Technical field

Following disclosure relates generally to engine, pump and similar devices, and more particularly relates to internal-combustion engine.

Background technique

The efficient of internal-combustion engine is expressed according to the thermal efficiency usually, and it is converted to measuring of mechanokinetic ability for engine with fuel energy.Conventional internal-combustion engine with reciprocating piston has the relatively low thermal efficiency usually.For instance, conventional car engine has the thermal efficiency of about .25 usually, this means that during engine operation about 75% fuel energy is wasted.In particular, about 40% fuel energy is as loss heat flow exhaust pipe, and other 35% system's (that is, freezing mixture, oil and air-flow on every side) that is cooled absorbs.Because the cause of these losses, only about 25% fuel energy is converted to usable power, is used to drive automobile and operation level two (for example, charging system, cooling system, power steering system etc.).

Conventional internal-combustion engine poor efficiency like this has many reasons.A reason is that the cylinder head of firing chamber and wall absorb heat energy and not work done from the fuel of lighting.Another reason is that the fuel supply of lighting was only partly expanded before being sucked out the firing chamber under relative higher temperature and the pressure during the exhaust stroke.Another reason is that because the cause of the geometrical relationship between the crankshaft of reciprocating piston and rotation, the reciprocating piston engine only produces few torque in many stroke of piston.

Improve though made some in the piston engines technical field, as if reached the practical limit of piston engines efficient.For instance, in the past about 20 years, the average fuel economy of new automobile has only increased by 2.3 miles per gallons (mpg).More particularly, the average fuel economy of new automobile only is increased to 28.9mpg in 2002 from the 26.6mpg of nineteen eighty-two.

Although proposed the many replacement schemes to conventional internal-combustion engine, every kind of replacement scheme all only provides trickle improvement.For instance, hybrid locomotive (for example, Toyota Prius) and alternative fuel system (for example, propane, rock gas and biofuel) still use the conventional reciprocating piston engine with all attendant disadvantages.On the other hand, electric car is limited in scope and recharges slower.Hydrogen fuel cell is another replacement scheme, but the enforcement of this newborn technology is relatively expensive, and needs new fuel distribution basis structure to replace existing fondational structure based on oil.Therefore, wish to obtain utilizing though each in these technology all has in the future, they will be realized that market is popularized and as if also take much years.
