Plasma Engine, 2800rpm 426.50hp.....??

[csv8]

This engine uses a plasma ball to create mechanical energy.
The ions formed have the same charge, repel from each other, and push the piston down.
Under the "Docs, reading and patents" tab it shows the incredible power stats.
The 1000 cc engine has 800 torque from 10 to 2000K rpm. Flat torque!
At 2800rpm the HP output is 426.50. 2800rpm * 800= 2,240,000/5252=426.50.
As light as it is the two cylinder engine is, it would be way more power than most of us need.

They are selling licenses for manufacturers now. Unlimited license is
"Major manufacturers -- License is $200,000. Application fee is $20,000
- Companies currently making engines or products - expected rate of over 10,000 per Month, per engine type, plus a per engine Royalty. "

Engine only uses a nobel gas, and no fossil fuel. Needs to be recharged in 4-6 months because of leakage. They are working on creating a better seal.

I hear theyre also releasing a motor that runs on pixie dust...

Its called a Commodore.

Very interesting.

No, that runs on wishful thinking. Less power than pixie dust.

Must be the GT-HO V10

Great website, love the picture of the engine at the bottom.

I suppose payment is by way of Western Union.

Quote from the website

"There is no need to recycle electrons from one cylinder to another unless you are looking for a perpetual motion machine"

And we all know about the existence of perpetual motion dont we...

This is really cool. Just need good stereo with backing track of noise from Miami GT

...erm...

"Doesn't use any fuel", and "taking nothing from the atmosphere and putting nothing back in", and "creates no discernible heat"...sorry, but if there's work going on, it needs to be fuelled by something that is consumed and converted to another form. If you have metal working, it will get hotter and hotter unless lubricated and/or cooled by some system.

...sounds awfully like a perpetual motion device to me...sorry, but in this universe you don't get something for nothing...

I love engines that run on nothing and turn farts into fresh air.......

Perpetual motion or energy doesn't exist, impossible, closest thing is fusion. I would love to see a fusion powered car but one car accident could mean the end of the world haha.

Got to put something in to get something out, rules of the universe, sounds like bs to me!

It's funny people are hesitant about running around with dangerous fuel systems, forgetting they are carrying 20-60 litres of highly explosive petrol, in a metal box, right under their rear seat... I don't think a mini fusion reactor would be much more dangerous, it's not like a fission reactor where you are carrying around a load of enriched uranium (aren't we glad we didn't go down THAT path?)

Yeh because fusion can't go boom.......how does a Hydrogen bomb work again.......

I can't see the link from here, will have to check it out when I get home. But are they really saying it runs on nothing? The idea doesn't make much sense to me, but I'd assume, being a "plasma engine" it'd be a concept for an electric engine?

[HULK EF]

wonders if a nigerian King [U]DOESNT have "Too" much money now and has come up with this as another scheme?

Although part of me is optimistic in a major breakthrugh in releasing the shackles on our fossil fuel dependance and has me wondering if all the 1800's bush rangers and dames were laughing a a horse-less carriage and CHANGE -But here we are now....

[GasoLane]

I see they're based in Las Vegas. Don't they say what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas ?

Beam me back up Scotty.

Like most such concepts, it runs on hot air.

Nope...




The idea of a plasma engine is, electicity is used to create a reaction, in which the gas expands, when the charge is removed, it shrinks.

Its not perpetual motion of sorts, as it still needs an electric charge, but the engine can supply the charge its self.

Noble gas engines are starting to gain favor in the world, but the technology is still new, and sketchy.

Keep in mind, for over 2 centuries, the idea of an Internal Combustion engine was constantly worked on, until Otto created what we basically have today...

Technically, yes, but not without the pre-cursor fission explosion to kick-start the fusion process into all its hydrogen-y-ka-boom-y goodness so as far as a nuclear powered car goes you'd be "OK"

I'd be more worried about having 3 heads coming out my left butt cheek than the fission reactor going off!

As for this new Plazma engine thingo, ANYONE asking $200,000, let alone $20 should at least have a website that doesn't look like someone threw a bunch of ideas to Michael J Fox with a CSS style sheet and an etch-a-sketch.

How? The gases are not consumed, so where does the energy to repeatedly generate the plasma come from? For the engine to generate its own plasma AND propel a vehicle, with NO chemical alteration of the fuel source, it is by definition a perpetual motion engine.

Internal combustion is based on sound science. Big difference.
