1 Stroke Engine: Hydrogen powered Breakthrough in Combustion Engine Design.

Join this channel to get access to perks: So INNengine, is a pioneering company in engine technology, and they have developed two groundbreaking concepts: the e-REX and the REX-B. These engines feature the INNengine patented 1Stroke technology, offering significant advantages over traditional 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines. With improved power, efficiency, compactness, and reduced emissions, the INNengine 1Stroke engines are poised to revolutionize engines in various applications, including range extender systems, aviation, power generators, maritime propulsion, and hydrogen applications. So how does it work? Well The INNengine’s 1Stroke Technology is based on a unique design that enables four times more power events per revolution compared to a conventional 4-stroke engine and twice more than a 2-stroke engine. By eliminating the crankshaft, valves, camshaft, and cylinder head, the 1Stroke engine achieves remarkable reductions in size and weight, making it highly compact and lightweight. According to them one of their units will be twice as powerful as a traditional 4 stroke engine whilst being 70% lighter and 55% smaller. The INNengine’s unique 1Stroke engine design combines the efficiency of a 4-stroke engine with the simplicity, compactness, and power of a 2-stroke engine. This innovative engine operates on a system of two identical/reciprocal cam-tracks, which define the engine’s cinematic properties. These cam-tracks project onto a hollow and split main shaft. The engine utilizes an opposed-piston configuration, where two piston groups work in tandem. The linear stroke of the pistons is transformed into rotational movement by interacting with the cam-tracks. This interaction also controls the opening and closing of exhaust ports before intake ports, enabling efficient uniflow scavenging. The INNengine’s design allows for a variable compression ratio without requiring complex double crankshaft solutions. Instead, the shifting device, controlled by the engine control unit (ECU), adjusts the axial position of the inner shaft. This offset angularly modifies the cam-track profile, dictating both the distribution and compression ratio as per demand. Despite having cylinder ports like a 2-stroke engine, the INNengine’s operation is fundamentally different. The combustion chamber of the 1Stroke engine has two combustion events per revolution, which is four times more than a 4-stroke engine and provides double the power of a traditional 2-stroke engine. #internalcombustionengine #Hydrogen #1stroke
