Constant Volume Combustor

View page
US Patent:
7137243, Nov 21, 2006
Filed:
Jul 3, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/613290
Inventors:
Philip H. Snyder - Avon IN, US
Calvin W. Emmerson - Martinsville IN, US
Assignee:
Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. - Indianapolis IN
International Classification:
F02K 5/02
F02K 7/00
US Classification:
60247, 60 3938, 60772
Abstract:
A pressure wave apparatus utilizing the principles of pulsed detonation and wave rotor technologies. The apparatus includes inlet and outlet ports that interface with a plurality of fluid flow passageways on a rotor. A buffer gas is routed through some of the inlet and outlet ports and into and out of the plurality of fluid flow passageways. One of the inlet ports is a buffer gas inlet port that when placed in registry with a fluid flow passageway allows the flow of buffer gas into the respective passageway. Fuel is delivered into the buffer gas proximate the buffer gas inlet port so that only a portion of the buffer gas inlet port receives any fuel.

US Patent:
7621118, Nov 24, 2009
Filed:
Oct 24, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/585689
Inventors:
Philip H. Snyder - Avon IN, US
Calvin W. Emmerson - Martinsville IN, US
Assignee:
Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. - Indianapolis IN
International Classification:
F02K 5/02
F02K 7/00
US Classification:
60247, 60 3938, 60772
Abstract:
A constant volume combustor device includes, in one form, a detonative combustion. In one form the wave rotor of the constant volume combustor is supported by magnetic bearings. The constant volume combustor device includes a rotor having a number of fluid passageways that rotate about an axis. End plates having at least one inlet port and at least one outlet port are located on either end of the rotor. Relatively compressed air enters the rotor through the at least one inlet port, is burned with fuel in a pulsed combustion process, and exits at least one exit port. The pulsed combustion process can be a pulsed detonation combustion process or a pulsed deflagration combustion process.

US Patent:
8241005, Aug 14, 2012
Filed:
Oct 16, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/288053
Inventors:
Calvin W. Emmerson - San Diego CA, US
Stephen N. Hammond - Brownsburg IN, US
Assignee:
Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. - Indianapolis IN
International Classification:
B64C 11/24
F01D 5/18
US Classification:
416233, 416236 R, 415106, 415115
Abstract:
In one embodiment a centrifugal impeller has an axis of rotation, a plurality of blades, and a plurality of pitches defined between the blades. A cavity may be formed in a back side of the impeller, opposite with at least one of the plurality of pitches. In one form the cavity may not extend below a radius determined according to a stress criteria or stress limitation.

8555612, Oct 15, 2013
Filed:
Feb 21, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/401476
Inventors:
Philip H. Snyder - Avon IN, US
Calvin W. Emmerson - Martinsville IN, US
Assignee:

Diffuser For A Compressor

View page
US Patent:
8596968, Dec 3, 2013
Filed:
Nov 18, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/620897
Inventors:
Calvin W. Emmerson - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Rolls-Royce North American Technologies, Inc. - Indianapolis IN
International Classification:
F04D 29/44
US Classification:
4152083, 4152111, 4152112, 416176
Abstract:
A diffuser is provided having a number of diffuser channels defined by a top wall, bottom wall, and two sidewalls. The sidewalls can be constructed according to an involute of a circle which provides constant interwall distance between the sidewalls along the length of the diffuser channel. The top and bottom walls, however, diverge from one another along the length of the diffuser channel to provide a desired diffusion.

Turbine Cooling

View page
US Patent:
39633683, Jun 15, 1976
Filed:
Dec 19, 1967
Appl. No.:
4/691834
Inventors:
Calvin W. Emmerson - Mooresville IN
Assignee:
General Motors Corporation - Detroit MI
International Classification:
F01D 514
US Classification:
415115
Abstract:
A cooling arrangement for high temperature turbines, particularly the first stage nozzles of gas turbine engines. Cooling is effected by compressor discharge air taken from the combustion chamber jacket of the engine. The shrouds of the nozzle have a base ring and a porous facing spaced from the base ring and exposed to the motive fluid. Cooling air fed through openings in the base ring flows through the porous facing into the motive fluid path to cool the facing by transpiration. The vanes are cooled by an arrangement providing for a mixture of impingement and transpiration cooling. Compressor discharge air is admitted between a baffle in the interior of the hollow vane and the high pressure face of the vane. Some of the air flows through the porous high pressure face for transpiration cooling. The rest of the air is discharged through a row of openings in the baffle to impinge on and cool the interior of the leading edge of the vane, which is imperforate.
