Hi Paul,
Have you people seen or discussed the Revetec engine. I just found out
about
it. Very interesting and different.

Cam engines are nothing new. They have a serious mechanical flaw called
line
contact. The principles of this company are either ignorant
or stock scam artist. I suspect the later.

The minute a "new engine" company promotes how it will create carbon
credits....
I'd say 'scam'

I agree. Al Gore has made 50 million bucks off carbon credits so far.
He was so slick he took in the Nobel Peace Prize presenters lock
stock and barrel not to mention the rest of the worlds governments
including our own :)

I say there is an opportunity for us rotorheads to find ways to
"greenize" rotaries and sell carbon credits to fund future
R&D....hummmmm. Sign me up for that one.

Paul, different is a good description, I could see it as a lowspeed deisel
or prefferably a steam engine where it would be a 2 stroke. Twenty years
ago I built some lumber stacking machines with a desmodronic drive driven by
a single hyd motor.It had 1 limit switch and a photoswitch and one two
position hyd valve.Ultimately the lack of any way to add a programable
computer which could do anything but a start/stop button when that was the
new industry trend resulted in ow production. It was however bulletproof and
very low maintenance.My personal favorite of the 27 different stackers I
designed over 30 years.The revtec above could be scalled up to very large
sizes as a steam engine to power electric generators in remote areas with
better heat recovery than the steam turbines.
