ABSTRACT:
An improved apparatus and technique for providing increased efficiency and relatively pollutant free operation of internal combustion engines. An internal combustion engine's gas cycle is refined by forming a secondary balancing non-combusting chamber within the main combustion chamber of each cylinder. The balancing chamber is constructed on a piston surface or within the piston body and operates as a pressure exchange or wave generator during the gas cycle of the internal combustion engine. This permits control of the pressure and temperature within the combustion chamber during the liberation of heat caused by combustion of fuel and air on the power cycle of the engine. The apparatus, the balancing chamber, controls pressure and temperature during this cycle by introducing expansion and compression waves, in the combustion zone during burning of the fuel, that follow one another in sequence without interruption throughout the entire power cycle of each cylinder of the internal combustion engine. The oscillating pressure exchange between the expansion and the compression waves within the combustion chamber during burning of the fuel in each cylinder supplies clean air to support more complete combustion and provides lower combustion temperatures and pressures during operating of the internal combustion engine, thus decreasing the formation of engine exhaust pollutants.
