The Quasiturbine engine was developed as an improvement on the standard Wankel or rotary engine. Unlike piston or standard rotary engines, the Quasiturbine's four-element rotor and carriages allow it to withstand the high pressures needed for photo-detonation combustion. This makes the Quasiturbine more efficient than piston or standard rotary engines. The Quasiturbine engine arranges the four strokes of combustion sequentially around an oval housing without needing a crankshaft. This produces power with each revolution rather than every other revolution as in piston engines. While still in development, the Quasiturbine engine aims to be simpler and more efficient than conventional engines.
The gas turbine is an internal combustion engine that uses air as the working fluid. The engine extracts chemical energy from fuel and converts it to mechanical energy using the gaseous energy of the working fluid (air) to drive the engine and propeller, which, in turn, propel the airplane.

Since the invention of internal combustion engines, camshafts have been used to operate the valves on the cylinder head to bring in air and fuel and expel exhaust gases. The conventional valve train has its limitations: the single lobed cam is designed to operate the valves at only specific periods of the Otto cycle, thus preventing the engine from achieving maximum torque at higher rpms. The opening and closing of the valves is constrained by the geometry of the cam profile. The concept of camless engines allows for greater optimization of overall engine performance during different phases of running.
Pistonless pump that makes them different from that of turbopump ,is the absence of piston.
This is a unique technique. In this ,no. of rotating parts is very less as compared to that of turbo pump.

The vehicle propulsion is usually obtained by means of engines, also known as prime movers, i.e. mechanical devices capable to convert the chemical energy of a fuel into mechanical energy. By the way, the English term “engine”, is likely to have a French origin in the Old French word “engin” which in turns is thought to come from the Latin “ingenium” (sharing the same root of “ingénieur” or “engineer”).

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Quasi Turbine Engine
1. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
1. INTRODUCTION
The Saint - Hilaire family first patented the Quasiturbine combustion
engine in 1996. The Quasiturbine concept resulted from research that
began with an intense evaluation of all engine concepts to note
advantageous, disadvantageous and opportunities for improvement.
During this exploratory process, the Saint – Hilaire team came to realize
that a unique engine solution would be one that made improvements to
the standard Wankel or rotary engine.
Like rotary engines, the Quasiturbine engine is based on a rotor-
and-housing design. But instead of three blades, the Quasiturbine rotor
has four elements chained together, with combustion chambers located
between each element and the walls of the housing.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 1
2. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
There are actually two different ways to configure this design --
one with carriages and one without carriages.
2. The Simple Quasiturbine Engine
The simpler Quasiturbine model looks very much like a traditional
rotary engine: A rotor turns inside a nearly oval-shaped housing. Notice,
however, that the Quasiturbine rotor has four elements instead of three.
The sides of the rotor seal against the sides of the housing, and the
corners of the rotor seal against the inner periphery, dividing it into four
chambers.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 2
3. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
In a piston engine, one complete four-stroke cycle produces two
complete revolutions of the crankshaft that means the power output of a
piston engine is half a power stroke per one piston revolution.
A Quasiturbine engine, on the other hand, doesn't need pistons.
Instead, the four strokes of a typical piston engine are arranged
sequentially around the oval housing. There's no need for the crankshaft
to perform the rotary conversion.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 3
4. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
Intake : which draws in a mixture of fuel and air
Compression :which squeezes the fuel-air mixture into a smaller
volume
Combustion :which uses a spark from a spark plug to ignite the fuel
Exhaust :which expels waste gases (the byproducts of combustion)
from the engine compartment
Quasiturbine engines with carriages work on the same basic idea as
this simple design, with added design modifications that allow for
photo-detonation.
Photo-detonation is a superior combustion mode that requires more
compression and greater sturdiness than piston or rotary engines can
provide.
3. Types of Internal Combustion Engines
Internal combustion engines fall into four categories based on how
well air and fuel are mixed together in the combustion chamber and how
the fuel is ignited.
