Saw this from another list: http://www.angellabsllc.com/ Some kind of wierd rotary-like diesel. Claims 32 power pulses/revolution. Here's an animation: http://www.angellabsllc.com/animation.html Looks wacky and I'm not sure what kind of weird clutch it would need on the crankshaft to deal w/ the stop/start nature of the output shaft but it looks intruiguing. Thoughts? |

That's interesting, but the website seems kind of unprofessional, sort of slapped together somehow. Sounds like a backyard inventor looking for money, which wouldn't be hard to get if your idea worked... There's great theories, then there is great inventions. If he builds a working model that matches up with his theoretical performance, he'll be rich. But he'll need more than a website to get venture capitol. |

Its not a diesel, it doesnt self ignite. |

The audio may be deceptive that way...it's hard to tell whether the thing on the left is a spark or an injector. With a listed 25:1 compression ratio, it's hard to see how it would NOT self-ignite. I'll believe it when I see it, but here's hoping... |

It definitely sounds like it gets whipping around pretty good. |
