LiquidPiston’s X Engine improves virtually all parameters – efficiency, weight, size, vibration, and noise. LiquidPiston’s HEHC is a patented thermodynamic cycle that combines the advantages of Diesel, Otto and Atkinson thermodynamic cycles, resulting in up to 30% improved efficiency.

An X engine is a piston engine with four banks of cylinders around a common crankshaft, such that the cylinders form an "X" shape when viewed front-on. The advantage of an X engine is that it is shorter than a V engine of the same number of cylinders, [2] however the drawbacks are greater weight and complexity as compared to a radial engine ...

Jul 31, 2024 · X Engine is designed to empower the future of Purdue Experiential Learning in Engineering, Science and Technology. The platform serves as a hub for students to engage with internships, co-ops, research, skills training, project-based learning and global experiences.

LiquidPiston’s X-Engine is a rotary engine that is 30% more efficient and up to 10X smaller than a traditional diesel engine.

The X Engine from LiquidPiston is powered by the company’s innovative High Efficiency Hybrid Cycle (HEHC). This non-Wankle rotary engine has few parts and three combustion events per rotor revolution, resulting in tremendous power density.

Jan 24, 2025 · LiquidPiston’s flagship innovation, the X-Engine, builds on the principles of rotary engines but with a transformative twist.

Jul 7, 2023 · This modern rendition of the X engine is on the flatter side of square, with 60-degree and 120-degree complementary bank angles, and is force-fed by a pair of turbochargers. While spanning more than a century, the X engine design can hardly be called one of history’s more successful engine layouts.

The X-engine is a rare piston engine configuration where four cylinder banks radiate from a central crankshaft, forming an X shape when viewed axially. Developed to optimize power density, this design combines elements of V engines and radial layouts for specialized applications.

The 12N360 is a turbocharged, horizontal X engine with 12 cylinders. The X design makes it much more compact than its predecessor, the V-93 [2] (Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant), and similar in size to the 5TDF [3] and 6TDF two-stroke opposed-piston engines (Malyshev Factory). [4]

Dec 15, 2020 · Connecticut company LiquidPiston is developing a portable generator for the US Army using its X-Engine, which promises as much power as the Army's current gen-set at one-fifth the size.
