Abstract:
A near adiabatic engine has four stages in a cycle: (1) a means of adiabatically expanding the working fluid during the downstroke from a high pressure/temperature level to a low level; (2) a means of cooling the working fluid at Bottom Dead Center (BDC); (3) a means of adiabatically compressing that fluid from a low pressure/temperature level at BDC to the higher level at Top Dead Center (TDC); and finally, (4) a means of passing that working fluid back to the high pressure/temperature source in a balanced pressure environment so as to minimize the resistance of that flow. This disclosure teaches the means of achieving (2) and (3) as follows: (2) a means is disclosed of BDC cooling of the expanded working fluid in the working chamber, and (3) a means is disclosed of adiabatically compressing the working fluid into the pump chamber before cycling the fluid.

Claim (Index 8):
The heat engine of  claim 1 , further comprising a near adiabatic engine with a cooling exchanger, wherein:\n the volume inside said cooling exchanger is sized to accommodate optimum isothermal absorption during compression so as to accommodate optimum adiabatic compression of said working fluid into said pump volume that near matches optimum ideal adiabatic compression; the volume inside said cooling exchanger is sized to achieve near adiabatic compression during said compression into said pump volume that insures that the same quantity of fluid being pressed into said pump is equal to the quantity of fluid that was in the initial bolus initially injected at TDC into said expansion chamber from said heat exchanger. the quantity of fluid in said pump is made equal to the quantity of fluid in said expansion chamber by balancing the density ratio between said cooling exchanger and said pump volumes so to achieve the appropriate heat absorption in said cooling exchanger and so, by sizing the internal volume of said cooling exchanger, an appropriate quantity of adiabatic compressed fluid is pressed into said pump that is equal the quantity of said initial bolus injected at the beginning of the cycle. said cooling exchanger is compactly located around the outside parameter of said working cylinder so as to integrate and provide easy fluid access and flow between said cooling exchanger and said working chamber; and the flow of said released fluid from said cooling exchanger to said working chamber is optimized by the synchronize opening of said BDC uniflow valve due to the exposing movement of said working piston at BDC and the simultaneous TDC opening of said TDC connecting valve between said cooling exchanger and said working chamber.
