Abstract

See full text

A powerplant is provided that includes a pre-burner, a combustor, a power turbine, a mechanical load and a propellant system. The combustor is fluidly coupled with and downstream of the pre-burner. The power turbine is fluidly coupled with and downstream of the combustor. The mechanical load is rotatably driven by the power turbine. The propellant system is configured to direct fluid oxygen and fluid hydrogen to the pre-burner to provide an oxygen rich fuel mixture for combustion within the pre-burner. The propellant system is also configured to direct the fluid hydrogen to the combustor for combustion within the combustor with oxygen within combustion products received from the pre-burner.
