  • JET ENGINE WITH CONSUMABLE ARC-PLASMA ELECTRODES
    Publication number: 20260098522
    Abstract: An exemplary air-breathing plasma engine and methods of operation are disclosed employing an arc plasma chamber that generates plasma, e.g., electrode-coupled, direct current plasma, via electrodes continuously fed by an electrode-feeding assembly. The plasma chamber can be implemented in any one of the stages following the compression stage and having high-pressure and high-velocity air flow, e.g., for a jet engine, turbojet engine, or rocket engine.
    Type: Application
