ABSTRACT:
Difficulties in controlling the flow of oxidant to a combustor (10) in a stored energy system for driving a gas turbine (16) resulting from Joule-Thompson cooling of the oxidant are avoided in a system wherein a hot gas distributor (50, 50', 60) is disposed within an oxidant storage vessel (40, 60) to add heat to gases near the outlet (42) of the bottle (40, 60) as a result of the firing of a squib (54) in fluid communication therewith. The heating of the gases at the outlet (42) raises the temperature of the oxidant sufficiently to offset Joule-Thompson cooling.
