Hello all, still building stuff and found the real Richard Clem so-called cooking oil car in a old TV video in 1970-1972.
I now believe he created a hybrid gas/hydraulic drive system from the video. I could never get more energy out then the hydraulic pump allowed with rim jet thrust.
I almost finish with a hydraulic combustion turbine engine running on propane. This is based on years of research of the Clem engine and other fluid turbine designs.
I can say this could reach 45-50% efficient on a generator1-5kw power system.
Hey, can you tell us just what the 1977 Ford F250 in the offered video adds to this discussion?
Anyone who may have a look at your (now abandoned, must have forgotten password?) past interactions with the CR4 crowd, be aware that all of the Tommey provided videos (that I checked, anyway) have been removed from YouToob.
Ya know what, buddy… I am at a loss here, don’t know what to say after going through you previous discussion threads.
It very much appears that you are still are using the (paraphrased here) “Experimenting is always better than bothering with the math” method of gathering results.
And this is now capable (might be, I think you said) of driving up to five whole kilowatt generator?
This is the first air/propane hydraulic combustion turbine engine/generator.
This is not the Clem engine, but from all of the experiments using propane as a combustion power hydraulic ram pump to generate extreme fluid pressure for the rim jet thrust to rotate a permanent magnet generator 600-900 rpms.
testing the output at low pressure reaching 2,200 rpms.
