ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine comprising a housing having a chamber of generally cylindrical periphery, a rotor mounted for rotation in the chamber, and a stator wall at one end of the chamber. The rotor has an end face in rotary sealing relationship with the stator wall and a peripheral surface in rotary sealing relationship with the periphery of the chamber. The rotor further has a plurality of recesses around its periphery, each recess extending radially into the rotor from the peripheral surface thereof and having a passage extending to the end face thereof. The housing has an inlet directing gas under pressure into the recesses. The stator wall blocks each passage at the end face for a part of a revolution of the rotor to hold the gas in the recesses for compression and is ported for exit of gas from each recess via its passage as the rotor rotates through another part of its revolution for expansion of the gas and resultant impulsing of the rotor. A second gas turbine embodiment having a combustor to provide gas under pressure for driving the turbine is also disclosed herein.
