MYT Engine "Mighty Yet Tiny" This is incredible..

[Enemy]

If this is for real, why am I just hearing about it NOW, instead of after the 2006 LA Auto show?
 
This guy has to be already dead if this motor is the real deal...gawldamn oil cumpanies....

Either way, that is an interesting design....





If am living under a rock, and missed this stuff along time ago, I appologize

Lol, last i heard of that engine was back in 06. There was a small thread on mbn about it. anyways, I don't think it was a viable engine because of how complex it is, and how hard it would be to seal the engine. Cool design though.

Thinking it over again, I wonder how much strain those pistons can take without shearing off?

sheer of from what?

[trojan]

I'd like to see the results of the "Fuel Tests" they had yet to conduct.

before they shear off at the base due to the strain of the explosion. From what I've heard, no actual power production tests have been done with fuel. Hell, I can easily make something that uses compressed air to make power.

Exactly, they have a lot of leverage on the attaching point. Also, sealing that thing would be 8X worse than a rotory.....

Point 1 and point 2 exactly. I wonder what they used for rings?

[Nutz4sand]

I will believe this engine will even run when they show it moving a car. Then tear it apart in front of me to prove they did not just stuff a Wankel in there. (due to the fact that the outside sorta of resembles one.) 

I believe it will run. ANY air pump can be made into a motor. But not for long! First I see it getting SO hot it will melt. HUGE flame heat to both sides of a piston? They BARELY survive NOW with oil cooling the backside (fourstroke) and the massive cool air/gas/oil moving past the backside of the two stroke piston. Now they think its gonna take heat from BOTH sides? What the hell is in thier bong? 

To top that off how are you gonna lube those rings? This motor would run so frigging dirty with all the oil that would have to be in the fuel mix.
The greenies aint gonna let that fly!

Then the real kicker. High RPM? HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

We can hang a light piston on a light conrod and turn some RPMS.

But that creation starts and stops EIGHT pistons. The HUGE rings that connect each four of them together AND the HUGE arms out the one end that control the pistons on thier mounting discs starting and stopping?

The thing was shaking like a porn viberator going for a "Woody" award at only 1400 rpm! 


I aint buying it. As mentioned above I will have to see if perfrom in a car. Then see it tore apart in front of me to show me these same guts doing the work. 

I say B.S. I would like to be proved wrong but I aint thinking its gonna happen! Above is just a few thing that jump right out and say no way to me.

not a combustion test. it is an air test at 150psi. looks like alot of oil or something foggin the air?

[fabr]

An AIR test? WTF??

[Engineer]

OMG don't get me started.  This is like the "Air Car" they did a big special on the discovery channel or somewhere.  This air car is awsome the only emisions is cool clean air.......  It runs on compressed air.  Yeehaw.  Just plug it in and fill the tanks.  Somehow they omitted the fact that you need a coal or nuclear power plant to make the electricity to run the compressor to compress the air.  Environmentalist idiots!  But they did mention that they were working on an onboad compressor so it can make its own compressed air??  WTF!  It uses it's own compressed air to drive and to make more compressed air..........  These guys truely are genius.....  And they allow this shit on TV as realistic.


Actually I think this is how they should use windpower.  Let the windmills compress air, or distill hydrogen to later be used as fuel.  Make something that can be stored, instead of electricity that must be used instantaneousely.

[SPEC]

E-Farmer,
That is an interesting thought

[Voodoochikin04]

well i dont think the air test was to show it can be run on compressed air.. i think it was to show that it can function and its moving parts all work like they are supposed to? idk.

I was under the impression that they are showing that ONE cylinder under 50psi can make this motor run, in turn demonstrating how efficient the engine is AND how well it is sealed.. That's what I got out of it..

I agree though, I want to see fuel put to it, and then torn down to prove it is the real deal..
