POMPANO BEACH, FL, November 26, 2013. Cyclone Power
Technologies Inc. (OTCQB: CYPW) announced that it has
successfully completed an on-sight inspection by its customer,
Phoenix Power Group, of the performance and durability testing
being conducted on its next generation Waste Heat Engine, called
the WHE-DR. The Company has released new video of the WHE-DR
running on heat recycled from Phoenix's Micro Dry-Steam Generator
(MDSG) during this important two-day assessment and third-party
verification meeting.
Cyclone's WHE-DR is designed to convert waste heat from various
commercial, municipal and agricultural devices into mechanical
power. The Phoenix MDSG is one such technology that produces
thermal energy from the clean combustion of used motor oil. The
integrated WHE-DR and MDSG system is meant to produce 7 to 10 kW of
electricity in addition to all the heating requirements of garages,
car dealerships and similar facilities. This
cogeneration unit is expected to reduce energy
costs by shaving peak electrical demand year-round, and creating
space heating during cold months as a process by-product. Phoenix's
partners control approximately 70% of the used motor oil furnace
market in the U.S., with over 60,000 units in the field.
Thomas Thillen, Phoenix's President, stated, "We're very pleased
with the initial performance of the new model WHE-DR. Cyclone has
made a major leap forward in the engine’s development - it is
running considerably smoother, quieter and longer than we've seen
previously. We feel confident in gearing up now to commence our
pilot programs next year."
Christopher Nelson, Cyclone's President, stated: "We echo our
customer's sentiment in being quite pleased with the progress of
the WHE-DR. We’re moving ahead steadily with our development
partners at Ohio State University, and aiming to
complete initial durability testing by the end of this year in
order to shift into limited scale manufacturing mode soon
thereafter."
