1. In a continuously operating energy release/conversion system, wherein energy is released from fluids comprising fuel and air, wherein said fluids pass in major portion along a main flow path and in a lesser portion through a recirculation zone, the flow from said recirculation zone rejoining said main flow path at a return point proximate the inlet of said main flow path, said recirculation flow flowing along the interior surface of said recirculation zone, said interior surface being characterized by a lack of discontinuities, and said recirculation flow moving in substantially the same direction as said main flow after said recirculation flow exits said recirculation zone and after said main flow passes said return point, resulting in a high intake velocity in said energy release/conversion system, the combination of the structure defining the opening of said inlet of said main flow path with a fuel/air premixing apparatus separate from the beat release region of said energy release/conversion system.
