PRESENTATION ON

INTRODUCTION
THE ORIGINAL CONCEPT WAS INTRODUCED IN

YEAR 1990 MODIFY VERSION OF TRIED & PROVEN OTTO CYCLE NO. OF STROKES 4 OR 8 OR 12 OR MORE FRICTION REDUCE BY USING HYDRODYNAMIC LUBRICANT ROTARY TYPE OF I.C.ENGINE

IMPORTANT DESIGN FEATURES

OPERATION IS SAME AS THAT OF I.C.ENGINE NO NEED OF MOVING PART & VALVE TRAIN HARDWARE IS SIMPLE IN GEOMETRY WITH ONLY BALL PISTON & ROTOR ARE MOVING PART MINIMUM SLIDING FRICTION NO NEED OF PISTON RING, PISTON PIN, CONECTING ROD & CRANKSHAFT BEARING CONSTANT VOLUME PROCESS MULTIROTOR CAN BE IMPLEMENTED ON O/P SHAFT 4 OR 8 OR 12 OR MORE STROKE IN A SINGLE REVOLUTION SMOOTH POWER DELIVERY

ENGINE PERFORMANCE AND PREDICTIONS

SIMULATION MODEL:- MULTI-ENERGY DOMAIN ENGINE SIMULATION

MODEL LEAKAGE MODEL BASED ON SIMPLE ORIFICE FLOW LEAKAGE AT STATOR/ROTOR IS ZERO WORKING GAS FOLLOWS IDEAL GAS LAW STEADY STATE HEAT TRANSFER PROCESS AT CONSTANT ROTATION RATE AND ENGINE LOAD

DIFFERENCE

SIMPLE IN DESIGN AS LOW MOVING PART HIGH POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO NO NEED OF VALVE TRAIN HIGH EFFI. THAN CONVECTIONAL 4, 8, 12 OR MORE NUMBERS OF STROKES CAN BE ACHIVED NO NEED OF PISTON RING , PISTON PIN, CONNECTING ROD & CRANKSHAFT BEARING, SO REDUCE SLIDING FRICTION , INCREASE O/P

COMPLEX IN DESIGN AS

LARGE MOVING PART LOW POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO VALVE TRAIN IS NEEDED LOW EFFI. 2 OR 4 NUMBER OF STROKES CAN BE ACHIVED SLIDING FRICTION IS OCCURED BETWEEN PISTON PIN, PISTON RING, CONNECTING ROD & CRANKSHAFT BEARING, SO THAT REDUCES POWER O/P

Power comparison of ball piston and

conventional engines

Material selection
Silicon nitride ball with lubrication necessarily.

Alumina ball in M2 tool sleeve viable for use in

compressor, pump and motor applications.

Chrome steel

ADVANTAGES OF ROTARY BALL PISTON ENGINE

Small number of moving parts.
It has ability to complete any even numbers of strokes

per revolution in single rotation of rotor. This effectively multiplies the power output proportionally if stroke is maintain constant. The frictional losses are low and independent of operating speed in contrast to conventional piston engine.

DISADVANTAGES OF ROTARY BALL PISTON ENGINE

Leakage through the ball piston/cylinder gap is a

significant factor for engine efficiency at low speed.

Flow is choked during combustion due to high

pressure differential and small clearance area.

The friction and wear at the ball piston/cylinder wall

sliding interface.

CONCLUSION
ANALYSIS SHOW THAT THE BALL PISTON ENGINE HAS POTENTIAL FOR ACHIEVING HIGHER EFFI. THAN PISTON I.C. ENGINE TEST HAVE SHOWN THAT CRITICAL LEAKAGE & FRICTION CHARACTERISTICS ARE CONSISTENT THIS KINEMATIC DESIGN DEVICES TO ELIMINATE FRICTION CONTRIBUTION FROM INERTIA FORCES THE CONVECTIONAL CARBURETION/ INDUCTION & EXHAUST SYSTEMS ARE APPLICABLE TO NEW ENGINE THE PRECISE MANUFACTURING ARE NEED FOR PRODUCTION OF

MATERIAL

THE NEW DESIGN CONCEPT CAN BE IMMEDIATELY APPLIED TO COMPRESSOR & PUMP IN PARALLEL WITH FURTHER ENGINE DEVELOPMENT
