The only book available on liquid piston engines, covering the
design, application, maintenance, troubleshooting, and advances in
the technology. Whether used in irrigation, cooling nuclear
reactors, pumping wastewater, or any number of other uses, the
liquid piston engine is a much more efficient, effective, and
"greener" choice than many other choices available to industry.
Especially if being used in conjunction with solar panels, the
liquid piston engine can be extremely cost-effective and has very
few, if any, downsides or unwanted side effects. As industries all
over the world become more environmentally conscious, the liquid
piston engine will continue growing in popularity as a better
choice, and its low implementation and operational costs will be
attractive to end-users in developing countries. This is the only
comprehensive, up-to-date text available on liquid piston engines.
The first part focuses on the identification, design, construction
and testing of the liquid piston engine, a simple, yet elegant,
device which has the ability to pump water but which can be
manufactured easily without any special tooling or exotic materials
and which can be powered from either combustion of organic matter
or directly from solar heating. It has been tested, and the authors
recommend how it might be improved upon. The underlying theory of
the device is also presented and discussed. The second part deals
with the performance, troubleshooting, and maintenance of the
engine. This volume is the only one of its kind, a groundbreaking
examination of a fascinating and environmentally friendly
technology which is useful in many industrial applications. It is a
must-have for any engineer, manager, or technician working with
pumps or engines.
