ABSTRACT:
A turbine power plant of particularly inexpensive construction and using static expansion of the combustion gas to accelerate slugs of liquid used as the motive power for a Pelton wheel. The turbine power plant comprises a fuel combustion unit producing combustion gas which serves to impart speed to slugs of an auxiliary liquid, like water, in output pipes; this auxiliary liquid acts on a Pelton wheel to produce rotary drive. A part of the auxiliary liquid is reconverted as slugs to compress the air supplied to the fuel combustion unit. The turbine power plant also includes a second Pelton wheel driving a common shaft for an air fan, and a pair of rotating nozzles arranged to produce the said slugs of auxiliary liquid. The second Pelton wheel is driven by part of the auxiliary liquid.
