An independent radial vane rotary machine for the production of rotary mechanical power through internal combustion of liquid or gaseous fuel and employing intermeshed gearing for synchronization of major rotational components. The machine functions in general accordance with the principles of the Carnot heat engine cycle but mechanical manipulation of working fluid is accomplished without reciprocating mechanical components and combustion is performed as a continuously sustained process. The machine offers vibration-free operation and good measures of functional efficiency, power density, and inherent reliability. The disclosure presents the geometric and mechanical features necessary to demonstrate functional viability.
