Abstract
The engine has an input system formed with a fluid displacement pump that enables substantially continuous pumping from a low-pressure side to a high-pressure side substantially without any backflow or backpressure pulsations. The output system, in one embodiment, is an output system having a turbine rotation about an axis that is substantially orthogonal to the pressure flow originating from the prime mover. The output system may include a first turbine which provides for the mechanical work output of the engine and a second turbine which feeds back to drive the input system. Any increase in the load to be driven by the first turbine translates into a proportional increase in the drive energy fed back to the input system. In an alternative embodiment, a differential may be used to distribute the output power to a load or back to the input compressor.
