Progress on the engine? |

Hi, I read on your blog about a special star trek engine |
|
utilizing exotic material and waste heat, but this was posted |
|
awhile ago, August 2013. |
|
How does it work? |
|
What is the status? |
|
Is this project dead? |

The engine was completely part by part CAD designed and put out |
|
to bid. Cost is about $9000/per based on building ten. Of |
|
course this cost would be very low if it were mass produced. My |
|
partner was a scammer and he disappeared. |
|
The engine is very similar to a Wankle Engine, but much simpler. |
|
It works off heat or pressure and is ideal for steam, gas let |
|
down, excess air pressure. I have more ideas than money so the |
|
project is shelved. |
|
Maybe someday it can see the light of day. |
|
The engine does promise to pack the most HP per Lb over any |
|
other engine and has only five moving parts. |

Disclosure on the internet is the first part of protecting your |

idea. |

Your engine reminds me of a vane pump. |

|
So this engine works off of pressure not heat? |

|
It can run off both pressure and/or heat. It is more efficient |
|
as a heat engine. One time, when testing at a research facility |
|
the engine was running off steam and as the boiler capacity was |
|
depleted the boiler started priming and the engine continued |
|
running off the hot water. That would have destroyed a |
|
reciprocating piston engine. |

That is a real neat engine design. Brilliant!! Would love to see |
|
one available in plans or kit form. |
