FIELD: engine devices and pumps.
SUBSTANCE: tandem two-stroke engine with a common external combustion chamber (hereinafter tandem engine) represents an assembly consisting of the common external combustion chamber and three identical blocks. One channel connects start valves of each block with an air inlet into common external combustion chamber, and the other channel connects the output of combustion products from the common external combustion chamber to the combustion products intake valves of the power piston of each block of the tandem two-stroke engine. All units are combined in tandem so that geometric axes of their crankshafts are located on one geometric axis, and cranks of each of them are turned relative to each other by one third of crankshaft turn.
EFFECT: higher efficiency of engine operation.
