ABSTRACT

It is a simple 4 stroke engine with valve less 5

cylinder, 3 injectors axial combustion engine
This engine has a negligible first order
vibration and is also expected to have low
vibrations in higher order running.
compact in size, And hence reduction in
weight and it is capable of generating heavy
torque.
This 3rd generation engine has the ability to
run on different combustible fuels and
petroleum products at different octane level.
Highly economical and efficiency

 ADVANCE STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT

It is a simple 4 stroke engine with valve less 5

cylinder, 3 injectors axial combustion engine
Its also have 3 inlet and 3 exhaust ports
Pistons are reciprocated axially with the help of
wobble plate
And has a fuel flexibility range of biofuels,
compressed natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas,
suitable mixtures with Methanol/ Ethanol, Hydrogen
etc.
Negligible zero order vibration with compact in size
and reduction in overall weight
 MAJOR TECHNOLOGY BREAKTHROUGHS

It is a simple 4 stroke engine with

valve less 5 cylinder, 3 injectors
axial combustion engine
Since its has no valves it doesn't
require and cam mechanism
hence eliminate 90% vibration in the
overall engine
Produce high torque and high
performance
Wide fuel flexibility
 HUGE WEIGHT AND SIZE SAVINGS
In comparisons made to conventional IC
engine with similar displacement, Duke engine
was found to be up to 19% lighter and up to
36% smaller

HIGH THERMODYNAMIC EFFICIENCY

With only 3 exhaust headers for 5 cylinders
there is a low surface area for heat loss prior
to any catalytic convertor
fuel flexibility range of biofuels, compressed
natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, suitable
mixtures with Methanol/ Ethanol, Hydrogen
etc.

 WORKING OF DUKE ENGINE
It works on basic principle of Wobble-plate.A
wobble-plate is similar to a swash plate, in that
the pistons press down on the plate in
sequence, forcing it to notate around its center
 WORKING OF CYCLES
1-Intake

2-Compression stroke
3-power stroke

4-Exhaust

The piston then rises again ejecting the combustion gases through exhaust port to complete 4 stroke cycle

ADVANCE AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
MARINE
OUT BOARD ENGINE
With exhaust porting on upper face of the
engine which prevent the water entering in
to the engine
Due to lower weight potential it allows to
eliminate transom load
Avoid tighter packing of the engine
Provide smooth of operation
INBOARD ENGINE
In horizontal shaft installation duke engine
offers very low profile and low centre of
gravity and low weight
Due to its compatibility which allow the
engine to install under the deck and
seating without any complexity
Provide smooth and comfort travelling and
high efficiency
AIRCRAFT
Due to its fuel flexibility and zero
order vibration its able to provide
less drag
High economical in the case of
fuel consumption
Due to its counter rotating
cylinder its offers partial
cancellation of gyroscopic torque
reactions
Max power generated at low
speed and out torque rate high
It doesnt need any advanced
and complex gear box
High performance at low noise
MILITARY
AIR & GROUND DRONES
Due to its zero order vibration and
low noise operation its will be well
suited for stealth operations
Due its fuel consumption and fuel
flexibility
High performance and low
maintenance
GENERATORS & PUMPS
Due to its cylindrical package
shape and offers compact and
efficiently packaged overall
machine
Due to its low weight its is easily
transportable by ground and air
manually
And due to its fuel flexibility it can
even run on kerosene
