Power generation system and corresponding power generating method

摘要

A power generation system contains a compressor stage, a pre-burner stage, a combustion stage and a turbine stage. The pre-burner stage heats a portion of flow from the compressor stage to impart a higher temperature within the flow. The heated flow is directed to the combustion stage which contains at least one pulse detonation combustor. Downstream of the combustion stage is a turbine stage. In a further embodiment of the power generation system a fuel is heated prior to the combustion within the combustion stage.
