Aircraft having a heat engine and device for using the exhaust gases from the heat engine
The present invention relates to an aircraft having at least one wing, on which at least one propulsion unit is arranged, comprising at least one heat engine, especially a gas turbine, as well as an exhaust gas passage for conducting exhaust gas of the heat engine into and inside the wing.
1. An aircraft having at least one wing, on which at least one propulsion unit is arranged, comprising at least one heat engine configured as a gas turbine, as well as an exhaust gas passage for conducting exhaust gas of the at least one heat engine into and inside the at least one wing,
wherein there is arranged in the exhaust gas passage, downstream from the at least one heat engine:
at least one heat exchanger configured as an evaporator,
at least one condenser,
at least one water separator, and/or
at least one turbine,
wherein there is arranged in a fluid passage, downstream from the at least one condenser and/or the at least one water separator:
at least one water pump,
at least one water treatment device,
at least one water accumulator,
at least one heat exchanger, and/or
at least one steam turbine, and/or
at least one outlet of the fluid passage is arranged at the at least one heat engine at a combustion chamber and/or a turbine stage of the gas turbine.
2. The aircraft according to claim 1 , wherein the exhaust gas passage is arranged at least partially
in a pylon, which connects the at least one propulsion unit to the at least one wing, and/or
a torsion box and/or a leading edge region of the at least one wing, and/or,
in front of a torsion box and leading edge of the at least one wing and/or at the side next to a cargo compartment, in a fuselage of the aircraft.
3. The aircraft according to claim 1 , further comprising:
at least one delivery device for cooling a condenser arranged
at least partially in the at least one propulsion unit,
at least partially in a pylon,
at least partially in the torsion box of the at least one wing,
at least partially in a fuselage of the aircraft or at least partially in a housing situated at a side on the fuselage and/or above the at least one wing.
