      🔴 What Is Islam?
      🔴 Islam is not just another religion.
      🔵 It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham.
      🔴 Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God.
      🔵 It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone.
      🔴 It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine.
      🌍 The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as:
      📖 { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) 📚
      🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus.
      🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him.

    Another beautiful model Mr. Hansen. The opposed piston design is coming popular again, I have read that some makers are reviewing this design due to it's much better expansion ratio over a single piston giving an improvement in thermal efficiency.
    I hope you have patented your double eccentric linkage system, building a strong, simple linkage has been one of the challenges in opposed piston design.

One thousand horse power and 25% more efficient than all the others and both are cleaner than upcoming emission requirements. Too bad we will never see anything less expensive, less moving parts and double plus today’s fuel economy. Your engine is a masterful design.

      It's a 2 stroke so the cylinder bores will get fuel oil, and the external connecting rod bearings are high end ball bearings that would just need light oiling for long wear. The wrist pin in the piston if bushed would require frequent oil unless they are also roller bearings, which they may be as quiet as it is.

    Opposed piston , the Germans had that in WW2 and Sir that's is a nice job you did explaining it , and have it running . The opposed piston uses less fuel for more power I think that's how it works.

    • @kennethjackson7574
      @kennethjackson7574 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      And the Fairbanks-Morse 1938 series engines- diesel, gasoline, and natural gas. They were made with as many as 20 cylinders. Originally intended for locomotives, since the opposed pistons function as the intake and exhaust there are no valves that can be burned by excessive exhaust back pressure. Most of the American WWII submarines used F-M diesels because the exhaust could be discharged underwater to minimize visible smoke.
