ABSTRACT:
A turbine engine for powering aircraft, land vehicles and the like having a stationary member inclusive of casing portions defining a plurality of radially extending, spaced combustion chambers. A rotary member within the stationary member has two or more axially spaced turbine wheels mounted on a rotary shaft with the turbine wheels within the casing portions and arranged with turbine blades that receive exhaust gases from the chamber directed through vanes at a particular angle to enhance the thrust on the two turbine wheels. An impeller on the rotary shaft draws air along the axis of the shaft, out in a radial direction around the chambers, through minute openings in a manifold section, and back in a radial direction to disburse the air into the combustion chambers for burning of a fuel-air mixture therein to produce the exhaust gases. In one embodiment the air is introduced into the combustion chambers at right angles to the exhaust ducts and in another the exhaust ducts are arranged directly opposite each air-fuel nozzle and extend approximately 90.degree. from each other so as to direct the continuous stream of combustion gases directly to the respective turbine wheels.
