Abstract
A hovercraft includes a plurality of energy storing containers for storing a low-temperature, high-pressure gas therein, a heat exchange device for performing heat exchange between the gas from the containers and a high-temperature exhaust from a gas turbine engine unit, and an air-cushion generating device accepting the gas from the heat exchange device so as to form an air cushion. The air-cushion producing method for the hovercraft includes producing the high-temperature exhaust from the gas turbine engine unit, providing the low-temperature, high-pressure gas, performing heat exchange between the gas from the containers and the exhaust from the gas turbine engine unit, combining the gas and the exhaust after the heat exchange by siphon action, and directing the gas and the exhaust into the air-cushion generating device.
