Abstract
A turbine engine has a circumferential array of combustion chamber conduits downstream of the compressor and upstream of the turbine. Means are provided for directing oxygen-containing gas from the compressor to the conduits so as to cyclically feed a gas charge into each conduit through its first port and permit discharge of combustion products of the charge and fuel through both the first and second ports.
