ABSTRACT:
A high performance turbine engine includes refrigeration apparatus powered by the engine and effective upon a fractional air flow received from the engine compressor to provide chilled air for cooling of internal engine components. The refrigeration process facilitates rejection of unwanted heat to ambient air despite high stagnation temperatures at high flight speeds. The invention allows increased turbine inlet temperature and improved fuel efficiency or thrust per pound of engine weight with present-day metals and cooling technology being used for engine construction.
