Jet engine with rotor and nozzles on control shaft - expelled compressed fluid produces rotary movement

摘要

Rotary jet engine rotatable rotor is fitted on a central drive shaft over the circumference of which a quantity of tangential nozzles are distributed. A compressed fluid in the rotor main chamber is fed in through the central inlet shaft and expelled via nozzles which all point in the same direction. The expulsion of fluid thus causes the rotor to move backwards. The outer housing of the rotor has a quantity of smaller or pre-chambers which connect the main chamber with the tangential nozzles. The rotor is enclosed in an outer housing which collects the outflowing fluid and controls is passage. The central inlet shaft is stationary and has a separate lubricant channel.
