Power System Analysis and Design of the Six-Cylinder Hydraulic Confined Piston Engine

Hydraulic Confined Piston Engine (HCPE) is a new type of internal combustion engine which can directly convert thermal energy into hydraulic energy. Power system of the six-cylinder HCPE is studied in this paper. The power system model is built; the power system analysis and design are carried through. The new type of crank connecting rod mechanism is proposed in the six-cylinder HCPE. Fitting-curves of movement, force, and torque for the key parts are drawn to provide theoretical support for the prototype of the six-cylinder HCPE.
