Modern Steam Engine Concept

Modern steam engines are defined as:


 * Uniflow engine
 * Utilizing modern materials, to reduce or eliminate lubrication requirements
 * Bump valve for simplest design
 * Stationary engine (optimal single speed) for driving hydraulics; just throttle control
 * scalable in units of 5-10 hp
 * Work with Gasifier Burner and Steam Generator

Initial concept: bump-valve uniflow steam engine made from scratch.
