A split -cycle aircraft engine includes a crankshaft rotatable about a crankshaft axis. A power piston is slidably received within a power cylinder and is operatively connected to the crankshaft such that the power piston reciprocates through an expansion stroke and an exhaust stroke during a single rotation of the crankshaft. A compression piston is slidably received within a compression cylinder and is operatively connected to the crankshaft such that the compression piston reciprocates through an intake stroke and a compression stroke during a single, rotation of the crankshaft. A gas crossover passage operatively interconnects the compression cylinder and the power cylinder. An air reservoir is operatively connected to the gas crossover passage by a reservoir passage. The air reservoir is selectively operable to receive and deliver compressed air. The engine is mounted to an aircraft and the air reservoir is disposed within the aircraft.A split -cycle aircraft engine includes a crankshaft rotatable about a crankshaft axis.

L'invention concerne un moteur à cycle divisé comprenant un vilebrequin rotatif autour d'un axe. Un piston de puissance est monté de manière coulissant dans un cylindre de puissance et est fonctionnellement relié au vilebrequin de sorte qu'il effectue un mouvement alternatif passant par un temps d'expansion et un temps d'échappement pendant une seule rotation du vilebrequin. Un piston de compression est monté de manière coulissante dans un cylindre de compression et est fonctionnellement relié au vilebrequin de sorte qu'il effectue un mouvement alternatif passant par un temps d'expansion et un temps d'échappement pendant une seule rotation du vilebrequin. Un passage gazeux d'interconnexion est relié fonctionnellement au cylindre de compression et au cylindre de puissance. Un réservoir d'air est fonctionnellement relié au passage gazeux d'interconnexion par un passage de réservoir qui fonctionne sélectivement afin d'admettre et de distribuer l'air comprimé. Le moteur est monté sur un aéronef, le réservoir d'air étant disposé dans cet aéronef.
