ABSTRACT
Introduction:The OX2engine has only six major components of which only three are moving
parts and results in low set-up and production costs, and a simplicity of design that
promotes a high level of quality assurance and lower maintenance costs. The OX2
engine's technology can be appropriate from zero to multi-hundred horsepower engines.
Any combustible gas or fluid that could be run in an internal combustion engine can be
run in the OX2.
The OX2 engine does not use a crankshaft, it has been able to achieve a leverage
advantage over a conventional four-stroke engine with a similar stroke. The method used
to achieve this unique efficiency is the subject of the engine's patent. The 0X2 is a 4-
stroke, 1.1-liter internal combustion engine that is 12.8 inches in diameter with a length
of 10 inches and a total weight of 175 pounds in normally aspirated form. The compactengine weighs 75 percent less than and is half the size of traditional internal combustion
engines. The Ox2 has an output of 39 hp at only 1,065 revs.

How it work:* OX2 engine: The cylinder block, drive shaft and piston plates rotate inside the engine
housing. Lobes on the cam plate push the pistons into the cylinder bores, while igniting
the air/fuel mixtures drives the pistons back out and pushes the piston plate rollers along
the cam plate track to keep the engine turning. The engine housing contains two spark
plugs, two intake ports and two exhaust ports. Each cylinder fires twice during eachrevolution.
* Four-stroke Otto engine: Pistons travel up and down in the engine block and are
connected to a crankshaft to convert the vertical motion into rotary motion. Each cylinder
fires once every two revolutions of the crankshaft. Air and fuel enter the cylinder via
ports in the cylinder heads.
* Rotary engine: A rotary engine has no pistons. instead, a triangular shaped rotar spins
inside the engine casing. The points of the rotor contact the walls of the housing to create
chambers for intake/compression; ignition/power strike and exhaust. Each full revolution
of the rotor results in three complete combustion cycles. Rotary engines are compact with
high power output, but also are less fuel efficient and produce high levels of
hydrocarbons.
ENGINE DETAILS
Number of Combustion Chambers 8 Cylinders
System 4 Stroke
Diameter 12.8 inches / 325 mm
Width 10 inches / 254mm
Weight 125 lbs. / 56.8 kilos
Actual Cubic Capacity 66.25 c.i. / 1086 cc
Leverage Advantage 6.6 times a conventional combustion engine
Fuel Any combustible gas or liquid
Combustion:The combustion chambers are only slightly longer than the stroke and pistons
need only to be thick enough to house the rings. The OX2 contains no piston skirts and
the rings are the only contact point with the bore. In effect, at no time do the pistons
touch the bore, and nor are they reliant on it for support. This system eliminates loading
on the sides of the combustion chambers. The AET 30 Kw Variable Speed Propane
Generator exhibited its range of power and performance, though it is an impressive 50percent less in size and weight compared to its commercial generator industry
counterparts. . In addition, it offers the flexibility of being able to run on a variety of
fossil fuels including gasoline, diesel, natural gas, liquid propane or methane. The result
of pre-ignition is resistance against the crankshaft, which causes a loss of energy.

Piston Speed:Further, the OX2 piston speed, which is controlled by the fuel burn rate, remains
constant throughout the entire power stroke. The inlet and exhaust ports do not open until
the exhaust and power strokes respectively have been fully completed.The ports then
remain open long enough to ensure maximum operating efficiency. This process enables
a more regulated mixture to be introduced prior to firing and also allows the significantlyreduced exhaust gases to be expelled efficiently.
Torque:Another unique feature of the OX2 engine is that it achieves considerable torque
at all stages through its operating range. Consequently, in most engine applications there
would be no need for the engine to operate at revs higher than 2,500 rpm. In some
instances, this would eliminate the need for a gearbox and would certainly reduce engine
wear. However, in particular applications, if high engine revs were mandated, the OX2
engine could easily be adapted accordingly. Torque along with 46 horsepower at an
approximate operating speed of 700 RPM.
Single Port:In the OX2 engine, air and fuel are taken in to the combustion chamber through a
single port located in the center of the combustion chamber. This port is adaptable and
could be the size of the chamber if desired. In the OX2, the port is fully opened for the
entire duration of the stroke plus some additional time to allow a full chamber of air and
fuel mixture. There is no valve restricting the air/fuel mixture flow and the chamber is
convex in shape so the cylinder fully charges with maximum efficiency. Since this single
port is also the exhaust port, a heat transfer takes place on intake, cooling the port and
seal, while maximizing fuel vaporization in the one simple process. In addition, exhaust
gases are also recirculated into the combustion chamber on intake, further assisting in the
vaporization of the fuel.

Exhaust:Another aspect of the OX2 engine is designed to have exhaust gases fed back in to
the combustion chamber, ensuring that the engine pressure is only slightly below
atmospheric pressure - eliminating the majority of the vacuum created. The design
ensures that there is no waste of energy fighting vacuum and also allows for optimum
compression regardless of the air/fuel delivery. Thus, more fuel is used driving the pistonand less is wasted pressuring the combustion chamber. Because of the minute pressure
differential, the air/fuel mixture induced in to the cylinder does not drop in temperature.
When the heat of recirculated exhaust gases is added, the fuel remains in a gaseous form,
thus ensuring an efficient burn from the OX2 engine.
Torque:The OX2 develops very high torque at reasonably low RPMs thusly reducingwear and enabling better control of the combustion process thereby resulting in better
economy and emissions.
Flywheel:
A flywheel is an excellent short-term energy storage device, while a flywheel could befitted to the OX2 as with any engine: the mass of the rotating block will act as a flywheel.
Advantages of low RPM:The OX2 develops very high torque at reasonably low RPMs thusly reducing
wear and enabling better control of the combustion process thereby resulting in better
economy and emissions.
why cant a big cylinder can be used instead of 8 small cylinder?
1)The main reason is smoothness because it has eight evenly spaced explosions instead of
one big explosion.
2)Another reason is starting torque. When you start a V-8 engine, you are only driving
two cylinders (1 liter) through their compression strokes, but with one big cylinder you
would have to compress 4 liters instead.
Advantage: Fuel Efficient,Low Emissions, Smaller, Higher Power to Weight Ratio,LightWeight, Multi-Fueled, Inexpensive.

Conclusion:
Thus ox2 engine gives more torque and horse power at smaller rpm itself when
compare to other engines.In addition, it offers the flexibility of being able to run on a
variety of fossil fuels including gasoline, diesel, natural gas, liquid propane or methane.
With its expected higher power-to-weight ratio, multi-fuel capacity and anticipated low
emissions and fuel efficiency, the 0X2 has a practical and much needed application in the
commercial and industrial generator markets.
