Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A pulse detonation power generation apparatus is provided. This apparatus is provided with a detonation chamber connected to fuel and air sources which detonate to produce energy which may be converted to electrical energy. The pulse detonation energy generator may have one or more detonation chambers, each having an inlet end and an outlet end; a fuel manifold for supplying fuel from a fuel source to said generator; an air manifold for supplying air to said generator; a pre-mixer operatively connected to said fuel manifold, air manifold, and the inlet end of said one or more detonation chambers; an impingement ring disposed along an internal wall of said pre-mixer; a disk valve positioned between the pre-mixer and the air manifold; a predetonator for initiating detonation in said detonation chambers; a rotary valve for pulse feeding an oxidizer or fuel to the predetonator; means for injecting liquid water or steam into combustion products produced in said detonation chambers; and means for converting the energy generated by a detonation in said detonation chambers into electrical energy.
