Is My Arcturusdrive Useful In Outerspace?


Arcturus

Recommended Posts

I've invented a new type rotary engine drive, I'm sure it can be build and work efficiently.

It has 6 stages, intake, compression, backflow, ignition, combustion and exhaust.

 

Do you think it has uses in outerspace or to get to outerspace?

 

I don't wish this to be considered spam, however it's way too complicated to explain how it works without a full animation which can be seen at http://griffithsengines.com

 

Anyway, here's hoping not considered spam, here's a screenshot of my work:

 

What do you think? Any use for space?

To start off working out how it works, start of when the purple fuel enters the engine and watch from there.

 

Thanks.

Paul.

I don't think this would be particularly useful in space, however that animation is kick-***.

Umm, I have no idea if they use engines in space rockets? Or just burn fuel? If they do use combustion engines similar to jet planes then my engine would be useful.

If you have no idea about that, the chance that you know anything about designing an engine will be infinitesimal.

Not using a very efficient engine in a rocket does not the chance of it being useful for longer distance travel.

I take it you're in the complaining camp while other are creating new ideas?

Actually that is false using nuclear fusion plasma rockets is the newest idea, we think we can pull off and they are sustainable for long periods of time in space. This Arcturus Drive would actually be a step backward from current research in the area of space flight.

Thanks for the info :)

 

Here's a challenge for those that like such, from your mothers food mixer, paint mixer to my engine:

 

The only thing I can currently think of is using a thick tar seal.

Would a propeller work in outerspace against dark matter or other?

If so, then could use nuclear fusion to boil water and use a turbine similar to my engine to rotate the propeller... 

Does nuclear fusion produce more heat than plasma?

 

This is what is currently used for turbines, however a great deal of power is lost by steam going through between the blades(in fact, probably most of it):

No, you can't use a propeller in space.

How about driving the actual engine forward to impact a wall within the spaceship, that would push the spaceship forward, the engine would then be stationary while the spaceship travels forward ready to be push again.

Using newtons theory(similar to how pool balls collide) I belive there is profit as you add in the acceleration of the engine. There is profit, it's not a great deal however is should work.

May be lots of engines to smooth out the journey.

 

The engine is lighter than the spaceship, however the acceleration of the engine would push the spaceship forward larger than the engine would bounce off the wall.

Throw a ball at your monitor, if the monitor falls over, then ball would fall to the floor.

Yes but the problem with that is the actual structure of the ship would keep it together as you impacted that wall there would be a counterforce on the structure by the bonds between the atom/molecules, it still would not move it in space as there is no frictional force to accelerate against.

Umm, yes, keep going...

 

I'm sure god created the universe as such to keep different species apart like some sort of zoo.
