ESE's works engine tuner

[Lightbulb]

I am thinking that the transfers will actually be very low and I think that the exhaust is also lower than normal, possibly around 170 deg or even as low as 150 deg and would think the transfers will be around the 110 to 120 deg mark possibly even down to 90 deg duration if the pressure is high enough in the transfer system. It would be depending on the preset pressure of the reeds to activate.
There is also the possibility of it using a combination of spark ignition and the newer HCCI system after the heat in the system allows the HCCI to work.
That way, there is no problem with getting the ignition to keep up with the higher rpm as it becomes compression ignition.
It is my opinion that the very high compression will allow an otherwise too lean a fuel load to be ignited. That would account for the low emissions when tested.

Frits posted a comment from Harry on here that you all should have seen.
In that he stated that the engine had been tested to 30,000 rpm BUT IT WOULD DO MORE.
So why the negativity about the "crank " mechanism only lasting seconds before self destruction.
Thinking outside the box isnt the issue - this is a whole new shape.

frits i remember reading something about a 2t engine that was tested and power started to go down after 150f water temp if i recall the story correctly. although i dont remember to what temp limit the engine was tested to or even the rate of power loss after 150f. im sure jan did all these same type of tests. did he ever mention what the water temp was when power started to decline and what the rate of decline was ?

In a 50 Hp 125 going from 50 to 60*C losses 2 to 3 Hp.
We run the KZ2 engines as close to 40* as we can, running one of those at 60* will loose near on 1/2sec /lap as we know
from looking at the data log when the driver forgot to pull down the blind in front of the radiator.

Nice new piston for the sleeve engine, arrived last night.

Oops, what have we here? Finally found the camera. Hard chrome tube is 22mm Dia, ( OK it's 7/8" ), 2.1mm wall.
Top end is so secret, I don't even know what it looks like.

That flywheel looks a little light Neil.

Yes yes yes!

Not to mention the tiny wee cylinder. And the piston seems to have a hole in it...

You don't want a heavy flywheel at 30,001 RPM.

you calling it the, "pyramid engine"?

So the flywheel is running at half speed than now

Its something he schemed up

Are you trying to copy my sleek design!?

I guess thats why they call it the block, Hey why not? We can go back and make a pretty one later.
