So is this motor running off of fuel or is it running off air?
-
I believe the engine shown here is being powered by compressed air. The website mentions that this can be used as an air motor as well as an internal combustion engine. The chainsaw which is made by Quasiturbine Tronçonneuses is pneumatically powered.

je viens de montreal esti pis je me demandais si on pouvais faire un de meme mais 2 litrres pour voir la diff entre les pistons ^pis la QT si la QT est meilleur est possiblement plus econo que les pistons je suis partant vu que je suis machiniste hahhahahah

so this has four chambers? is that more efficient than three? how is the gas compressed? 0.o? im so confused lol

Un moteur efficace est un moteur qui détend tout son gaz, on ne peut pas calculer la puissance en Hp comme un moteur hydraulique! Quand la chambre est pleinne de gaz pressurisé, la pression doit être rejetée à l'atmosphère en pure perte énergétique, au mieux une détente polytropique est souhaitable après une expension isobre comme la QT fait en mode pneumatique ou à vapeur. Une turbine a l'avantage de détendre tout ce gaz mais a d'autres inconvénients... On ne peut parler de haut rendement ici!

who's going to spend $9000 on a 15hp engine to power their home...lame

@mattimber Actually... this demo model is being run on compressed air alone... I don't believe they've actually built an internal combustion version of this engine yet. I could be wrong, but as far as I know, there are only designs for an internal combustion setup. It's a really cool concept though!

yes its skinny but this motor does the job of a 5 times more space and 4 time more weight :D and its from quebec :D:D
is this a compressed air motor ?

Not really, this is an internal combustion engine, similar to a rotary engine, but, yes the gas or liquid fuel must first be compressed before ignition.
