Research abstract
LiquidPiston proposes a 2-5kW heavy-fueled generator based on a novel rotary "X" engine architecture, operating on the High Efficiency Hybrid thermodynamic Cycle (HEHC). In Phase I of the proposed effort, the feasibility of the X-engine based generator will be investigated. A conceptual design will be modeled and assessed against Army requirements, toward a generator configuration to be built in Phase II.
