We've heard of the Scuderi Split-Cycle engine before, and we even spotted a plastic mock-up at SAE World Congress last year. This year the design is complete, and they project 140 HP per liter!

May 25, 2009 For more than 100 years people have been trying to come up with an engine design to supercede Nicolaus Otto's four-stroke internal combustion motor. Scuderi is the latest to take a ...

The split-cycle engine The split-cycle engine cuts this four-stroke cycle into two parts. It uses 'paired' cylinders, with each cylinder in the pair doing half the work.

The split-cycle engine It uses 'paired' cylinders, with each cylinder in the pair doing half the work. We first covered the concept a few years back, after Scuderi completed a prototype .

Other split cycle engines were hampered by low volumetric and thermal efficiencies that made them inferior to conventional engines. This new engine has pneumatic valves that open outward, ...

The split-cycle engine requires the same number of cylinders as a conventional engine, but the compressor and expander cylinders must be equally paired.

Split cycle engines—engines that split the functions of a normal four-cycle piston into two separate but adjacent and complementary pistons—have never been able to match the efficiency and ...

We first heard about the Scuderi Group and its split cycle engine over two years ago. At that time, they were showing off a concept for a split cycle engine that in theory, at least, could ...

Scuderi split-cycle engine decreases 2011 Nissan Sentra's fuel consumption by up to 35%. Scuderi Group, an engineering and licensing company based in West Springfield, MA, has released fuel ...

We first told you about the Scuderi Split-Cycle engine's astonishing 140 HP per liter potential back in April when it was just a bench prototype. Now it's running and we've got the exclusive video ...

While the Scuderi Split-cycle engine may be very new (his patent was filed in July 2001), it is based on a design that's been around since 1914. Not to get too technical, ...
