Zusammenfassung:An improved power generation system for aircraft and methods of its operation are provided, wherein the system combines a wave reformer providing a contiguous fuel supply to a jet engine, and use of ammonia as the fuel source from which hydrogen and/or a duel supply of ammonia and hydrogen will be supplied to aircraft jet engines leading to a higher thermal efficiency than existing engines with low to no direct emission footprint.
