Revolutionizing On-Demand Electricity Generation
The World’s First Generator with a Software Crankshaft
The Galin Engine converts heat energy to electricity.
Unlike conventional internal combustion engines, it eliminates the crankshaft mechanism and replaces it with a "software crankshaft" that uses intelligent software control. This approach provides improved efficiency (especially under varying loads) compactness, and reliability for environments where grid access is unavailable (remote locations) or impractical (drones, boats, vehicles).
How it works
The Galin Engine is an internal combustion engine that converts heat energy into electricity. Unlike traditional piston engines, it operates on a rotary vane (scissor action) principle, featuring two shafts with intermeshing vanes that create variable combustion chambers. This design eliminates components like the crankshaft, valves, and camshaft, allowing for direct rotational output and a higher number of power strokes per revolution compared to reciprocating engines.
Markets + Applications
The world is pushed to consuming energy in the form of electricity, from our everyday devices, to producing mechanical shaft power.
The aim of hybrid propulsion is to combine an internal combustion engine and an electric motor efficiently. However, until we rethink the way we couple the engine to the motor we will not achieve maximum possible efficiency of the system designed to convert heat energy from chemical combustion to electrical energy. This is our focus at Galin Engine.
We are designing Galin engine for applications which want to do more with less. Maximise efficiency, get higher power output for the same weight, longer operating time, improved stealthiness.
What could you achieve with a generator or hybrid powertrain that is at least 15% more efficient, 4x lighter, and 4x smaller than what you are using now?
