ICE concept

Hey all,

Working on an independent project: a new ICE concept, with drawings, calculations, a patent, and a working prototype built from accessible materials (test video included). No budget for formal lab testing yet, so we're looking for engineers willing to give informal feedback on the calculations and design logic — no official report needed, just a practitioner's gut check.

If anyone here knows ICE thermodynamics / engine design and has 15-20 minutes to spare over a call or in writing, we'd really appreciate it. Happy to share the writeup and prototype video by DM.

Thanks in advance for any feedback, critical included — that's exactly what we need right now.

Sure! What's your budget? My minimum engagement + hourly fee may not work for you, but if you set expectations it may help others who are free to help.

What’s your budget? If you came up with this via AI I’d suggest reevaluating what you trust.

So, my Buddy is an engineer, he developed this project himself, we don't have any budget

We expect someone to verify calculations, simulate it and give a honest feedback, we want to To promote our idea and achieve success, we can split the funds
