Abstract

A high pulse rate ignition system operating at pulse rates in excess of 1 kHz ignites fuel mixtures inside of gas turbine engines. The system comprises drive electronics and a toroidally wound core-coil assembly utilizing ferromagnetic amorphous metal strip as the magnetic media. An inductive storage system is thereby produced which affords rapid voltage rise, high peak currents, rapid charge and discharge cycles that permit the pulse rates to be increased well above conventional ignition sources. With such properties the system can readily drive extremely fouled spark plugs. The electronics and core-coil are manufactured at significantly lower costs than conventional ignition systems. Ignition is substantially instantaneous. The system represents a cost effective replacement for glo-plugs in diesel engines.
