A source of pneumatic power is disclosed in which liquid oxygen and a liquified inert gas are stored within a dewar separated by a flexible membrane. The liquid oxygen is mixed in a combustion chamber with a hydrocarbon fuel, such as aviation fuel, and ignited. The liquified inert gas is supplied to the combustion chamber where it is vaporized and expands. Thus, a high pressure gas is produced for operating pneumatic devices. |
