ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to an aerodynamic fuel combustor for generating hot gases, including means forming a mixing chamber and a combustion chamber, and a flameholder therebetween. Means are provided for admitting desired proportions of fuel gas and air to the mixing chamber to form a combustible gas under a controlled pressure; in one form, these means comprise a jet ejector. The flameholder is a vortex generator having one or more flow channels shaped to supply swirling gases to the combustion chamber. The flow channels form a substantial exit angle with respect to the axis of the combustion chamber, but not exceeding 60.degree., and are formed by airfoils terminating in bluff trailing edges of substantial area to cause eddying flow. The cooler gas molecules are centrifuged to the outside of the burning gas in the combustion chamber, thus cooling the chamber walls.
