DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING INTERNAL COMBUSTION PLANT WITH INCREASE OF PRESSURE Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC F02C5/11 F02C7/22 F02C9/26 

FIELD: energy.

SUBSTANCE: method of controlling operation of pressure gain combustor comprises: determining a fuel injector duty cycle and a combustion frequency that meets a target load set point and a target fill fraction of combustor; determining a fuel supply pressure setting, a fuel injector timing setting and an ignition timing setting that achieves the determined fuel injector duty cycle and combustion frequency; and sending a fuel supply pressure control signal with fuel supply pressure setting to a fuel pressurising means of combustor, a fuel injector control signal with fuel injector timing setting to a fuel injector of the combustor, and ignition timing control signal with ignition timing setting to an ignition assembly of combustor. Invention also discloses a pressure gain combustor and a controller therefor.

EFFECT: invention makes it possible to control operation of a pressure gain combustor.
