"Relative-Motion” Racing Engine Design
Increased speed limits at “half the operating engine speed”,
New racing rules, limit the amount of fuel carried in a racing vehicle, the fuel flow rate per hour, and the higher limits of RPM.
The Relative Motion proposal can provide an answer to these requirements without sacrificing previous KW output.
Limiting the fuel flow requires decreasing the cylinder volume, and the Relative Cylinder provides that, by decreasing the total replenishment volume of the stroke, but with preserving the bore size of the crankshaft piston.
example, conventional 100 mm bore cylinder with 100 mm stroke, means the replenishment or displacement volume equals 1000 cc3 that requires x gram of fuel per stroke.
With the Relative-Motion setup, with two pistons driven by combustion at the same direction, we can have a main crank-shaft piston of 100 mm bore, with its displacement equals 1000 cc3, yet the replenishment fluid is required to fill in, is only about 600 cc3 requiring less fuel flow per stroke.
The second piston, acting as an occupying structure, allows the four-strokes to complete in two room spaces, where the timing of stroke is a two-stroke model, while the lubrication, breathing and fueling model is a four stroke one. Such arrangement can easily overcome limiting the allowed high RPM limits.
Due to higher torque output, to run at wheel speeds of 100 miles/hour, our pistons within our Relative Motion Engine “would move at half the piston reciprocating speed” of a Conventional Engine.
This means that our Relative Motion Engine, would enjoy higher ratios of compressed air to achieve a better per stroke power output; obtain better fuel burning.
Relative Motion Engine has Lower RPM/Performance ratio
It is known for Conventional engine that at about 6000 RPM, pistons start to suffer mechanical challenges, like broken bearings or joints, with serious power loss from piston friction and inertia.
· To achieve that same wheel speed and work effort, our Relative Motion pistons would be running at about 3000 RPM for similar performance, as the functions of combustion and compression, are done in separate compartments.
Relative Motion Engine cylinder has Lesser thermal challenges compared to the Conventional Engine
· Because our design and method split its compressed fluid into two parts, one for combustion, and one for decompression. This feature not only enhances performance and thermal limits, but also helps to reduce additional accidental mishaps seen at the race tracks. The drivers at race tracks would love it.