Four Types of Internal Combustion Engines
Homogenous Fuel-air Heterogeneous Fuel-air
Mixture Mixture
Type II
Type I
Spark-ignition Gasoline Direct-injection
Gasoline Engine
(GDI) Engine
Pressure-heated Type IV Type III
Self-ignition Photo-detonation Engine Diesel Engine
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 4
5. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
Type I : Includes engines in which the air and fuel mix thoroughly to
form what is called a homogenous mixture. When a spark ignites the fuel,
a hot flame sweeps through the mixture, burning the fuel as it goes. This,
of course, is the gasoline engine.
Type II : A gasoline-direct injection engine uses partially mixed fuel and
air (i.e., a heterogeneous mixture) that is injected directly into the
cylinder rather than into an intake port. A spark plug then ignites the
mixture, burning more of the fuel and creating less waste.
Type III : Air and fuel are only partially mixed in the combustion
chamber. This heterogeneous mixture is then compressed, which causes
the temperature to rise until self-ignition takes place.
Type IV : The best attributes of gasoline and diesel engines are
combined. A premixed fuel-air charge undergoes tremendous
compression until the fuel self-ignites. This is what happens in a photo-
detonation engine, and because it employs a homogenous charge and
compression ignition, it is often described as an HCCI engine. HCCI
(Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition) combustion results in
virtually no emissions and superior fuel efficiency. This is because photo-
detonation engines completely combust the fuel, leaving behind no
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 5
6. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
hydrocarbons to be treated by a catalytic converter or simply expelled
into the air.
Of course, the high pressure required for photo-detonation puts a
significant amount of stress on the engine itself. Piston engines can't
withstand the violent force of the detonation. And traditional rotary
engines such as the Wankel, which have longer combustion chambers
that limit the amount of compression they can achieve, are incapable of
producing the high-pressure environment necessary for photo-detonation
to occur.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 6
7. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
Enter the Quasiturbine with carriages. Only this design is strong
enough and compact enough to withstand the force of photo-detonation
and allow for the higher compression ratio necessary for pressure-heated
self-ignition.
4. Quasiturbine with Carriages
The main Components of this engine is described below.
The housing (stator), which is a near oval known as the "Saint-Hilaire
skating rink," forms the cavity in which the rotor rotates.
The housing contains four ports:
A port where the spark plugs normally sits.
A port that is closed with a removable plug.
A port for the intake of air.
An exhaust port used to release the waste gases of combustion.
The housing is enclosed on each side by two covers. The covers
have three ports of their own, allowing for maximum flexibility in how
the engine is configured. For example, one port can serve as an intake
from a conventional carburetor or be fitted with a gas or diesel injector,
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 7
8. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
while another can serve as an alternate location for a spark plug. One of
the three ports is a large outlet for exhaust gasses.
The rotor, made of four blades, replaces the pistons of a typical
internal combustion engine. Each blade has a filler tip and traction slots
to receive the coupling arms. A pivot forms the end of each blade. The
job of the pivot is to join one blade to the next and to form a connection
between the blade and the rocking carriages. There are four rocking
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 8
9. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
carriages total, one for each blade. Each carriage is free to rotate around
the same pivot so that it remains in contact with the inner wall of the
housing at all times. Each carriage works closely with two wheels, which
means there are eight wheels altogether. The wheels enable the rotor to
roll smoothly on the contoured surface of the housing wall and are made
wide to reduce pressure at the point of contact.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 9
10. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
The Quasiturbine engine doesn't need a central shaft to operate; but
of course, a car requires an output shaft to transfer power from the engine
to the wheels. The output shaft is connected to the rotor by two coupling
arms, which fit into traction slots, and four arm braces.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 10
11. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
5. Operation of Quasiturbine with Carriages
In the Quasiturbine engine, the four strokes of a typical piston
Engines are arranged sequentially around the oval housing. The housing
surrounds a four-sided articulated rotor, which turns and moves with in
the housing. The sides of the rotor seal against the sides of the housing
and the corners of the rotor seal against the inner periphery, dividing it in
to four chambers.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 11
12. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
As the rotor blade turns, the volume of the chambers changes. First
the volume increases, which allows the fuel – air mixture to expand. Then
the volume decreases, which compresses the mixture in to a smaller
space. Before the end of the compression the fuel – air mixture is burned
by spark plug. Thus power is produced. One combustion stroke is ending
right when the next combustion stroke is ready to fire. By making a small
channel along the internal housing wall next to the spark plug, a small
amount of hot gas is allowed to flow back to the next ready-to-fire
combustion chamber when each of the carriage seals passes over the
channel. The result is continuous combustion.
