Augmenter for compound compression engine |
摘要 |
A rotary engine includes a first rotary unit operable to provides a first phase of compression to a fresh air charge drawn in through an inlet port to the first rotary unit. A second rotary unit in communication with the first rotary unit through a first passage, the second rotary unit operable to provide a second phase of compression to the first phase of compression, a combustion phase and a first phase of expansion, the second rotary unit in communication with the first rotary unit through a second passage such that the first rotary unit provides a second phase of expansion to the first phase of expansion and an exhaust phase that exhausts the first rotary unit via an exhaust port. A first fuel injector is in communication with the second rotary unit operable to initiate the combustion phase and a second fuel injector is in communication with the first rotary unit operable to selectively initiate augmented operation. |

1. A process of extracting work out of a rotary engine comprising:
drawing a fresh air charge into a first rotary unit; compressing the fresh air charge into a compressed air charge and a remaining compressed air charge in the first rotary unit; transmitting the compressed air charge from the first rotary unit to a second rotary unit; compressing the compressed air charge into a compound compressed air charge in the second rotary unit; injecting a first fuel into the compound compressed air charge in the second rotary unit; combusting the first fuel with the compound compressed air charge into an exhaust in the second rotary unit; expanding the exhaust in the second rotary unit; transmitting the exhaust from the second rotary unit into the remaining compressed air charge in the first rotary unit; injecting a second fuel into the exhaust and the remaining compressed air charge in the first rotary unit; and combusting the second fuel with the remaining compressed air charge and the exhaust within the first rotary unit to initiate an afterburning mode. |
