Abstract
A gas resonance device (101) comprises a pulsed combustor (102) located in the middle of a substantially spherical resonance chamber (103). Such a thermally driven gas resonance device has the advantage that the wall friction losses are eliminated altogether. A thermally driven gas resonance device (1, 101) may be combined with a pressure swing gas separator (16, 108), the oscillating gas in the gas resonance device (1, 101) being used to provide the pressure changes required to drive the pressure swing gas separator. Alternatively a thermally driven gas resonance device (1, 101) is combined with a heat pump (19, 120) with the oscillating gas in the gas resonance device (1, 101) being used to provide the power to operate the heat pump. The thermally driven gas resonance device (1, 101) may also drive an electrical generator (121, 122) to provide a combined heat and power device.
