  • Device for igniting fuel injected into a rapidly flowing gaseous medium
    Patent number: 4125998
    Abstract: An auxiliary chamber or ignition "prechamber" for afterburners of aeronautical turbine engines draws in, through a perforated plate, a carbureted mixture produced by fuel projected against an anvil by an injection manifold, and the injection manifold also issues a jet of fuel into a tube which discharges into the chamber downstream of a spark plug. The produced flame is guided into a flame stabilizer.
