ABSTRACT:
A thermodynamic motor comprising a plurality of diagonally opposing pairs of tanks mounted on a rotatable frame, a diaphragm separating each tank into inner and outer chambers, the inner chambers of opposing pairs of tanks interconnected by a conduit, a fluid carried in said inner chambers and conduit, at least one radiator communicating with the outer chamber of each tank, a volatile liquid substantially filling each radiator, the radiator of the lower tank of each pair at least partially immersed in a heated liquid whereby upon volatization of said volatile liquid the vapor pressure distends the diaphragm, forces the fluid from the inner chamber of the lower tank and a corresponding volume to the inner chamber of the opposing tank creating an unbalanced condition which causes rotation of said motor.
