shashyazhi:

...The engineer works with compromises to achieve the goals of superior performance and learns to accept the limitations of the physical principles involved.

What looks like an elegant concept often runs right into the brick wall of reality.


I know this all too well. Thank you for phrasing it so concisely.

In respect to your message, you must be an engineer. My question to you is can this engine be used in an application like a weedeater, lawnmower, boat engine, generator, ect. To my understanding only 13 to 15% of engines built each year are car engines. I guess my question to you is can this engine possibly work for these other applications. I also understand that this engine temperature is only about 90 to 120 degrees. This is why the government is so interested in this engine.
I am a boater and it seems that alot of smaller engines are banned from lakes because of the oil mixed and oils released into lakes. In fact if you go to the aeng web page and look at the tour this year, click on OMC web page and read the posting on how the state of CALIFORNIA is banning the sale of 2 stroke outboards in 1999 and by the year 2004 no boats will be allowed in waterways where drinking water sources are.
With 250 million motors built each year, do you see any advantage with an engine like aeng.

Did you get lost in the math at the first???
0X2 fires twice per rev--- 2x 66.25 = 132.5
350 fires four times per rev---- 350 /2 = 175
Therefore we compare similar size engine, based on displacement
per revolution.
