propulsion arrangement in which an engine swallows the slow airframe boundary layer or wake, so less propulsive power is needed for the same thrust.

In aerospace engineering, boundary layer ingestion refers to propulsion arrangement in which an engine swallows the slow airframe boundary layer or wake, so less propulsive power is needed for the same thrust. This meaning comes from Smith (1991) in 27th Joint Propulsion Conference.[1]
