ABSTRACT:
A compound engine including a gas turbine unit and a two-stroke uniflow scavenge piston unit having a hollow cylindrical exhaust valve mounted concentrically with an associated piston to form a portion of the combustion chamber within a peripheral wall of the exhaust valve. A double acting exhaust valve actuator is responsive to rotation of the crankshaft and is operatively coupled to the peripheral wall of the hollow cylindrical exhaust valve to produce forces derived directly from rotation of the crankshaft to open and close the exhaust valve. The actuator is a camshaft having two sets of cams which drive a cam follower in response to rotation of the crankshaft.
