Patent number: 11680522Abstract: A direct-fired gas turbine heater comprises a gas turbine engine, a main blower that receives cold air from the ambient, a mixing plenum that receives cold air from the main blower and hot gas from the turbine and delivers warm air, an air blower plenum that that receives cold air from the main air blower and delivers air to the mixing plenum, and an air intake plenum that receives cold air from the ambient and the air blower plenum and delivers cold air to a turbine compressor, an air intake valve, and an air starter valve. The gas turbine engine comprises the compressor that receives cold air, a fuel manifold that receives combustible fuel, a combustor that receives compressed air from the compressor and fuel from the fuel manifold, a turbine that receives hot gas from the combustor, and a shaft connecting the compressor and turbine.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Dynamo IP Holdings, LLCInventors: Jason How-Ring Ethier, German Lakov, Ivan Wang

Publication number: 20210324792Abstract: The present disclosure describes a micro gas turbine flameless heater, in which the heat is generated by burning fuel in a gas turbine engine, and the heater output air mixture is generated by transferring the heat in the gas turbine exhaust to the cold air drawn from the ambient environment. The present disclosure also describes component geometries and system layout for a gas turbine power generation unit that is designed for simple assembly, disassembly, and component replacement. The present disclosure also allows for quick removal of the rotating components of the gas turbine engine in order to reduce assembly and maintenance time. Furthermore, the present disclosure describes features that help to maintain safe operating temperatures for the bearings and structures of the gas turbine engine power turbine.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2021Publication date: October 21, 2021Applicant: Dynamo Micropower CorporationInventors: Erik Herold, Jason How-Ring Ethier, Alyssa Hatch, Ivan Wang

Publication number: 20210033024Abstract: This disclosure teaches a gas turbine heater that can be used in either portable or stationary applications. In one embodiment, a gas turbine heater includes a gas turbine engine that generates hot exhaust gas, an air blower that draws an amount of air flow from ambient, a mixing plenum that allows the gas turbine exhaust and ambient air flow to mix together to create warm air, and an outlet that delivers the warm air to the customer. In another embodiment, a gas turbine heater includes a gas turbine engine that generates hot exhaust gas, an air blower that draws an amount of air flow from ambient, an air-to-air heat exchanger that transfers heat from the gas turbine exhaust to the ambient air flow to create warm air, and an outlet that delivers the warm air to the customer.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 31, 2020Publication date: February 4, 2021Applicant: Dynamo Micropower CorporationInventors: Jason How-Ring Ethier, German Lakov, Ivan Wang
