UMotor - Over-Expanded Engine

Internal combustion engines suffer from fairly low efficiency (internal thermal losses and wasted hot exhaust enthalpy). Small-scale engines' surface area/volume ratio combustion chamber leads to higher heat transfer losses and inefficient combustion. Furthermore, the market for micro combined heat and power (micro-CHP) system has solutions with high ratios of heat/electricity (4:1, 3:1, 2:1),

Unusual State Alarm and Recovery Director

Unusual State Alarm and Recovery Director

inexpensive stall warning device based upon known aerodynamic performance of airplane, balancing G-forces against force proportional to dynamic pressure. The basis for this idea evolved early (US 1,885,578 and 504,062).

Such an instrument may be an airtight case having upper and lower halves,

Use Of Kinetic Energy Of A Wheel In Motion To Run A Supercharger

A conventional supercharger is installed near the engine either above the cylinder block or in front of the engine. One of the problems of the installation of a supercharger at such a place is that as the engine gets heated to high temperature, the supercharger also gets overheated.
