Abstract
870,266. Generating combustion products under pressure. GARRETT CORPORATION. Aug. 9, 1957, No. 25285/57. Class 51 (1). [Also in Group XXVI] A multistage turbine is supplied with heated hydrogen gas as a working fluid. The exhaust hydrogen from the final stage is burnt, with an oxidant, in one side of a heat-exchanger to heat the supply hydrogen to the turbine. The three turbine stages 31, 33, 37 are connected through heat-exchangers 22, 27 and are supplied with hydrogen from tank 12 through the heat-exchanger 17. The latter is heated by exhaust hydrogen from the stage 37, burnt in combustion chamber 39 with liquid oxygen from tank 41. After leaving 17 the hydrogen is cooled in heat-exchangers 22, 27 before entry to the turbine first stage 31. 22 and 27 heat the hydrogen before entry to the succeeding stages 33, 37. In the case of an aircraft engine, the combustion chamber 39 may be supplied with either oxygen or air. In addition, unburnt hydrogen leaving the heatexchanger is burnt in an after-burner in the propulsion unit nozzle. Specification 870,271 is referred to.
