    Abstract: An improved heat engine employing a dual-component working fluid and configured to generate internal heat from one component of the working fluid that heats the other component through the physical contact between them such that together with the addition of external heat, the engine advantageously yields enhanced work extraction efficiency through separate, parallel expansion of each of the working fluids.

    Abstract: A method and system for modulating vapor and liquid fractions of a cycling liquid-vapor fluid operating within its phase transition envelope by creating forced oscillating heat transfer between liquid and vapor fractions of the cycling stream. A liquid stream segment is expansion cooled and brought into thermal communication with a vapor stream segment. The contact with the expansion-cooled liquid enables intermolecular forces to drive condensation and release condensation heat at a condensation temperature higher than the temperature of the expansion-cooled stream segment. The resulting temperature gradient enables the expansion-cooled segment held at constant volume to capture the condensation heat and isochorically vaporize into a vapor stream segment that again is forced to condense so as to form an oscillating thermal cycle within the cycling liquid-vapor fluid.
