Two-stroke engines have always been popular with those who wish to get a truly small-sized motor with high power, a small number of details and the least energy costs for each beat. Naturally, the wealth of blue smoke from the exhaust pipe did not at all suit the environmental inspectorate, and evenly these engines have finished being used in vehicles. But now they are fraught with new design and new technologies.
Ecomotors has developed a design under the title of OPOC (Opposed Piston Opposed Cylinder), T. e. applied opposition placement of cylinders and pistons. As can be seen from the proposed drawing with 2 cylinders and 4 pistons, the new design is absolutely corresponding to its own name. Peter Hofbauer began to promote this idea during his own work on Volkswagen. Tender pistons came to replace the cylinder heads here, any of which performs half the course necessary for a complete tact, which increases the speed of the motor. The turbocharger system with electronic control can be used as necessary (acceleration can be adjusted). Apart from that, it can be turned on even before the engine starts, which gives additional power.
You can add modules to the engine in the form of additional pairs of cylinders with a coil of the priority of their work. For example, one pair can be turned on at the start and at low speeds, and then, if necessary, turn on the other cylinders.
According to designers, the release into the atmosphere will not go beyond the ecological standards of EPA, installed for gasoline and diesel engines.
The fuel consumption with an automatic box will be 43 km/l, so you can imagine that you can do on this bike. Super!
In principle, such a design cannot be called a novelty, but as we have already read the articles at first, it will help Zhanoy look at old concepts, providing them with more power and less harm to the environment. Computerized injector, electronic turbocharged, module switching system – all this takes an old idea to a new level, creating the latest generation engine based on an old design. Cool, in a word!
