Actually, advanced Stirling engines tend to use highly pressurized Helium, which is the lightest monatomic element. GM spent $200 million on developing a really well-performing Stirling engine that could potentially burn anything combustible, and with great efficiency, but they wanted more money for retooling and were never funded. I have a design that integrates heat-pipes and pistons, that would be far more efficient, smaller and cheaper. However, I am still focusing on mechanically harnessing the momentum of the ephemeral photons of the Quantum Vacuum by altering the manner in which a pair of back to back mirrors interact with these photons so that one mirror experiences more reflection forces than the other, oppositely facing mirrors. (There is reason to believe that there are some subtle differences between how photons conserve momentum and how mass-possessing objects conserve momentum.) z-pec.yolasite.com Scott

The only problem is ofcourse to heat the gas. More of the heating energy goes into gas expansion in noble gases compared to diatomic gases. I assume that good Sterling engines use noble gas. There is too much hush hush regarding Sterling techniques. DavidDavid Jonsson, Sweden, phone callto:+46703000370 On Sun, Jun 26, 2011 at 10:40 PM, Frank Roarty <[email protected]> wrote: Frank X. Roarty -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Inert gas engine From: Frank Roarty <[email protected]> To: [email protected] CC: Hoyt, The inert gas engine was developed from the Papp engine. For those such as myself that believe all these anomalies from Black Light Plasma, sonoluminesence to the heat anomalies in metal powders and lattices are all based on vacuum engineering of energy density by use of casimir geometry relative to the random motion of ionized gases. I did a blog on the Papp engine back in March see froarty.scienceblog.com which has a lengthy reply from John Rhoner the CEO of Plasma ERG and patent author. fran
