Hi,

I suppose it is a double tandem compound using poppet valves like the Corris but without their valves.  Very clever, I like it.

Take care Tony.

Bonjour Charlie,
Just amazing indeed, do you know if it is a "Corliss" type steam machine ?

Here is the description from the creator:

"two cylinder compound steam engine

Cylinder drilling for the high pressure cylinder: 12 mm
Low pressure: 16 mm   Hub: 20 mm
Machine length: 23 cm  Width: 18 cm
Max pressure: 2 bars    Min pressure: 0,3 bars

In the video the machine is running on 0,3 bars compressed air."

Great model but definitely not a corliss.
