ICE Breakthrough!? NEW Piston Design BREAKS Records

What I see is a reduction in compression due to the dimples, less power would make the engine work harder and use more fuel.

Independent studies are out i look through them and it shows to work. 15% in power and fuel improvement and big reduction in nox levels. I mean it's a goofball effect so im not surprised that it has an effect

@Tech_Planet did you actually talk to this company or do any research on their claims? Because it looks like you just did a mashup of a simple promo video with zero context.

Sounds too good to be true?

Dimples, Golf Ball principle, if Smooth Golf Balls went further then all the Players would use those. One for Fluid Dynamic Specialists, but anything to improve the Bang Efficiency of an ICE / Biofuel Engine would be beneficial.

Run it and watch it😊

For my 1995 F-350 7.3L Powerstroke a piston kit, pistons and rings, is $3700.97 or $462.62 per cylinder!! Are you kidding!!!! It’s a damn piston for a pickup truck!! Companies like this piss me off! If they can’t figure out a way to manufacture a piston with a few little dimples on the top for a reasonable price I hope they go out of business!

Total BS!

efficiency is the key here more power better fuel and less emissions'. i would say if 15% better fuel and power and maybe 6o % reduction in nox emissions is true their will be a market for this part

Id try them in my 56 block 5.9 cummins build but not at the price they want for them. I could get a set of Monotherms cheaper and have EGT just become a number at that point.

1 there is not an electric grid anywhere in the world that could handle a transition to electric vehicles
2 I am by no means an expert but I fo know the air inside s cylinder does not all burn. There is s very small distance from all metal parts in which the air does not burn. On the golf ball type dimpled piston creates more surface area in which the air won't burn. I would think that would be bad for powerand efficiency but I can see how it would help with emissions

MARKETING BS BIG TIME! NO 25% EFFICIENCY IMPPROVENT WHATSOEVER! STOP LYING!

It is the same reason a golf ball with small round holes in it goes twice as far than a smooth ball , air flow disruption over a surface, they learned long ago polishing intake ports in any engine reduces flow , and putting small divits or round holes in the surface improve air flow, that is why every intake port you have ever seen is rough cast, the factory can cast smooth ports but the cheap way without taking the time to drill hundreds of small holes in confined port space is to make it rough cast, simple !

stop renovating piston type tech , no more end already!!!

Electric cars are ok until you get a fire inside of a motorway tunnel.
these cars don’t turn out! they need multiple fire engines

they release a toxic black smoke, and i feel sorry for the person caught in that tunnel

Suit eh?

Put in old honda civic, one with stock pistons n those and lets see then.

Why would anyone want a glorified golf cart

Cummins, not cummings

🥱

Technology is advancing. Everything little advancement stacks up. Fossil fuels are used in many products. The world will be in distress without fossil fuels. I am one of the people that do not want an EV. According to science EVS are more destructive to the environment than fossil fuels. The engineers at Ford and GM can create engines that put out less emissions. This piston proves that.

We need camless cars. Pneumatic valves with full valve control

There are dimples, and there are caverns, which this design seems to employ. I call bs. The charge exiting the chamber is at LEAST as important and entering. And the notes all around, not just this video, but all of the EV naysayers claiming that the grids can’t handle the “extra” demands of EV charging. This has been studied in depth and it’s complete rubbish. The recent effort in California to reduce the demands on the system by NOT charging your EVs at PEAK hours was a discretionary campaign to make EV owners more aware of WHEN they were charging their cars. There had been no serious threat to the grid beforehand, but the engineers voiced their concerns for a worst case scenario and simply sought to make a preemptive strike to get a different mindset rolling. During the “changeover” period between ICE use and EV use, there will be some spikes in electric grid usage, as BOTH types of propelling machinery will be used, and that overlap is what I’m calling the “changeover.” This period will hit its peak in the next three to five years, but will certainly not be the fault of the EV. It MAY be caused by EV use, but not the FAULT of the EV use. These “changeovers” have happened in the past, but even then, they weren’t really changeovers, they were simply dramatically increased demand on the grid, in three notable periods in modern history. One at the onset of refrigeration invention, implementation on the industrial scale,and then into progressively more common household use. There was a significant increase demand on the power grid, unfits were made, new stations were built, and life went on with little fanfare or uproar. Everyone was happy, people could keep otherwise trashed food longer, such like and so forth. Soon enough the second wave came along, with home air conditioning, which was yet ANOTHER big demand on the grid, and yet another cycle of up fitting was done in accordance with de,ands, and it was at this time that many companies put great effort into future proofing their systems. No system can be entirely future proof, but they can implement forward thinking provisions to prevent problems on the horizon. This happened in the past, it wasn’t a catastrophe, and we moved on. In this case, the actual overall impact will be significantly lower than those previous changes. And to make a bit of a sarcastic joke on the matter, these things do add up. For every vehicle being charged directly from the grid, there is also one less vehicle using the electric pump at the gas station which pumps fuel from the tanks in the ground to the automobile tank. I’m not so naive as to think a pump moving 20 gallons of gasoline up ten feet and into a car will use as much power as an EV Charger. But it is yet another part of the equation I have yet to notice anyone else take into consideration. The amount of electricity consumed from the point of drilling for oil, then containing it, transporting it, refining it, then transporting it again, all use quite a bit of electricity, and let’s just start adding it all up, by volume of energy density, or by whatever means, it will add up and a reduction in oil production will partially offset the added demands of EV charging, at least. Not to mention the one giant elephant in the room. ICE systems are at best of the best approaching 40% efficiency. EV systems at worst of worst are over 85% efficiency. There is not even a ballgame here worth competing. All the EV naysayers are arguing a subject lost before it began. You can calcualte the environmental impacts of lithium mining till you are blue in the face. And how fossil fueled power stations are often used to charge EVs in the first place, all day long, but when it comes down to REAL, QUANTIFIABLE DATA, there is no argument to be had. We will soon enough look over our shoulders in shame and wonder why it took so long to take advantage of the wonders of electricity. One word. Greed. That’s why.

