Transportation is experiencing what’s called a “Quantum Leap in Combustion Engine Technology” with the birth of LiquidPiston.
The rotary engine has not seen any significant innovation in decades and LiquidPiston recently introduced their patented thermodynamic cycle engines. This all seems pretty “techy” for me, but what is interesting to note are the features of these new engines:
- Reduced noise
- Lightweight
- Smaller in size
- Fewer parts (which means less maintenance)
- Multi-fuel capable
- Scalable from 1 HP to 1,000 HP
Technology continues to surprise and delight all areas of our life. I guess it was time for the old rotary engine to get a refresh. You can learn more about this new company here.
