The Fibonacci Engine (FE) is a prime mover offset rotary vapor expander heat engine, which converts heat from just about any source into rotary shaft power. The rotating shaft can then power an electric generator. Its efficiencies will prove better than any other Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system existing today. Its sliding vanes function concurrently as powerful levers,
valves, and self-adjusting seals.
Product Advantages
The FE is able to instantly respond to load change demands, as well as temperature variations caused by a variable BTU output from a waste heat source. Therefore, a constant RPM can be maintained for effective electricity generation, even using waste heat. This is a major achievement.
Design Key
The FE design is based on a mathematical ratio we see throughout creation, known as the Fibonacci Ratio (1 to 1.618 . . . .).
The application of that ratio into the FE design provides the FE the ability to capture the powerful expansion pressure of a specialized heated fluid which goes to vapor phase at about 90℉ (Honeywell’s ORC, Genetron 245f).
Self-Adjusting Seal System (Patent Pending)
The FE’s self-adjusting seal system effectively contains that gas pressure and converts the vapor expansion force into shaft torque. The rotating shaft can drive an electric generator, which provides electricity for a home, a business, or can augment a cogeneration system in a large factory.
Technology Validation
Several hundred bench test runs were done in 2006. The test results indicated an extrapolated figure of 85% turbine efficiency.
