<p>A combustion engine, which is highly efficient, noiseless and lightweight, includes a combustion chamber without pistons. The combusted and expanded air exiting the combustion chamber flows into a displacement pump, such as a gear pump or radial vane pump. The displacement pump drives the load, and, in addition, another smaller displacement pump, which pressurizes fresh air and introduces same, via a feedback loop, into the combustion chamber. Gas or other burnable fuels are introduced in the combustion chamber, so that a continuous fuel burning will occur, after being ignited. The ratio of bigger to the smaller pump is influenced by the percentage of expansion of the air in the combustion chamber. Additional features could be implemented for optimization of performance of the combustion chamber, such as: spring loaded adjustable baffles within the chamber to create desired compression, meandering walls and protrusions in the feedback loop, and heating the air in the smaller pump prior to entry into the feedback loop.</p> |
