The wave disc engine, a new implementation of wave rotor technology, was earlier developed by the Michigan State group in collaboration with researchers from the Warsaw Institute of Technology. The WDG also can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by as much as 95 percent in comparison to modern internal combustion vehicle engines.

Schematic of downsized and supercharged four-stroke hybrid pneumatic spark injection engine. The injection of the additional air during transients can overcome the poor driveability usually associated with heavily downsized and supercharged engines, the team notes. However, this setup adds complexity and cost. [In

This technology will allow researchers to develop future combustion engines free from the piston motion constraints dictated by the crankshaft. Already validated at proof-of-concept level, Libertine’s new hardware uses production-feasible component designs suitable for automotive hybrid powertrain modules, such as range extenders.
