TURBINE EXHAUST DRAIN SYSTEM
20220136410 · 2022-05-05 ·

A turbine exhaust drain system has a sump where liquid collects and a suction pipe having an inlet end fluidly connected to the sump and an outlet end fluidly connected to a core gas path of a turbine exhaust case. In use, the combustion gases flowing through the exhaust case creates a venturi effect to draw the liquid from the sump into the core gas path where the liquid and the combustions gases combine into a mixed flow before being discharged through an outlet end of the exhaust case.

Variable jet pump

A bleed system including control circuitry and a variable jet pump. The control circuitry is configured to receive a signal indicative of a fluid parameter in the bleed system and cause the jet pump to alter a mixing ratio of a higher pressure gas and a lower pressure gas based on the signal. The jet pump is configured to combine the lower pressure gas and the higher pressure gas in the mixing ratio to generate a mixed gas. The jet pump is configured to supply the mixed gas to one or more gas loads in the bleed system. In examples, the control circuitry is configured to establish a system setpoint for the fluid parameter based on an operating status of the one or more gas loads.

Apparatus and method for evacuating very large volumes

A target volume evacuation system includes a turbo compressor and a vacuum pump, the system being operable in a first configuration to reduce the target volume pressure from ambient to a first intermediate pressure, e.g. between 200 mbar and 50 mbar, and in a second configuration to further reduce the pressure from a second intermediate pressure, e.g. 10 mBar, to a target partial vacuum, e.g. between 0.1 and 1 mbar. The turbo compressor can be driven electrically or by fuel combustion, and can be a conventional or modified turbojet engine. A plurality of turbo compressors can be transitioned from parallel to series operation. The pressure can be reduced from the first to the second intermediate pressure by venting the target volume to a boom-tank volume and/or by configuring the turbo compressor system to provide backing to the vacuum pumping system. The invention is applicable to a hyperloop transport system.
