The invention relates to a reciprocating-piston heat engine comprising: a rotary mobile casing (10) provided with two cylinders (11, 12) arranged crosswise in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the casing; and two double-headed pistons (13, 14) installed in the two cylinders, thereby forming four chambers intended to contain a working gas, the engine being such that, during the rotation of the mobile casing, the chambers containing the working gas are positioned alternately in first and second environments which are maintained at different temperatures. |
