ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a rotary steam engine comprising a peripheral, circular casing with side walls defining an interior cylindrical section wherein a rotor is adapted to rotate therein. The rotor comprises a series of spaced transverse lobes with spring-biased transverse seals at the outer circular periphery thereof, which are adapted to engage the inner circular periphery of the casing. The casing comprises a series of spaced spring-biased transverse vanes adapted to engage the outer periphery, seals and lobes of the rotor. A series of chambers are defined by the seals and lobes, outer periphery of the rotor, the inner periphery of the casing and the side walls. A series of steam inlets and exhaust steam outlets pairs communicate with said chambers as the rotor is rotated by expansion of live steam against the vanes in said chambers.
