The new engine uses gaseous fuels that have not been burned in reciprocating engines so far. The engine developed by the scientists of the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering (MEiL) of the Warsaw University of Technology (PW) and industrial partners has extremely high efficiency and  low CO2 emission.

-Thanks to the used solutions, we have obtained a relatively simple design with a variable compression ratio system and pseudoadiabatic combustion chambers – explains Dr  Paweł Mazuro, scientist of the Faculty of MEiL PW. This increases the efficiency of the engine and enables the combustion of fuels with a very low calorific value or variable physico-chemical composition. The engine is tested on both liquid and gaseous fuels.

Their latest project – PAMAR 5  is the fifth generation of the engine, developed by Dr Eng. Paweł Mazuro and his team. This time, WUT scientists are developing their ideas as part of the project “Research on a high-efficiency engine using HCCI technology for applications in distributed energy”, financed by the National Center for Research and Development.
