Patent ID: 8061327

Claim:
A tangential rotary combustion turbine comprising: a) a rotor within a casing, wherein said rotor rotates relative to said casing, b) wherein said rotor has a plurality of lobes, c) at least one combustion cycle per rotation of said rotor, wherein said combustion cycle comprises: aa) one combustion lever mounted on said casing, bb) one exhaust lever mounted on said casing, cc) a first lobe and a second lobe, dd) an ignition chamber that is created by the geometry of: i) said first lobe, ii) said casing, and iii) said combustion lever, ee) a compression chamber that is created by the geometry of: i) said second lobe, ii) said casing, and iii) said combustion lever, ff) wherein said combustion lever admits an initial quantity of air from said compression chamber to said ignition chamber by following a curve on said rotor, gg) wherein a combustible mixture of fuel and air is used to release energy within said ignition chamber according to a predetermined criterion, hh) wherein said released energy acts upon said rotor and causes said rotor to rotate, ii) wherein the rotation of said rotor causes additional compression of air in said compression chamber, jj) wherein the rotation of said rotor causes an additional quantity of air to be injected from said compression chamber into said ignition chamber through nozzles in said combustion lever over a stroke, wherein said additional quantity of air is used for the purpose of additionally releasing energy, kk) wherein any released energy additionally acts upon said rotor for power output.
