水蒸気による駆動する水ピストンエンジン(一般セッション 相変化 I)

Abstract

For usage of relatively low temperature wasted heat, a steam-driven water piston engine was planned and simulated. This engine was driven by expansion, condensation and compression of steam with oscillation of water head in the cylinder. It was shown that continuous steam supply resulted in an unstable behavior of water piston, and that intermittent steam supply improved the stability of the engine.