Makes sense.

I didn't watch... but this would probably be a Mazda thing. I just those crazy, beautiful people over there at Mazda QC. My car is a gem. Reliable as me;)

I think the piston engine is obsolete. But with out it the gasoline a terrible fuel could not be sold. As far as diesel fuel they want emission standards high so more will be used. It is a a big game of lies. The more fuel burned the more pollution and with emission laws less power, so you must burn even more fuel. That results in bigger profit and as I said more pollution.

I always said a big mic makes one look more intelligent and noteworthy.

One thing you need to consider is that those industrial haulers mostly operate in a very predictable, constant pace. This means they can fine tune every components of the drivetrain to offer the highest efficiency within the tighter operating margin, where as privately owned vehicles have to basically do everything well (go slow, fast, start & stop often, go fast at constant pace, etc.). This makes optimization for large gains on personal vehicles much more challenging (and much less likely through these gimmicks) than on industrial machinery.

Data will be forthcoming as it is undergoing epa verification. One PER customer in canada has absolutely seen results on par with the claims.

It's golfball

They need to stop worrying about cost, maybe remove your 380% profit margin and buy harder to make better quality parts and still at a lower cost. Also stop making the manufacturer companies all about speed and product output and just make sure every single car that's comes off the line has been hand assembled slower at the top of the line quality.

Its lacking reality🎉

When is the Government going to charge road tax on EVs? Your going to see home meters and the EV will only charge through it.

Anytime that any company says a 25% improvement and efficiency I'm telling you right now what they mean by that is the first generational designs of a piston yeah 25% better than a standard square piston probably because the current ones are like 24% better than that and if they say an 80% reduction in emissions yeah probably over the first generation of Pistons but we're currently at what 78% maybe even 82% also any engine can double the oil change interval right now I mean oil is pretty cheap and the engine probably cost more than oil but you know you don't even have to change the oil at all in an engine ever you can just swap out the engine no oil changes at all

i can see where these pistons will drop compression unless head chambers are shrunk to fill extra space.

This IP belongs to North Korea I believe.

Optimization of the pressure front on the piston should be the focus. Adding a compressed air path to the injector and a mixing venturi to fully atomize the fuel being placed into the combustion chamber will provide much better gains.

The dimples increase the air mixture close to the piston top which actually causes more turbulence inside the squish area, this results in a much better or more complete burn of the intake charge, less likely to have a pre-ignition although this is diesel so that is not much of an issue given the fuel is direct injected.

There is no way 25% increase in mileage/efficiency. There just isn't that much to save here.

First of all whenever there is a new breakthrough that is more efficient and more powerful often the patent is bought and buried. Also the gasoline direct injection technology with the 2000 lb. fuel pressure and the injectors spraying fuel directly into the center of the cylinders provided a healthy increase in efficiency and power partly because the fuel spray being sprayed into the center of the cylinder caused the resulting combustion to remain mostly in the center thereby extracting more power and less heat transfering to the cylinder walls. I know they have had issues to overcome with GDI. This is kind of opposite to what this video is saying like spraying fuel towards the cylinder walls ? So ?

that thing got a hemi?

So I just gotta drop BBs into my engine to increase efficiency

If the 25% with lower emissions was true every new car would have them factory-installed .

Cummins.

Not Cummings.

Somender Signh , motorcycle racer and mechanic, patented a piston very similar to this one. It was written about in 2004 Popular Science magazine.

25% better mileage HAHAHAHA. double oil-life HAHAHAHA......HAHA...ha.

I have a CNC mill , I'll have to try that out

Just in time for the EV revolution.....LOL

When can we have a block made of clear aluminum? Can't be hiding those cute dimples!
