ANALYTICS OF PROCESSES OCCURRING IN THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER OF AN UNCONVENTIONAL HEAT ENGINE (ENGINE) UNDER FULL LOAD CONDITIONS
Abstract
Based on the analysis of the conditions for the implementation of the working cycle in thecombustion chamber of a heat engine (internal combustion engine) of a new scheme, the article
proposes a comprehensive analytical description of the processes that make up its working cycle.
Briefly analyzed are the basic structural schemes of new heat engines with a mechanism for converting the reciprocating motion of their pistons into a rotational cargo shaft. Based on the equations of thermodynamics, mechanics, and the theory of internal combustion engines using the
Heaviside step function, a system of equations is formed that describes the nature of the flow of
parameters and cycle indicators under conditions of using a heat engine at full (and close to) load
conditions. In relation to a specific scheme of a crankless piston machine (engine), examples of
numerical evaluation of the parameters and indicators of the duty cycle of such a heat engine are
given. It is shown that under similar conditions for the implementation of the duty cycle in a
crankless piston machine (engine) and an engine with a crank mechanism, in a crankless engine
(with a two-period treadmill), the same power value is realized at rotational speeds two times
lower than in internal engines combustion with a crank mechanism. A recommendation is made
about the possibility and expediency of using crankless piston machines-engines as sources of
mechanical energy.
