Interesting...though their numbers on engine efficiency are a bit off. Why doesn't anyone ever do articles on adiabatic engines (which neither create nor absorb heat) or spherical valve engines? Or how about that engine Shelby designed a hew years ago that had something like 3 moving parts (literally) but made over 200hp? Yeah...that one really took off.

ummmm.... interesting but I'm still having a hard time visualizing what he has done so far. The article focused too much on complimenting him rather than explaining how it works more in depth. It appears to me that all he had done is applied the system we use in the Navy called "waste heat" on an internal combustion engine.....

It sounds very interesting to me. Though it wont take off. The oil industry isn't going to allow water to replace oil in combustion motors.

Love the idea, think its probably more work then its worth. Give me a hybrid desiel and I'll be as happy as a pig in shit.
