IMPULSE PLASMA ELECTRIC JET ENGINE Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F03H1/00 

FIELD: engines and pumps.

SUBSTANCE: engine consists of anode and cathode with discharge gap in the form of working surface from dielectric, which contacts with source of liquid or gel-like working fluid supply. Working surface is arranged as movable, in the form of two rotary disks, and in zone between anode installed on slave disk and cathode installed on master disk 9, intermediate electrode is inserted, as well as source of liquid or gel-like working fluid supply. Movable working surface of disks is arranged in the form of tray (groove), with indent of which working fluid source contacts, representing porous-capillary elastic wick. Working fluid used is liquid-phase dielectric with low value of saturated vapors pressure, for instance, vacuum oil, and working surface is made of dielectric material wetted with working fluid of dielectric material, for instance, ceramics or caprolon.

EFFECT: exclusion of engine forced idle periods and increased efficiency factor of electric jet engine due to optimisation of plasma spray angles by means of their adjustment by design elements of electric jet engine without classical facilities of plasma optics.
