- The research presents theoretical and experimental analysis of the patented linear Joule cycle free-piston engine (WO2010GB50581) and provided the basis for the development of zero emission closed cycle free-piston patented concept (WO2018138509). The work resulted in the awarded EPSRC project 'A Zero-Emission Closed-loop linear-Joule CYcle (ZECCY) engine generator' (EP/R041970/1) project partnered by CENEX, Nissan Research, Reece Innovation Ltd., SIAC Motors UK, Northern Gas Networks. The construction of the first ever prototype machine was funded by Innovate UK (132757) ‘Demonstration of a zero emission, high-efficiency argon-hydrogen reactor for hybrid heavy-duty vehicles’ project led by SR Technology Innovations Ltd.
