Abstract: A high efficiency uniflow steam engine having automatic inlet and exhaust valves rather than camshaft operated valves includes an electromagnet and cooperating armature that actuates a cutoff control valve for closing a steam inlet valve at any time selected to cut off the flow of steam to the cylinder. Approaching the end of the exhaust stroke, e.g., about 0.12 inch before TDC the cylinder can be sealed to thereby compressing the remaining residual steam down to a minute clearance approaching zero, for example, 0.020 inch raising cylinder steam pressure enough to open the steam inlet valve without physical contact between the piston and the steam inlet valve eliminating tappet noise, shock and wear.

Abstract: A thermal engine includes an expansion fluid pump which propels water from an expansion fluid tank into an electrolytic cell having an anode and a cathode, which generates a quantity of oxyhydrogen from the water; and propels the oxyhydrogen into one of an engine cylinder and an exhaust chamber, whereupon oxyhydrogen propelled into the cylinder expands abruptly into steam in the intake chamber to increase pressure within the cylinder and thereby enhance thermal engine power, and oxyhydrogen propelled into the heat exchanger cools the water vapor back into liquid water, which generates a vacuum within the exhaust chamber to increase the power of the thermal engine.

Abstract: A pressure balanced tube assembly characterized in that the tube thereof has end portions in telescoped sealed relation with spaced apart coupling members, the assembly being such that fluid pressure therein does not impose an axial separating force on the coupling members. The tube assembly is further characterized in that the tube end portions remain sealed in the coupling members despite departure of the spaced location of the coupling members, due to tolerance variations, from predetermined relation with respect to each other both axially and laterally.

Abstract: It is challenging to detect end of stroke for hydraulically actuated, reciprocating piston pumps for a variety of reasons. When the pump pressurizes a process fluid to a 10 relatively low pressure the magnitude of hydraulic fluid pressure is not as distinct compared to the magnitude of a pressure drop across a shuttle valve employed to detect end of stroke, which makes detecting the end of stroke event difficult. A method is disclosed for detecting end of a piston stroke in a hydraulic motor comprising a reciprocating piston with a shuttle valve. The method comprises 1 detecting end of piston stroke when a magnitude of a rate of change of hydraulic fluid pressure is substantially greater than a magnitude of a mean rate of change of hydraulic fluid pressure over said piston stroke; and noise in a hydraulic fluid pressure signal is substantially negligible.
