Isobaric Expansion Engines: New Opportunities in Energy Conversion for Heat Engines, Pumps and Compressors
Isobaric expansion (IE) engines are a very uncommon type of heat-to-mechanical-power converters, radically different from all well-known heat engines. Useful work is extracted during an isobaric expansion process, i.e., without a polytropic gas/vapour expansion accompanied by a pressure decrease typ...
