Ramgen Power Systems

Ramgen Power Systems, LLC ("Ramgen") is a privately-held research and development company, focused on unique energy-related applications of supersonic aircraft technology. Supersonic aircraft engines use the effect shock waves generated by the speed of the incoming air, acting on their ramp-like engine inlet systems, to produce high levels of compr... ession at exceptionally high efficiencies. These systems have been refined and proven in countless flight applications over the last 50 years. Ramgen's primary innovation is the application of these supersonic flight inlet concepts and methods to ground-based air and gas compression applications. As is the case with many breakthrough technologies, Ramgen's key advancements have occurred in the void that exists between those who practice aircraft & aerospace vehicle design and those who design turbomachinery; two communities that rarely interact. In addition, Ramgen is also developing analogous supersonic planar expansion nozzle and unique high velocity combustor technologies. These technologies can have stand alone markets as products themselves, used as components in other products, and when combined, they comprise the principal components of a gas turbine engine. Ramgen's technologies and know-how are being applied toward three commercial applications: 1. CO 2 Compressor for large-scale Carbon Capture & Storage Systems 2. High stability, low-emissions dry low NOx Gas Turbine Combustor 3. An Advanced Supersonic Component Engine (ASCE) for Military, Industrial & Marine Power Generation applications The Ramgen advanced CORead More
