ABSTRACT:
A rotary device employs an outer housing having an interior surface with a central axis associated therewith, an outer hub assembly, disposed inside said outer housing, having a central axis associated therewith located at a distance from the central axis of the outer housing, an inner hub, disposed inside the outer hub assembly, having a central axis associated therewith and being substantially coaxial with the outer housing, and a plurality of blades, hingedly connected at one end to the inner hub and radiating through the outer hub assembly to contact the interior surface of the outer housing at the other end of the blades, whereby a plurality of relatively airtight compartments are formed between the interior surface of the outer housing, the outer hub assembly, and pairs of blades, with the volume of said compartments varying as a function of the rotative position of the inner hub and outer hub assembly. The rotary device can be used as a compressor having an inlet for receiving fresh air and an outlet for providing compressed air. The rotary device can also have an inlet for receiving working fluid, an exhaust for venting working fluid, a combustor for burning gases in a combustion chamber which are provided as working fluid to said inlet, and a compressor for providing compressed air to said combustor. The combustor can also heat an expansion gas which is mixed with the burning gas before being provided to the inlet.
