ABSTRACT:
A self starting turbine (10) is disclosed. An auxiliary pulse combustor (23) is provided having a separate output nozzle (36) from the discharge orifice (20) of a constant pressure combustor (18) for providing pressure pulses which impinge on the blades (22) of the rotor (14) of the turbine to provide starting torque. The utilization of a separate pulse combustion chamber (24) and discharge orifice 36 having a cross-sectional area different from the discharge orifice (20) of the constant pressure combustor (18) permits efficient pulse operation without adversely affecting the operation of the constant pressure combustor during normal sustained operation of the turbine.
