Earnest Chatterton ( the head of the piston engine division of Napier) patented the Simplic 2 stoke engine as an efficient, simple and light engine. It has no cooling system, being cooled by the air it takes in around the outside of the cylinder. I have had to make serious modifications to the design to make it out of a Briggs lawnmower engine, but I hope to get it to run with a carburator, to demonstrate the basic principles of the Simplic engine. There is more info availible on the Insulated Pulse engine website by Dave Schouweiler, he has re-printed some info on the Simplic, with permission of the publisher. Thanks for your interest.
