Application: Power modules with regenerative compressor wheels (Patent ID: US20240133388A1)
The patent filed by Raytheon Technologies Corp. describes a power module that includes a turbine, an interconnect shaft, and a compressor with a regenerative compressor wheel. The regenerative compressor wheel is fixed to the interconnect shaft and supported for rotation with the turbine about the rotation axis. Additionally, the patent also discusses generator arrangements, unmanned aerial vehicles, and methods of generating electrical power.
The method of generating electrical power outlined in the patent involves receiving ambient air at the power module, supporting the compressor and turbine with a first compressed air portion, compressing a second compressed air portion with the compressor, and communicating the second compressed air portion to the turbine to generate electrical power. Furthermore, the method also includes cooling a permanent magnet generator arranged between the compressor and the turbine with the first compressed air portion from the compressor. This innovative approach to generating electrical power showcases the integration of various components within the power module to optimize efficiency and performance.
