The world of automotive engineering is filled with innovation and experimentation, leading to some rather unusual engine designs that made it to production, albeit briefly. These engines often broke ...

The Napier Deltic, a triangular diesel engine with 38 pistons, powered British trains and naval vessels with unmatched efficiency and a unique design.

In this video, I take on an exciting engineering challenge: combining two internal combustion engines into a single opposed-piston engine. This unique project improves balance, reduces vibrations, and ...

I love weird engines—give me a rotary, a turbine, or, hell, even a flat-eight and I’ll be happy. That’s why I was so excited when I heard that INNengine of Granada, Spain had produced a opposed-piston ...

Argonne, which is partnering with Achates Power to develop a hydrogen-powered engine, recently began testing the engine in Argonne’s state-of-the-art facilities. In a groundbreaking demonstration, ...

DETROIT –While Tesla, General Motors, Nissan, BMW and other automakers doggedly push to bring battery-powered vehicles into the mainstream, Achates Power engineers are betting that an old technology ...

Ferrari continues to explore hydrogen-powered drivetrain solutions, patent documents discovered by AutoGuide.com indicate Ferrari is looking at a two-stroke 3- or 6-cylinder opposed piston engine ...

The Nature Index 2024 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

Bore and Stroke: 127 mm (5 in.) x 102 mm (4 in.) Once the largest independent manufacturer of automotive engines, Detroit’s Continental Motors Corporation purchased the rights to a single-sleeve valve ...

Free-piston engine generators and linear machines represent an innovative departure from conventional rotary systems, offering high thermal efficiency and operational flexibility by eliminating the ...
