Parallel 4-Strokes

Some fellows asked if the Relative-Motion Cylinder operates in a two-stroke model, and the answer is no, nor its air management needs to depend on turbo-charging or supercharging to provide compressed air to the combustion compartment.

The main difference in our Relative-Motion Cylinder is, partly, separating the compression stroke to another space, located outside the combustion space where a partly compressed air provided by a claimed “control mechanism” 

In a conventional cylinder, we have two cycles, operate in sequence, where the cylinder performs a suction and compression in one cycle, then in sequence, performs a combustion and exhaust as another cycle. When one stroke takes for example 11 milliseconds, the the four strokes will need about 44 milliseconds for the four strokes to complete.

In a Relative-Motion cylinder, a dedicated space above the floating piston,  performs a cycle of suction and partial compression, and the Relative-Motion cylinder, within the combustion space, completes the compression and then combustion in the same cycle.
