This is my shockwave engine. It's realistic new type engine and it's on prototype level in real life.

@therocketeerI thought the same, although at first I thought it looked a bit like a tesla turbine :/

It's kinda like a wankel, but uses the energy more efficiently.
Round of applause for the guy, but the big question has to be asked:
Could it actually produce enough torque to move a car? I doubt it.
Then again, I'm sure a company who manufactures motorcycles (probably Honda, they seem to've been obsessed with energy efficiency for a while now) will implement it into a motorbike. The lightweight design of a motorbike could work well with this engine, as it would need less torque.

At a guess, a combination of a 2 stroke engine and a whirring noise. Now that would sound cool. >:D

Nice work, but yours doesn't actually work that much like the real thing, from what I read in the article on it that you posted.
I will work on my own prototype. -
formatting fail :P

WhoopsI forgot mention that this is a prototype, too. I read about this from tiede (=science) magazine and thought that no-one had built one.
