Abstract

763,359. Generating combustion products under pressure. LUCAS (INDUSTRIES), Ltd., J. Feb. 10, 1955 [Jan. 21, 1954; April 1, 1954], Nos. 1807/54 and 9550/54. Class 51 (1). In a liquid fuel combustion chamber comprising a tubular or annular flame tube disposed within an outer air casing, a nose piece disposed at the inlet end of the flame tube is combined with an air duct which terminates in a vortex chamber, the latter having at one side an outlet through which air passes into the flame tube, a fuel nozzle located coaxially with the outlet of the vortex chamber being disposed either within the vortex chamber or within the flame tube. The combustion equipment shown in Figs. 1 and 2 comprises an annular flame tube a .disposed within an annular outer air casing b, c, a nose piece g disposed at the inlet end of the flame tube guiding the incoming air to the inner and outer air spaces. Some of the air passing to the inner space b is led off through ducts h to a series of vortex chambers i located within the nose piece g, each chamber having a fuel nozzle f and an outlet into the flame tube. The equipment in Figs. 4 and 5 comprises a tube type flame tube a disposed within the outer air casing b and a central air duct m is disposed within the nose piece g. Air passing through the duct m issues through an annular opening n into four vortex chambers i disposed between the duct m and the nose piece g. Each vortex chamber has an outlet j and contains a fuel nozzle f concentric with the outlet. Secondary air flows through the annular passage o between the nose piece and the upstream end of the flame tube wall. The embodiment of Fig. 6 is similar to that of Figs. 4 and 5 except that the fuel is vaporized and the fuel inlet nozzles are located within the flame tube not within the vortex chambers. Fuel flows through the ducts q and p where it becomes vaporized and issues in an upstream direction opposite the outlets j from the vortex chambers i. The combustion equipment is suitable for jet propulsion engines or gas turbine engines.
