Abstract

The “turbojet powered automobile” of this invention is actually powered by an electric motor for locomotion. The electric motor in this automobile provides a much superior acceleration response and smoother cruising control than can be obtained from a turbojet engine directly. The turbojet engine runs an electric generator that powers a battery pack and the electric motor. This automobile is designed to balance the weight load of the turbojet engine located at the back end of the vehicle with the electric motor, battery pack, and transmission located at the front end of the automobile. The turbojet engine in this automobile can be fueled by ordinary jet fuel, kerosene, diesel, or solid aluminum fuels that have recently been developed. Consequently, this turbojet automobile can be environment friendly, economical, and a lot of fun to drive.
