Abstract
The present disclosure envisages an engine operating on Jaypal cycle. The engine comprises a compressed air source. A combustion chamber is in fluid communication with the compressed air source and a fuel source, wherein the combustion chamber is configured to allow combustion of a fuel charge to produce combusted fuel charge. A first storage tank is in fluid communication with the combustion chamber, wherein the first storage tank is configured to store the combusted fuel charge, which is high pressure high temperature gas to perform work as per application requirements.
Claims12
An engine operating on Jaypal cycle, said engine comprising:
- a compressed air source;
- at least one combustion chamber in fluid communication with said compressed air source and a fuel source, said combustion chamber defining two operative ends and configured to allow combustion of a fuel charge to produce high pressure high temperature gaseous combusted fuel charge, said combustion chamber comprises:
- a housing defined by a body of said combustion chamber, said housing having a liner;
- at least one inlet valve disposed adjacent each operative end of said combustion chamber;
- at least one fuel injector disposed adjacent each operative end of said combustion chamber;
- at least one outlet valve disposed adjacent each operative end of said combustion chamber;
- and
- a piston having piston rings disposed within said combustion chamber, said piston being displaceable within said combustion chamber to facilitate an exhaust of said combusted fuel charge from each of said at least one outlet valve;
- and
- a means for directing compressed air from said compressed air source to said combustion chamber;
- said at least one inlet valve configured to regulate flow of compressed air from said compressed air source into said combustion chamber;
- a first storage tank in fluid communication with said combustion chamber, said first storage tank configured to store said combusted fuel charge, which is high pressure high temperature gas to perform work as per application requirements.
A process for operating an engine based on Jaypal cycle, said process comprising the following steps:
- compressing the atmospheric air;
- directing the compressed air through a means for directing the compressed air compressed air to a combustion chamber for facilitating combustion of a fuel charge in said combustion chamber and thus providing constant volume heat addition to said fuel charge to obtain combusted fuel charge;
- supplying said combusted fuel charge to a storage tank, where expansion of said combusted fuel charge occurs, which causes increased volume and reduced pressure relative to the pressure and volume of said combusted fuel charge in said combustion chamber and substantially equal to the pressure of said compressed air, thereby obtaining said high pressure high temperature gas;
- and
- supplying said high pressure high temperature gas to a load.
