Abstract

704,099. Gas turbine plant. MASCHINENFABRIK AUGSBURG-NURNBERG AKT.- GES. Aug. 16, 1951 [Aug. 23, 1950], No. 19392/51. Class 110 (3). [Also in Group XII] In a gas turbine plant of the kind described in Specification 701,175 the air supply to the turbine is led through a jacket surrounding the wall or walls of the combustion chamber, before passing into the turbine. A turbine 2 is actuated by the air drawn into the self igniting pulsating combustion chambers 1a, 16, 1c. Fuel is injected into the chambers by pipe 10a, 10b, 10c and ignited by an auxiliary ignition device. This causes positive pressure waves to advance down the chambers to the diffusers 3a, 3b, 3c, where the positive pressure wave is converted into a returning negative pressure wave which causes more air to be sucked into the combustion chambers through non-return valves 6a, 6b, 6c. These valves also prevent a flow in the upstream direction of the positive pressure wave. The air supply to the combustion chambers which is provided by the turbine driven compressor 11 flows through the jacket space 7 around the combustion chambers and is there heated. Fins may be provided on the combustion chamber walls to increase the rate of heat transfer. The combustion chambers may be operated in or out of phase. The length and cross section of the jacket 7 may be selected so that the air in it resonates in conformitv with the combustion chambers. This is stated to increase the heat transfer rate and to increase the pressure drop through the turbine. In a modification only a single combustion chamber is used. The compressor 11 may also be dispensed with. Specification 368,564, [Group XXXIII], also is referred to.
