Re: 6 cylinder radial variable compression engine (new desig

bThe burn gets ultra slow the leaner you go, so that wouldn't produce good torque at higher engine speeds. that's what the hydrogen injection is to compensate for. bill ross, my friend's father, is one of the world's leading experts on electrolysis. if you google the pepsi fleet hydrogen article, t...

Re: 6 cylinder radial variable compression engine (new desig

hi, no problem. i know the engineering "review" of the bourke engine very well. putting it politely, it is total nonsense. i have a copy of the extremely rare "bourke documentary" book, brad howell smith's engine also actually works, i have a friend who has done 30 years research...

Re: 6 cylinder radial variable compression engine (new desig

(Fred, the moderation is a nuisance, I hit "send" by accident when using a phone. Normally I would edit and carry on but obviously cannot do so. Can I leave it with you to merge these messages as I am dealing with other issues?) Message continues: They refused to let him run it at its norm...

Re: 6 cylinder radial variable compression engine (new desig

Oh, btw: if you have a (rare) copy of the Bourke Documentary, you'll know that the "contributors" to the so-called engineering "review" on wikipedia is horse poop. Brad Howell Smith's early prototype which uses the same trilobe cam principle that I am using is independently certi...

Re: 6 cylinder radial variable compression engine (new desig

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-stroke_engine That's the page on 6 stroke engines. Basically 2 of the strokes are a standard *steam* engine, with the water injection flashing to steam and expanding 1,600 times instantly. It also results in cooling and because it used the explosion from the previ...

6 cylinder radial variable compression engine (new design)

Hi folks I am designing a new engine, from scratch. http://lkcl.net/engine - it is effectively a standard 2 stroke however it is six cylinder (double opposed) radial, and it is a variable compression ratio using chain driven TR8 lead screws exactly like on a 3D printer. Clearly, it could be done mec...
