Abstract

621,407. Gas turbine plant; jet propulsion of aircraft. MORDELL, D. L. Jan. 3, 1947, No. 291. [Class, 110(iii)] A gas turbine plant comprises one or more main turbine-compressor sets and an auxiliary turbine-compressor set for starting purposes. During normal running the auxiliary set may be used for supplying cooling air to the main sets and for driving auxiliary equipment. The auxiliary set may have one compressor large enough to provide air for its own combustion chamber and for starting the main set, or, it may include two compressors. The air for starting the main set may be delivered to an auxiliary combustion chamber. In the plant shown, the separate rotors 15, 17 of a two-stage turbine drive a double entry compressor 12 and an airscrew 18. The auxiliary set 11 delivers air through a pipe 26 which for starting purposes, goes to a combustion chamber 28 and thence to the main turbine 14. During normal running the air passes, by pipe 21 to the space within a conical casing part 20 and is used for cooling.
