Revision as of 00:33, 25 February 2024
About
- 2-strokes have 3-9 hp at 50 cc. See cc to hp - [1]
 - Ex - Stihl MS 660 is 7 hp and 91 cc
 - 1 hp for $25 for simple small engines.
 - 1000 hp are $25k for the largest tractor in the world.
 
50 cc 2 stroke
- Only 1.3 hp? $50 about. [2]
 
Large
- JD 9 series engine, 14.l, 450 hp - around $30k [3]
 
50 cc with Electric Start
- $209 -[4]
 
3hp
- $40 - [5]
 
6.5 hp
- For the $/hp ratio, the 212 cc range appears slightly better than the 16 hp range. 420 cc for 2 - cheaper than any 440 cc.
 
Predator HF $150 212 cc - [6]. Performance review is solid [7]
GX160 clone Walmart $134 [8]. Elect. start $70 more [9]
Walmart $144 7.5 hp 212 cc Electric Start [10]- With electric start - 212 cc - $170 [11]
 - Honda GX160 clone - $160 - 6.5 hp [12]
 
20 hp Range
Selection
OSE's 2020 choice for an engine is the Poulan 19 hp x4 for 74 hp - [13]
Gas
The threshold for relatively inexpensive engines is 19 hp.
- 27 hp - $980 - $36/hp - [14]. And needs muffler.
 - 24 hp - $870 - $36/hp [15]
 - 22 hp - Briggs - $29/hp - [16]
 - 20 hp - Kohler $700 - $35/hp + muffler - [17]
 - 19 hp Poulan - - $20.5/hp - $390 - [18]
 - 16 hp - $350 - Poulan - [19]. No gas pump, gravity feed gas. But, doesn't come with muffler. 
 Has 15A charging. Muffler - [20] 
16hp - $370 - Duromax, $23/hp - [21]- 7 hp - $159 - $22/hp - but no electric start - [22]
 - 18hp Duromax $18/hp - has muffler, but not charging 
- such as for a fan - [23] 
420 cc
Diesel
- 30 hp Kubota $5000 - $166/hp [27]
 - 33 hp Kubota - $6500 [28]
 - 65 HP - $6300 - $100/hp [29]
 - 200 hp - $55/HP - $11k - Cummins - [30]
 - 360 HP Mack used - $10/HP - $3600
 - 300 hp [31] $7500 [32]
 
Considerations
- Until an open source engine becomes a reality, engine repair is expensive. $50/hr, easily comes to the new engine price for the $300 gas engine. This indicates that small engines are essentially disposable goods.
 - For the large diesel engine, parts are expensive.
 - Until the advent of the open source diesel engine, engine costs remain 10x as high as they should be.
 - Until the OS engine, disposable engines are a suboptimal but acceptable strategy to keep costs of engine systems low.
 - It is an immediate priority of OSE to develop open source small engines, $11B market (see Market Size) and larger ones are more like 200 billion
 
Engine Links
- 500 &U 1000 hour lifetime for small engines - [33]
 - 2000-4000 year life of car engines [34] - 150k miles
 - Tractor engines - 5-10k hours [35]
 - Pellet-fired stirling engine buggy - see PDF file
 - Several links to various engine types including Sterling, Wankel, Steam, etc. [36].
