Unique Features

Combustion Chamber Volume vs. Shaft Rotation

• Predicted increase in efficiency from the air standard model
• Higher pressures during the expansion process

Unique Combustion Chamber and Combustion Process

• Working volume is divided into two separate volumes
• Fuel is injected into the leading volume
• Air is forced from the trailing volume into the leading volume creating high turbulence and improved mixing
• Improved combustion and emissions performance
• Combustion pressure forces applied as direct torque to output shaft
• No reciprocating-to-rotary or orbiting mechanism required; strictly rotational operation
• Eliminates inefficiencies associated with friction due to thrust loading of the pistons
• Provides a much improved vibration characteristic

Configured as either shaft-horizontal or shaft-vertical

• Increased latitude in design of the downstream power transmission components
• Provides broader packaging options

Simple components geometry

• Most shapes are extruded profiles or surfaces of revolution
• Allows application of advanced materials
• Ceramics
• Composites
• Coatings
