摘要： The engine includes a stator including an inlet to admit a compressed gaseous oxidant flow, and an exhaust to discharge burnt gases; and a rotor mounted in the stator in a fluid-tight manner and rotatable with respect to the stator around a rotation axis. The rotor has an inlet orifice oriented in the axial direction and faces the inlet opening in a manner to receive the compressed air flow, a combustion chamber communicating with the inlet orifice, and an exhaust duct which leads in a transverse direction from the combustion chamber to the periphery of the rotor for discharging burnt gases through the exhaust. The inlet, the combustion chamber and the exhaust duct are arranged in fluid communication with each other during the rotor rotation, without the interposition of valve members. Seal members seal the inlet orifice and the exhaust duct when they face the internal surface of the stator.

摘要： A portion of the internal energy of a mass flow of a compressible fluid, such as air, is transformed efficiently into greatly increased flow kinetic energy by passing the flow through a set of converging nozzles in a cylindrical rotor; this accelerates the isentropic flow to sonic speed generating large thrust. The nozzle thrust generates torque, thus rotating the rotor which is coupled to a power take-off for doing useful work. The mass flow of air through the apparatus is supplied by a vacuum pump.

摘要： A gas-jet driven rotary device is provided which, when being operated, creates a field which may be utilized to treat a variety of electrical, chemical, and mechanical systems, device and/or components for increased performance gains. The device includes a wheel-like rotor mounted between parallel walls defining part of a housing capable of being hermetically sealed such that a vacuum may be formed within the housing. One feature of the rotor is the structure forming the arcuate segment of the passageway around the shaft, which includes a flexible inner tube centered concentrically within a rigid outer tube or conduit of larger diameter. The annular space between the inner and outer tubes is in communication with the atmosphere. To power the rotary device, compressed gas is fed to it through the inlet opening into the passageway. The gas flows through the passageway and out the exit port in the form of a jet which imparts thrust to the rotor and causes it to spin.

摘要： A pulse detonation system for a gas turbine engine having a longitudinal centerline axis extending therethrough includes a rotatable cylindrical member having a forward surface, an aft surface, and an outer circumferential surface, where at least one stage of circumferentially spaced detonation chambers is disposed therein. The pulse detonation system further includes a shaft rotatably connected to the cylindrical member and a stator configured in spaced arrangement around the forward surface, the aft surface, and the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical member and a portion of the shaft. The stator has at least one group of ports formed therein which sequentially align with the detonation chambers as the cylindrical member rotates. In this way, detonation cycles are performed in the detonation chambers of each detonation stage so that reaction forces induced by the detonation cycles create a torque which causes the cylindrical member to rotate. Each detonation chamber includes a first open end located adjacent the outer circumferential surface of the cylindrical member and a second closed end located within a middle portion of the cylindrical member.

摘要： A trapped vortex combustor for gas turbine engines. An annular combustor housing is provided having a plurality of inlet centerbodies disposed along a helical axis. The inlet centerbodies include a leading edge structure, opposing sidewalls, a pressurizable cavity, and a rear wall. Inlet centerbodies cooperate with adjacent structure and an aft bluff body to define a trapped vortex cavity combustion chamber for mixing an inlet fluid and burning fuel to form hot combustion gases. Mixing is enhanced by utilizing struts adjacent to the rear wall to create eddies in the fluid flow, and by injecting fuel and/or air in opposition to swirl created by the bulk fluid flow. Hot combustion gases are utilized in a turbine for extraction of kinetic energy, or in heat exchange equipment for recovery of thermal energy. High combustion efficiencies and less than 10 ppm emissions of oxides of nitrogen and of carbon monoxide are achieved.

摘要： A rotary ramjet engine. A rotary ramjet engine is provided operating with a very low axial flow component. The engine has a closely housed rotor and shaft mounted for rotary motion with respect to an engine case. A plurality of ramjet combustors are provided at the periphery of the rotor, and a set of spaced apart helical strakes are provided extending outward from the surface portion of the rotor toward the interior wall of the engine case, less a running clearance therefrom. A centerbody is provided for each ramjet inlet. The centerbody is disposed along a helical axis parallel to the strakes, and includes a leading edge structure, opposing sidewalls, and a shaped cavity, and a rear end wall. Each set of strakes cooperate to define, rearward of the rear end wall of each inlet centerbody, a combustion chamber for mixing therewithin and inlet fluid and burning fuel therein to form hot combustion gases therefrom. A ramjet outlet nozzle structure, including a converging ramjet nozzle throat, and diverging ramjet nozzle are provided for receiving the hot combustion gases and discharging, at a preselected helical angle to the plane of rotation of the rotor, a jet of hot combustion exhaust gases. The hot combustion exhaust gases can be further utilized in an impulse turbine for extraction of kinetic energy, or in heat exchange equipment for recovery of thermal energy therefrom.
