    摘要: The invention adds details and alternate design supplementing the concept established with my patent application Ser. No. 12/013,431, Aircraft Propulsion System (APS). The APS ultimate fuel economy objectives requires long term design development, and this invention compromises some fuel economy for the expediency of short term implementation of a heat regeneration for turbofans via the re-arrangement of existing components and a few unique items readily designed. While this Velarus Propulsion (VPx) attains only 42% fuel economy, it retains the original APS fundamental architecture implementing heat regeneration for a turbofan engine, as well as the additional benefits of noise and emission abatement. This invention consists of the three APS technologies as follows: a) A novel arrangement of the power generation core features the turbine exhaust entering directly into the thrust chamber, thus providing heat regeneration with an appropriate configuration of the thrust chamber. b) The design of a modified combustor introduces the concept of a supersonic nozzle driving the turbines which allows for greater combustor's chamber temperature while injecting the gases at temperatures acceptable to current turbine blade metallurgy. This feature increases the engine thermal efficiency. c) The hub design allows for two options, a simpler fixed fanblade design or an advanced controllable pitch fan blade, increasing the mission and performance flexibility of a given turbofan size. In addition, this invention adds functionality to the aft cone, such as debris purge, accessories installation, and thrust reversers free from hot gases.

    摘要: The invention is a novel aircraft propulsion system architecture that delivers thrust at minimum fuel consumption rates with the side benefits of noise and pollution emission abatement. The invention implements three technologies: a. Unique turbine nozzle design allowing for a cooling cycle, thus increasing its thermal efficiency. b. Specific jet-drive design propelling the fan blades allowing for power amplification. At any given shaft velocity, the output torque of a machine is proportional to shaft power. Jet-driven torque is insensitive to velocity. For nozzle velocities greater than 550 fps, there is power amplification (et propulsion principle). c. Specific exhaust and waste heat regeneration design increasing the fanjet thrust with no additional fuel consumption. This aircraft propulsion system invention is henceforth called APS.
