Operating and Maintenance Costs

The Cyclone Engine has the ability to run efficiently on cheaper fuels and being water lubricated, needs no oil changes.

  • Moreover, the clean burning nature of its external combustion design avoids the carbon fouling and residues that ‘coke’ up conventional gas and diesel engines over time.

  • With fewer operating parts, no transmission or clutch, and fewer peripherals in the Cyclone Engine system, there is less to maintain, lower cost and as an added benefit environmentally cleaner than with a conventional internal combustion engine.

  • What about Cost and Carbon Exchange. Gasoline – High in CO2 as there is no carbon exchange for gasoline engines using ethanol. Ethanol has a higher cost, as it is refined from a biofuel then distilled using coal in a dirty process to make a fuel of lower BTU value and higher maintenance costs due to “Coking”. Gasoline Engines can only use gasoline and alcohol. Diesel Engines using diesel fuel has no Carbon Exchange plus High Compression causes extremely toxic compounds harmful to humans and the environment. The highly refined Biofuel cost about 1/3 more to produce than Diesel Fuel and can be highly corrosive to carbon steel, which is harmful to diesel engines. The only cost effective environmentally clean engine is the Cyclone External Combustion Engine.
