Yeah, they do have difficulty keeping their lies straight.

Frankie is still claiming efficiency numbers without any actual testing of working engines. This latest bit of misdirection says "Efficiencies of energy used to energy out is between 32% and 37% depending on working fluid temperature." (OK, let's forget for the moment that she's got the ratio backwards and is stating they have a really good perpetual motion machine here.)

Those numbers, of course, were pulled right out of the air by Harry Schoell. Can you scam investors by saying your engine is less efficient than gasoline or diesel engines? Of course not. So, do some theoretical calculation based on a bunch of unproven assumptions and outright mistakes, then when efficiency still comes out too low at 23.2%, add a "4.05% air side efficiency gain" and a "4.32% water side efficiency gain". These two items are called "Efficiency From Heat Regeneration".

Where did those two numbers come from? Well, they are just what Harry needed to get a total of 31.57% thermal efficiency for the Mark 5. Now those unsuspecting investors would pony up the bucks.

Funny thing, though. That document was created in March of 2009. Last we heard of the Mark 5, in that video of February 2015, some changes have been made:



All of the "heat regenerative" features have been removed from the engine. So no more plus 4.05% plus 4.32%. Yet the claimed engine efficiency hasn't dropped, it's now up to as much as 37%.

How could they do that? Like you say Tom, the only way would be for them to go from the incredible steam temperatures they were claiming (but not demonstrating) to just ludicrous high temperatures. Which means Cyclone engines would now have the world's highest output of NOx emissions.

If Cyclone engines actually worked, that is.
