The Gluhareff pressure jet operates three acoustically tuned input stages which accelerate and direct air into the combustion chamber where it heats the fuel pressure coil. Having no moving parts, the engine works by having a coiled pipe in the combustion chamber that superheats the fuel ( propane ) before being injected into the air-fuel inlet.
The jet uses the Citation II's forward fuselage, a new carry-through section, a new laminar flow, supercritical wing developed with NASA and Boeing, and a T-tail. Powered by two 1,900 lbf (8.5 kN) Williams FJ44s, the 10,000 lb (4,500 kg) aircraft has a trailing link undercarriage for smooth landings, and can be flown by a single pilot. Range is ...
