Frequently Asked Question

1)- What drives the movable cylinder head ?

The movable cylinder head is drive by a hydraulic system, which particular performance enables it to reach up to a non continuos movement of the movable head with different speeds when it goes in the upper way or in the lower way and while staying stationary because of the performance. This movement is completely manageable and could be regulated and adjust.

2)- How much energy does the movement of the movable head waste ?

It uses up the same energy than actual engines when they compress their loading in the PMS

3)-  How does the movable head lubricates ?

The lubrication takes place in the crankcase like in the 4-cycle engines. The movable cylinder head is being lubricated by the across movement of the power piston and the movable head. This way, we achieve a 2-cycle engine that works with all the same features just as the 4-cycle engines do.

4)- Is the acceleration equal to present engines ?

The acceleration will be slower than present engines because the piston’s runaway is 2 times longer than present engines. This feature, which increases its power, makes it a slower engine.

5)- Why the VTMG engine is call an 'internal explosion engine' ?

The VTMG engine uses all the energy produced by the internal explosion in the precise moment it occurs coinciding when you have the best torque. This feature does not verify in the present internal combustion engines because they use only the remaining power of the combustion, already weakened due to the progressive increase of the combustion chamber.

6)- Which fuel makes it work ?

The VTMG engine will work with any fuel. Its greater advantage is that it will end with the use of pollutant fuels. It will enable to use renewable fuels like alcohols, methane, etc. . For high power engines, like trains, ships, power plants, etc., gasoil could be used.

7)- If no refrigeration is needed, then how does it dissipate the heat ?

The heat is dissipated by air. This will be a ‘cold engine’ that will produce less heating because the explosion will take place at 70º where all the energy (heat) is liberated. This way, the great heating of present engines is avoid between the PMS (0º) and the 70º with a pair motor that keeps increasing from zero value while, simultaneously, a great part of the combustion energy is waste in the combustion itself because of the continuos increase of the combustion chamber.

8)- If it does not require neither battery nor an ignition engine...

We replaced the battery and the ignition engine because these are two extremely heavy elements for the automobile which cause pollution and, furthermore, they have to be replaced frequently. Our system consists of a small hydraulic device.

9)- Does it have an alternator ?

Yes, the same as the present engines.

10)- Do you find contradictory that this engine generates more power with less calories ?

No, it does not exist any contradiction. Simply, because the VTMG engine uses the calories in the optimum point of the par-engine, between the 70º and the 160º of the crankshaft’s rotation.

11)- If the engine uses renewable and no leaded fuel, will this engine produce a lot of piston strokes ?

No. One of the reasons of the piston strokes in the present engines is that they are fastened to the static MUP (Middle Upper Point). In our engine, the combustion is produced in other place and between two parts in armonic motion in the same direction, as if they were reciprocally pushing. The movable cylinder head stops at 60º and the piston continues with its forced race towards the MUP (Middle Upper Point).

12)- If it does not have a carburetor, how does it mix the fuel with the air ?

It does not need a carburetor because the VTMG engine automatically produces two consecutive waves of compressed air, both very well differentiated and introduced in the compression chamber: the first one, a big wave for the gases’ sweeping and the second for the entry and fulfill of the causing combustion mix.

As you can see, the injection of the causing combustion mix is produced in the second wave, totally isolated from the burned gases that were already eliminated with the first wave. It results in a mix absolutely rich with no contamination at all.

13)- How many cylinders does the VTMG engine have ?

It may have many cylinders, but there will be necessary less quantity than in present engines, considering the estipulated power. We estimate that in an automobile, for example, it will be enough with an engine of two small cylinders. For bigger engines, such as power plants, ships, trains, etc., various cylinders will be required.

14)- What does the transfer cycle consist of ?

To transfer the causing combustion mix over compressing it until 70º after the MUP (Middle Upper Point).

15)- How does it sincronize the movement of the movable cylinder head with the crankshaft rotation, with sensors ?

No sensors are needed. The hydraulic system is linked by a connecting rod to the crankshaft.

16)- How do you manage to achieve that the cylinder top reaches so high speed as the cycle of the engine, considering that the hydraulic systems are not so fast because they are frequently used to obtain great power ?

The hydraulic system as the engine does not work at high speeds so forget about the relation power-speed, this verifies in the present engines not in the VTMG engine, also at the time of the great power it remains steady and blocked sustaining the power of the explosion. We have made tests in no ideal conditions and nevertheless we have achieved 3000 RPM with none difficulties.

17)- Does it consume negative energies ?

To compress at 70º after the MUP (Middle Upper Point) it does not consume more negative energy than present engines, on the contrary is less troublesome because it compresses in a longer period of time.

18)- Will the VTMG engine normally work under low temperature conditions ?

The VTMG engine is extremely suitable to operate under very low temperatures that take place in many countries because it refrigerates itself only by air, using no battery due to the fact that the ignition engine is replaced by a hydraulic system.

19)- How much will it cost to manufacture one unit of the VTMG engine ?
