Hello Yellowjacket, Thermal turbine engage expanding gas to provide drive force. So known as thermodynamics. Kilowatt/Horsepower of both piston...
Hello Yellowjacket, Turbochargers use the force coming off the piston when at exhaust. The heat of combustion is not recycled. Turbines...
Hello Fast Fred, "All this big buck tech , just to steal some power from the exhaust" There be no exhaust heat invoved!, though exhaust or...
Hello baeckmo, Thermodynamics - Royal Navy, NASA and Textbook. Thermodynamics of heating and cooling may provide 100% recycle of driver...

Hello Yellowjacket. Any thermal engine having a Carnot efficiency of 18% is a wonder it even goes. Carnot. The loss of heat. Force. Bar...
Hello Submarine Tom, I beleive it was reply to "you aren't going to gain useful work without a temperature differential" Peter
Hello Yellowjacket "a temperature differential" 30*C to 100*C then back from 100*C to 30*C is a temperature differential of 70*C. Peter
Hello Submarine Tom, I agee a hard call for any person to make. Sealing somebody to their death. CO2 however in place of Steam save people from...
Hello Yellowjacket, "Any engine that has only a 70*C thermal difference isn't going to be efficient at all" Best case scenerio. A Diesel engine...
Hello Yellowjacket, I can appreciate your concerns to safety, petrol and diesel engines both go boom and kill if a leak happens, and a...
Hello Yellowjacket, Thank you for a most interesting reply. Much appreciated. I fully agree if a line ruptures the CO2 escape would be deadly,...
Hello People, Same time back DaS Energy posted on a liquid piston supply of force to a turbine. The piston has now been replaced and is is...
Hello PaR If of help attatched is low pressure CO2 graph. Once above 32* Celsius its more efficient to have the CO2 cool itself...
