ABSTRACT:
A closed cycle gas turbine engine has sealed therein a working medium, within a working chamber, a closed exhaust manifold, a gas recirculating path, and a plasma gas generator, with a turbine rotor rotating within the working chamber. High voltage pulses of very brief duration are periodically applied to the plasma gas generator, causing electrical discharges to form a plasma in said working medium, thereby producing high pressure motive gas. Resultant flows of high-pressure motive gas drive the turbine rotor, providing a high level of output power from the engine with no consumption of a fuel. The pressure of the motive gas is reduced in the closed exhaust manifold and recirculated to the motive gas generator through the gas recirculating path for next electrical discharge. The engine is suitable for driving a mechanism such as a vehicle, machine etc.
