OT - Six stroke engine
Inside Bruce Crower’s Six-Stroke Engine:
http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dl...THISWEEKSISSUE [...] “I’ve been trying to think how to capture radiator losses for over 30 years,” explains the veteran camshaft grinder and race engine builder. “One morning about 18 months ago I woke up, like from a dream, and I knew immediately that I had the answer.” [...] Basically, his engine injects water into the cylinder after the normal exhaust strike, which adds another steam power stroke and exhaust stroke, as well as cooling the cylinder. This apparently eliminates the need for an external cooling system and uses some of the heat energy that would otherwise be lost through the radiator. Thoughts? Would this present a corrosion issue? Does it sound worthwhile? R, Tom Q. |
