<HTML>Well, Gentlemen,
How do you like an Idea of 2 stroke flash steam engine?
Presuming that we have U.S.S. (ultra short stroke) engine with 2 valves (intake and exhaust) in the oposite sides of cylinder and hot watter injector in the centre of the engine head.
We supose that we fill in the air in one part of cylinder volume, say, 60 %, than we compress air and than we inject hot watter into heated and compressed air in piston top position. Hot watter flash into hot air, giving qvick expansion, so we expand this mixture of hot air and steam to all volume and export it through exhaust valve than expansion is finished.
Than we open intake valve and let air in. Coming air must throw out remains of steam an air, so we have this proces done and lock first exhaust and than intake valve. In this moment we have piston allready in allmost medium position in cylinder, so we have bigger expansion chamber than compression chamber.
You can call it "Ruzic steam cycle" if you like the name, but, first of all I am interested to hear your comments.
Best regards,
