ABSTRACT:
A method of converting heat energy into mechanical energy in which two substantially symmetrical, cylindrical chambers are secured together and rotated about a common central axis with a liquid being maintained against the outer wall of either chamber by centrifugal force. A plurality of turbine type blades are secured to a shaft for rotation about the same axis as the chambers but independently thereof and in alignment with openings in both chambers. With a liquid being maintained in one chamber, a fuel mixture is injected into that chamber and ignited so as to expel the liquid against the blades to cause rotation thereof. The blades are shaped so that the expelled liquid will be directed into the corresponding opening in the other chamber and the gases in the first chamber are then expelled and the sequence repeated in the opposite direction, from the second mentioned chamber to the first.
