Patent GB-839927-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in or relating to gas turbine power plants
IPC: F02K3/10
Filed: 1958-03-28
Abstract: 839,927. Gas turbine jet propulsion plant. SHEPHERD. G. R. (Westinghouse Electric International Co.). March 28, 1958, No. 10027/58. Class 110 (3). A gas turbine jet propulsion plant in which fuel is burnt in the turbine exhaust gases, the fuel being ignited by injecting a predetermined excess quantity of fuel through a nozzle into the main combustion apparatus has valve means associated with the fuel supply to the reheat manifold or the igniter nozzle or both, control means for operating the valve means and override means responsive to a predetermined fuel pressure in the reheat fuel manifold for restoring the valve means to normal position. A pump 32 supplies fuel through a control mechanism 33 and conduit 35 to manifolds 31a, 31b which in turn supply fuel to the nozzles 30 mounted in the reheat combustion chamber 27. An igniter mechanism 36, arranged to discharge a measured amount of fuel into the main combustion chamber 18 through a nozzle 38 to ignite the fuel issuing from the nozzles 30, is associated with the control mechanism 33. A by-pass conduit 39 with a normally closed solenoid-operated valve 40 is provided around the control mechanism 33. A normally open solenoid-operated valve 41 is provided in the conduit supplying fuel to the nozzle 38. When the pilot desires reheat he moves the lever 43 so that the contact 47 bridges the contacts 44. This causes the motor 32a to be energized and the valve 40 to be opened and the valve 41 to be closed. Under starting conditions, when the fuel pressure in the manifolds 31a, 31b is low, the contacts 52, 53 are in engagement so that a circuit is completed through the resistor 69, relay contacts 61, 64 and conductors 76, 77 so that the relay 63 is shunted and remains unenergized. Fuel is then supplied by the pump 32 through the control 33 and by-pass 39, so that in a short time the manifolds 31a, 31b are filled with fuel. When the fuel pressure in the manifolds reaches a preselected value the diaphragm 54 is deflected and the contacts 52, 53 separated. This causes the relay 63 to be energized which in turn causes the contacts 61, 62 to move out of engagement with the contacts 64, 65, whereupon the valves 40, 41 are deenergized and restored to their original positions. All the fuel to the nozzles 30 is then regulated by the control 33 and fuel is allowed to flow from the nozzle 38 so as to ignite the fuel from the nozzles 30. The pressure sensing device 49 is locked out of the circuit of the relay 51 so that any subsequent re-engagement of the contacts 52, 53 due to low manifold pressures which may result from operation at high altitude has no effect on the afterburner control circuit. To shut off the reheat the lever 43 is moved to the left so that the fuel pump motor 32a is de-energized.

Title: Improvements relating to ignition systems for surplus gas burners
Inventor: POTTS ERIC
IPC: F23G7/08
Filed: 1954-04-07
Abstract: 762,892. Igniting gas burners. SIMONCARVES, Ltd. March 30, 1955 [April 7, 1954], No. 10178/54. Class 75(3) Means for igniting gas issuing from a burner head at the top of a pipe 2, comprises an ignition pipe 5 terminating close to the burner head, means for filling the ignition pipe 5 with a mixture of combustible gas and air, electrical means for igniting the mixture at the bottom of the ignition pipe whereby a flame is propagated through the mixture to the end of the ignition pipe close to the burner head and timing means for starting the flow of gas to the ignition pipe and energizing the electrical ignition means after sufficient time has elapsed for the ignition pipe to become filled with mixture. Gas is directed into the lower end of the ignition pipe by a gas supply pipe 3 and air is entrained into the ignition pipe by the gas. In operation a manual switch 16 is closed to energize a motor 19 which drives a camshaft to close first a switch 20 and later a switch 21. The switch 20 opens an electro-magnetically operated valve 8 in the gas feed pipe 3 and the switch 21 energizes a sparking plug 15, mounted on the lower end of the ignition pipe. After a predetermined time the motor opens both switches 20, 21 and after a further interval the sequence is repeated. The operation may be started by a switch 17 adapted to be closed automatically when a gas holder is filled to capacity.

Abstract: <PICT:0788775/III/1> <PICT:0788775/III/2> A heat exchanger comprises a cylindrical housing 10 with an inlet for pebbles which may be catalytic at its upper end and an outlet for pebbles at its lower end, a fluid inlet 20 adjacent the pebble outlet and a fluid outlet 22 adjacent the pebble inlet, a shaft 32 extending through the housing, and a series of dished perforated plates 14, 16 fixed to the shaft to rotate therewith and hence provide an elongated flow path for the pebbles.  The latter fall on to the centre of the uppermost plate 14 and are caused by a combination of gravitational and centrifugal forces to travel in a spiral path to the outer periphery of the plate 14 where they fall on to the outer periphery of the uppermost plate 16 which is more steeply inclined than the plate 14 so that the pebbles travel towards the shaft 32 and fall through openings 38 onto the next plate 14 and so on.  In an alternative construction, all of the plates form the same angle with the shaft 32 and alternate plates are fixed to the housing 10 to direct the pebbles towards the centre of the casing.  The pebbles, which may have a metal or ceramic base and be inert or catalytic, transfer heat from a hot combustion gas flowing through the casing 10 to a cold gas flowing through a similar housing 12.  An elevating means 29 returns the pebbles to the top of the housing 10.  The shaft 32 may extend through both housings, or if the latter are not in alignment, separate shafts may be used.  Seals may be used in ducts 28, 30 and at 18 between the housings.
