attenuator are provided. In an embodiment, by way of example only, the method includes shaping a plate to have a three-dimensional contour, and forming a plurality of openings through the shaped plate with an abrasive fluid jet to thereby form the bleed valve noise attenuator. In another embodiment, a bleed valve assembly is provided. By way of example only, the assembly includes a plate having a three-dimensional contour including a rim section surrounding a dome section and a plurality of openings formed in at least one of the rim section and the dome section, the plate comprising a material having no recast material thereon.
