<p>An internal combustion and internally cooled steam engine (10) and powering method to be used to more efficiently and effectively power steam turbines and like drive sources. The steam engine (10) includes an insulated pressure chamber (20) having a boiler concentrically located therein, and a combustion chamber (40) concentrically positioned within the boiler (30), into which fuel and air pass, through inlet conduits (44), and are ignited to form hot gases, thereby heating water within the boiler (30) such that steam emerges from the boiler (30) through a plurality of apertures in the boiler and mixes with the hot gases. The gases emerge into the pressure chamber through at least one flue gas line connected to the combusiton chamber (40), and extending into the pressure chamber (20). The flue gas line includes a plurality of holes therein to enable the hot gases to escape and mix with the steam, thereby super heating the steam for subsequent driving of a steam turbine connected to the pressure chamber (20), and having a filter to remove sulfur oxides positioned therebetween.</p> |
