Abstract
The invention relates to a turbine, in particular a combustion gas turbine, which drives a high-speed generator for generating electricity, said turbine having a high efficiency. The turbine has at least one combustion chamber (6), which is provided with a fuel injection means (7) and an ignition device (8) and which supplies the turbine with a combustion gas. An external compressor (3) is associated with the turbine. Said compressor has a separate electric drive and is not connected to the turbine by means of a drive shaft. Furthermore, at least two combustion chambers (5) are provided for discontinuous, pulsed combustion and supply of the turbine.
Claims19
A combustion gas turbine, said combustion gas turbine comprising:
- a turbine wheel, at least one pulse detonation engine (PDE) combustion chamber (5) provided with a fuel injection means (7) and an ignition device (8), said at least one PDE combustion chamber supplying the turbine wheel with a combustion gas to drive a high-speed generator (2), said high-speed generator generating a current, at least one first external compressor and at least one second external compressor, and at least one electric drive motor, wherein the at least one first external compressor provides air to the at least one PDE combustion chamber, and wherein the at least one second external compressor provides air to an inlet of the turbine wheel, said inlet of the turbine wheel further containing the combustion gas from the at least one PDE combustion chamber.
