Very nice engine.
Hey i know that guy, Hi Curt. And that engine, i spent a few hours cleaning
that this year getting ready for the show. Looking forward to next year
already. Jerry
Nice job, but this vibration and noise…
There is nothing “green” about a steam engine! Nice engineering,
fascinating even – but not a solution to anything at this point in time.
I’m not trying to be funny here, but why would you have a wobble-plate
engine vs. a more conventional triple compound or twin or even single
cylinder engine – especially for a dedicated use like electrical generators
– where simplicity and reliability are of such importance? Seems like a
long way to go to eliminate a flywheel?
By their nature steam engines are incredibly inefficient; huge amounts of
energy in waste steam which is not recovered. That’s is the main reason why
even with modern configuration and fuel they will never return. So Green
Steam Engine is a contradiction in terms, like Green Festival or Green
Bomb.
A turbine with a heat recovery system could be green, but not an engine.
rpm?
These are just toys, there is no way they make the horsepower you claim.
Lol

What are the service hours on this thing looks like to me 1 hour of run
time to 3 hours of service all that vibration will kill the contact points
and bearings
I want to say this is good thinking about being energy independent but
steam engine’s need to not wobble at all and need to reclaim steam to be a
efficient alternative way of generating electricity but it’s better than
oil keep up the good work. May I make a suggestion, let’s use a tesla
turbine that is one of the most efficient machine’s out there and use a so
called cold fusion device to power it in home’s this would be the best set
up in my opinion.
Concept…..TURBINE…..not pistons…..

Yes, the vibration is the killer for this project. I have seen this design
work well for the Stirling Engine though with the same universal hookup
without all that vibration.
website isn’t there anymore.. and the engine shown I believe is the green
river steam engine. not tronjon.
This is great. Once Rossi cold fusion comes along, this will be free.
Internal combustion engines will be dead.
yes
absolutely!
this is sooooo HOT !!!!
I want to see the destructive harmonics study on these things..

How much torque? How much power. Nice looking, but I’ve seen this before.
What is the output?
is it possible to capture the steam and condense it back into water for
reuse?
you don’t even need to dampen such ”vibrations” as a matter of fact, …
those are just the needed movements the links need to make to archieve the
needed output (mechanism)… you are lucky to see the nakedness of the
whole arrangement, … if it were encased,.. you would marvel,…. STEAM IN
at one end ,.. ROTATION at the other….!!!
I tried to go to your website to place an order… I hope that you guys are
not defunked.
how much hp are you getting off of this
can u fix ur website pls. Your weblink address tronjon.com seems to be
broken. Will love to see all your products and contact as well. Thanks.
Great show.
