Could a Crower cycle be useful in marine propulsion?

[QUOTE=TSLexi;121169]Couldn’t you use steam cylinder oil, so the steam won’t cause the oil to gunk up everything?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, right. Every 3rd revolution you squirt steam cylinder oil in the thing … think about it.

And for the rest of the believers, consider that the exhaust from the dino power stroke carries out most of the heat of combustion so that the squirt of water just cools the cylinder and wastes time before another power stroke can occur. When the water turns to steam it just removes heat from the structure and the newly compressed charge air, it how can it produce more power than it takes to move that water to the cylinder and to compress the charge air enough to vaporize the water … thermodynamic magic? perpetual motion?
