Why open source?
As an independent inventor, I have embarked on a journey to develop a novel rotary piston engine design. This endeavor, however, has been met with significant financial and technical challenges. The process of patenting such a complex invention and conducting the necessary simulations and calculations to fully validate the design requires substantial resources that are beyond my current means.
Recognizing these limitations, I have made a conscious decision to open-source this project. By sharing my work freely with the global engineering community, I aim to leverage the collective expertise and resources of countless individuals and organizations. This collaborative approach offers the best chance of bringing this innovative concept to fruition and accelerating its development.
The rotary piston engine design presented here offers several key advantages over traditional internal combustion engines. Its compact design, high power-to-weight ratio, and direct conversion of combustion energy into rotational motion promise improved efficiency, reduced emissions, and enhanced performance. These characteristics make it a promising candidate for applications in the automotive, aerospace, and marine industries.
However, the true potential of this design remains to be fully realized. Through open collaboration, we can collectively explore the feasibility and viability of this engine concept. By sharing knowledge, insights, and resources, we can refine the design, address potential challenges, and ultimately determine whether this rotary piston engine can become a practical reality.
Ultimately, my motivation for sharing this project stems from a deep-seated curiosity. I am eager to see if this innovative engine design can offer a viable alternative to existing technologies. By making this project open source, I invite engineers, enthusiasts, and manufacturers from around the world to join me in this exciting endeavor. Together, we can push the boundaries of engine design and create a more sustainable future.
