Wrong. The Saudis want low oil. When oil is low then the capital investment in energy-saving projects (like the one in the article) is low. The Saudis only stop profiting off oil if there is a game-changing invention which reduces demand.
The inefficiency of power conversion is not in cams and valves, it is in heat. Most, like 80% of the wasted energy is heat, this engine has that loss.
(IIRC) The Top Gear guys did a stunt where they just put a gasoline powered generator in the back of an electric car and used it to power everything without a lot of batteries. Got good mileage up to the point where the exhaust from the generator nearly killed them.
I built an engine a few years back that used two weed eater cylinder / pistons on opposite ends, pushing a cylindrical magnet back and forth through a coil.
It was a two stroke of course. one piston would fire, driving the magnet (through a coil like one of those flashlights that you shake) and the other piston to the other end, where it would file and the process would continue...
It actually ran pretty good.
Explanation is lousy. More information needed on how it works. Burns gasoline. Moves cylinder horizontally. (does it keep going indefinitely or does it move back?) how does horizontal movement turn generator? Generator powers battery? Generator powers electric engine?
How about an explanation that actually tells us how the engine works?
Right, give us all your money...and good luck with that...thermodynamics don't apply to our product...marketing lingo has a proven track record at beating physics, after all...
I’ve been reading about miracle engines for 50 years now. And my 2015 vehicles are still powered by the same internal combustion engine from 50 years ago, albeit, with more emissions controls.
or the OPOC-EcoMotors engine opoc engine how it works
will probably be the next candidate to replace the conventional IC engine. Both are opposed pistons in Cylinder designs.
BUMP!
