Abstract
A combustor system for use with a turbocharged combustion engine comprises a combustor connected for continuous passage of engine exhaust gases. The combustor system includes a relatively low pressure fuel injection system for atomizing fuel for combustion in a substantially vitiated atmosphere, a fuel control system for supplying fuel to the combustor in response to engine operating conditions, and a heat exchanger for preheating compressed bypass air prior to supply thereof to the combustor.
