Why The IC engine has to be Redesigned?
To Increase the Thermal efficiency.
To Reduce Pollution.
To Reduce the Fuel consumption.
ALTERNATIVE IC ENGINE DESIGNS
Stirling Engine
OPOC cylinder Engine
Scuderi Engine
Free Piston Engine
STIRLING ENGINE
STIRLING ENGINE
Scottish Inventor Robert Stirling conceived this Engine.
The heat source is external to engine.
Pair of pistons operate together.
Stirling engines are used for stationary applications.
Constant speed operation and low noise are the advantages.
OPOC ENGINE
OPOC ENGINE
It means opposed-piston opposed-cylinder engine.
It is discovered by Company called Ecomotors.
High power density and fuel efficiency improvements over 50 percent
over current SI engine.
It can work on variety of fuels such as Gasoline,Diesel and Biofuels.
Reduces Fuel consumption.
SCUDERI ENGINE
SCUDERI ENGINE
It has split cycle that is there are two cylinders.
One cylinder for intake and compression and other cylinder for power
and exhaust.
Each engine module has two cylinders and pistons tied together to
the crankshaft.
Because only air is being squeezed into the first cylinder, it has 75:1
compression ratio.
Improves overall thermodynamic efficiency.
FREE PISTON ENGINE
FREE PISTON ENGINE
It is similar to OPOC engine.
The pistons are attached to each end of connecting rod.
It has lower friction than conventional engine and has reduced rotary
motion.
It can have 50 percent thermodynamic efficiency.
It cannot be used as a regular engine because it has reduced rotary
motion.
Vibration free.
