Simulation of the Free Piston’s Movement from the Single Regime Running Thermo-Hydraulic Generator
The paper presents the research results regarding the determination of the calculus relations necessary to simulate the free piston’s movement from the single regime thermo-hydraulic generators. The thermo-hydraulic generator is the main part of the single regime running thermal engines (absolute novelty-pioneer invention), that transforms the thermal energy obtained by burning the fuel (gasoline, diesel fuel, unconventional fuels), in hydrostatic energy. The hydrostatic energy produced by the generator is stored in a hydro-pneumatic accumulator. In the paper are presented the variation functions of the forces acting on the piston in one engine cycle and the variation functions of the kinematic parameters (speeds and accelerations). Because the thermo-hydraulic generator is an absolute novelty, the mathematical model for the piston’s movement developed by the authors is an original one, but is based on classical equations that describe the phenomena that take place in the system.
