Free Piston Engine specification

Tweet The Active Crank Train experimental rig at the University of Lincoln is reconfigurable to run as either a conventional single cylinder dynamometer, or by decoupling the lower piston and connecting rod, to operate as a single cylinder 4-stroke free-piston engine with linear motor/generator. A significant part of the specification for the rig is the […]
