060269000 | Including mechanical air compressor or air flow inducing means | 8 |
20080250772 | Multi-stage apparatus for separating liquid droplets from gases - Disclosed is a device for separating liquids from gases comprising a preseparator that separates an untreated gas region from a preseparator gas region, a main separator comprising a coalescing element for increasing the size of liquid droplets and a post-separator. | 10-16-2008 |
20080256926 | DIFFUSER WITH IMPROVED EROSION RESISTANCE - A diffuser for a centrifugal compressor in a gas turbine engine, the diffuser including a diffuser ring having a series of bores defined therethrough to receive and direct air exiting the compressor, each bore being defined by a respective bore surface including a boride layer protecting the bore surface from erosion damage. | 10-23-2008 |
20090158705 | Hypermixing Fluid Ejector - The present invention provides a hypermixing fluid ejector. The ejector includes a reservoir containing a primary fluid and an ejector nozzle with a trailing-edge array of rectilinear orifices. The primary fluid is ejected through these orifices to entrain a secondary fluid, thereby creating a mixed fluid flow. A dividing line is defined on the trailing surface of the nozzle that is orthogonal to the linear axis of the ejector, and the orifices alternate above and below this dividing line in an abutting, offset manner. The orifices are geometrically inclined to produce spray cones that are convergent relative to this dividing line, resulting in convergent helical hypermixing of the primary fluid with the secondary fluid. | 06-25-2009 |
20100071345 | Thrust Engine - According to the present invention, a blade with lift-to-drag ratio greater than one can generate a lift force greater than the drag force on the blade when a fluid flows across the blade. The blade can be positioned within an enclosed engine to produce a force greater than the force required to move the fluid across the blade, thereby creating a thrust for the enclosed engine. The direction and the magnitude of the thrust may be controlled by controlling the direction of fluid flow. According to the present invention, fluid flowing inside a thrust engine may be gaseous or liquid. A thrust engine of the present invention uses one or more wings in a configurable environment to create a directional force. Thrust engines according to the present invention can be configured by varying fluid parameters, such as density or velocity, the wing parameters (such as wing geometry, lift coefficient or plane surface area of the wing), the number and the locations of wings, how the fluid receives energy, fluid motion, fixed or movable wings and the fluid path. | 03-25-2010 |
20110083420 | Subsonic and Stationary Ramjet Engines - A ramjet engine ( | 04-14-2011 |
20120131904 | ELECTRIC PROPULSION SYSTEM USEFUL IN JET-TYPE MODEL AIRPLANES AND UAVS - A power plant for a jet-type model airplanes and UAVs includes an electric motor and a cover. The cover receives a portion of the electric motor and a sleeve into which the electric motor is inserted. The sleeve has a plurality of fins to dissipate heat and create openings into the cover. Air from the fan rotor passes through the openings to cool an electronic speed control member and exits a rear opening in the cover. The cover may also have additional openings for air to enter into the cover. | 05-31-2012 |
20130174535 | FLUSHING THE EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION LINES OF A GAS TURBINE - A method and gas turbine are provided for the reliable purging of an exhaust gas recirculation line of the gas turbine with exhaust gas recirculation without the use of additional blow-off fans. A blow-off flow of the compressor is used for the purging of the exhaust gas recirculation line. The gas turbine can include at least one purging line which connects a compressor blow-off point to the exhaust gas recirculation line. | 07-11-2013 |
20150308383 | ENGINE FOR PROPELLING AN AIRCRAFT AND AIRCRAFT HAVING AT LEAST ONE ENGINE AND AT LEAST ONE HYDROGEN TANK - An engine for propelling an aircraft includes an annular fuel cell arrangement having at least one fuel cell, at least one electric motor couplable to the fuel cell arrangement, at least one fan couplable to the electric motor and a cowling having an inlet and an outlet nozzle. The fuel cell arrangement is arranged inside the cowling, the at least one fan is arranged between the inlet and the fuel cell arrangement inside the cowling, the electric motor is operable under consumption of electric power delivered by the fuel cell arrangement and the at least one fan is designed to produce a thrust force by creating an accelerated airflow at the outlet nozzle. The engine is extremely efficient and comprises a distinct low noise. | 10-29-2015 |