The four chambers produce two consecutive circuits. The first
circuit is used to compress and expand during combustion. The second is
used to expel exhaust and intake air. In one revolution of the rotor, four
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 12
13. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
power strokes are created. That's eight times more than a typical piston
engine.
6. Turbine Comparison
Hydraulic, pneumatic, steam, gas and fuel combustion produce
primary energy in the form of expansion and pressure. Being a hydro –
aero –static device, the Quasiturbine directly transforms this pressure
energy in to mechanical rotation motion with optimum efficiency.
Whatever low or high is the pressure. Conventional turbines are hydro –
aero dynamic and efficiency of conventional turbine falls rapidly if the
flow velocity moves away from the optimum. Because the Quasiturbine
does not require the pressure energy to be converted in to the
intermediary form of kinetic energy it has numerous advantageous over
the conventional turbines, including on the efficiency at all regions.
7. Wankel Comparison
The Quasiturbine is superficially similar to the Wankel engine, but is
quite distinct from it. The Wankel engine has a single rigid triangular
rotor synchronized by gears with the housing, and driven by a crankshaft
rotating at three times the rotor speed, which moves the rotor faces
radically inward and outward. The Wankel attempt to realize the four
strokes with a three-sided rotor, limits overlapping port optimization, and
because of the crankshaft, the Wankel has near sinusoidal volume pulse
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 13
14. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
characteristics like the piston. The Quasiturbine has a four-sided
articulated rotor, rotating on a circular supporting track with a shaft
rotating at the same speed as the rotor. It has no synchronization gears
and no crankshaft, which allows carriage, types to shape “almost at will”
the pressure pulse characteristics for specific needs, including achieving
photo-detonation.
8. Efficiency at Low Power
The modern high – power piston engine in automobiles is generally
used with only a 15% average load factor. The efficiency of a 200 KW
gas piston engine falls dramatically when used at 20 KW because of high
vacuum depressurization needed in the intake manifold, which vacuum
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 14
15. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
become less as the power produced by the engine increases. Photo
detonation engines do not need intake vacuum as they intake all the air
available and mainly for this reason, efficiency stays high even at low
engine power.
The development of a photo detonation engine may provide a
means to avoid that low – power – efficiency penalty, may be more
environment friendly as it will require low octane additive – free gasoline
or diesel fuel. May be multifuel compatible, including direct hydrogen
combustion and may offer reduction in the overall propulsion system
weight, size, maintenance and cost.
9. Advantageous and Disadvantageous
Advantageous:
1. Simplicity and small size.
2. Zero vibration because the engine is perfectly balanced.
3. Faster acceleration without a flywheel.
4. Higher torque at lower rpm.
5. Nearly oil free operation.
6. Less Noise
7. Complete flexibility to operate completely submerged or in any
orientation even upside down.
8. Fewer moving parts for less wear and tear.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 15
16. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
9. It increases the fuel efficiency.
10.It can run on different kinds of fuel.
Disadvantageous
The design of Quasiturbine engine is typically built of aluminium
and cast iron, which expand and contract by different degrees when
exposed to heat leading to some incidence of leakage.
The Quasiturbine engine is still in its infancy. The engine is not
used in any real world application. It is still in its prototype phase.
Central Polytechnic College, TVPM PAGE NO- 16
17. QUASI TURBINE ENGINE
10. Conclusion
In the future, however, you will likely see the Quasiturbine used in
more than just your car. Because the central engine area is voluminous
and requires no central shaft, it can accommodate generators, propellers
and other output devices, making it an ideal engine to power chain saws,
powered parachutes, snowmobiles, air compressors, ship propulsion
systems and electric power plants.
