You are correct in your assessment that the water will probably need to be treated. It will also require filtering and periodic replacement. To what extent these requirements will need carrying out can only be guessed at until a prototype is in operation.
Since the combustion process is...
danberry,
Your understanding of engine dynamics is very refreshing.
The very reason I inject water spray after the stoichiometric combustion process is to extract the very highest combustion efficiency possible. In this case the overall combustion/steam process is 45 percent efficient. By...
Hacksaw,
can you refer me to a particular reference material that provides formulas for doing the calculations you cited in your response.
Your observations are much appreciated, however, 10 linier inches (110 cubic inches) of the cylinder is dedicated strictly to the stoichemetric...
I have been working for many years on a true rotary engine project that will use injected water at 1500-psi and 263-F to cool super-hot combustion gas down to an intermediate temperature level of 1400-F. (combustion at all operating speeds is stoicheometric, approaching 4000-F). This commingled...
