Mon, 24 October 2005 10:20 Shraka wrote on Mon, 24 October 2005 12:18 It's interesting, but it's just a petrol engine. We need to move into something better than petrol. If it could run on hydrogen (as mentioned) that might be a thought. I think to run on hydrogen, it's probably better to have a full aluminium construction and/or ceramic coated, which seems to be so easy for such engine... Quote: In the test video, what A/F ratio is it running at? I think the original engine was claimed to run at around 50:1, but recent Vaux Engine (same engine, renamed with some small changes) are being tested at 20:1, but I can't recall where I got that info from as it's been a while since I've last read it Quote: 20.7kw at 4000rpm from 500ccs isn't that impressive, and that's assuming you can trust their reported power. yeah, in the year 2005, it's starting to become very common, but at that time in the year 1930s, I think it's at least 4x better than the nearest competitor, it was never given a fair go and if we had spent 70 years researching and developing the engine, things may be different, but if the claims are true, #1 The 500cc engine may still be 2-4 times more efficient than current engines, and #2, this design may be very useful for a small (~100cc) and maintainance free engine, for remote rural power generation etc. Quote: I wanna see that prototypes A/F ratio curve, torque curve and power curve on a dyno graph. That would be a very good idea to request such thing from these researchers, but how are we going to measure the A/F ratio? Coz currently we use a delta sensor right? Do they go further than 18:1?
