Abstract: An electric generator using imploding plasma dynamics for generating electric energy from fuel energy, which includes a substantially cylindrical vortex chamber bounded by a cylindrical chamber wall having an axis, an inward curved fuel inlet end wall, and an opposite inward curved exhaust end wall; a shroud surrounding the vortex chamber forming an air space between the chamber wall and the shroud; at least one air inlet entering the air space at an angle tangential to the air space; air compressor means fluidly communicating with the air inlet for injecting air into the air space; fuel-air mixture injection means disposed in the fuel inlet end wall; a mixing chamber in the fuel-air mixture injection means for mixing fuel with the air fluidly communicatng with the air space; a plasma expansion cone having an inlet fluidly communicating with the mixing chamber for receiving fuel-air mixture from the mixing chamber; ignition means in the plasma expansion cone for igniting the fuel-air mixture, and forming at l

Abstract: An energy converting apparatus is provided for converting liquid fuel to electrical and mechanical energy, including an exhaust chamber with external walls and an exhaust port; a gas turbine rotor in the exhaust chamber, with a central air inlet, a fuel inlet, a central exhaust gas inlet and a plurality of tangentially oriented gas ports. Air compressor means are provided for injecting air into the air inlet; fuel delivery means are provided for injecting fuel into the fuel inlet; an inwardly curved end wall in the exhaust chamber serves for receiving and reflecting exhaust gases ejected from the exhaust gas ports and maintaining an imploding vortex, wherein the imploding vortex is reflected back from the curved end wall. The imploding vortex forms electric charges on the external walls and the exhaust gases are ejected from the exhaust gas ports to turn the turbine rotor. Electrical take-off means are provided for taking off the electrical charges as electrical energy.
