Abstract:
A micro-combustion device generating electrical power raises global performance of the system, is compact, and reduces losses by utilizing an induced helical path. The device includes: injection ducts inserting a combustion agent, a fuel and/or a mixture thereof wherein the injection of the combustion agent takes place tangentially to the internal cylindrical wall, inducing a helical combustion path, the internal cylindrical walls of the chamber having a deposition of catalytic material to accelerate the combustion reaction; a turbo compressor group, including a compressor, feeding under pressure the combustion chamber through the injection ducts, and a turbine, receiving the flue gases from the discharge duct, compressor and turbine being keyed on the same axis, whereon a generator of electrical power, in turn, is keyed; and a fuel cell, fed by the flue gases through the turbine and by an oxidizing agent, implementing an electrochemical process generating additional electrical power.
