The high-efficiency hybrid cycle (HEHC) is a new 4-stroke thermodynamic cycle combining elements of the Otto cycle, Diesel cycle, Atkinson cycle and Rankine cycle.[1]
HEHC engines[]
The 3rd generation design of the LiquidPiston Engine currently in development is the only engine currently designed around the HEHC. It is a rotary combustion engine.[2]
