POMPANO BEACH, FL, December 3, 2013. Cyclone Power
Technologies Inc. (OTCQB: CYPW), developer of the all-fuel,
clean-tech Cyclone Engine, announced today that it has added to its
technical consulting and advisory team Dr. Yeong E.
Kim, professor and Group Leader of the Nuclear and
Many-Body Theory Group at Purdue University.
Dr. Kim is a nuclear physicist who has authored or co-authored
over 200 scientific journal publications during his career. He
received his Ph.D. in 1963 from the University of California,
Berkeley, followed by a postdoctoral position at Oak Ridge National
Laboratory. Dr. Kim is currently Director of Purdue Center for
Sensing Science and Technology (CSST), Group Leader of Purdue
Nuclear and Many-Body Theory Group, and Professor of Physics at
Purdue University. His main area of research has been theoretical
nuclear physics, including the practical achievability of
low energy nuclear reactions (LENR), or cold
fusion. Dr. Kim has published widely on this subject, as well as
condensed matter physics, atomic, molecular and optical physics,
nuclear astrophysics, and quantum statistical mechanics. Since
1978, he served on advisory committees for numerous government
agencies and international conferences covering diverse topics of
nuclear physics. He has been a Fellow of the American Physical
Society since 1977.
Christopher Nelson, President of Cyclone, stated: "We are truly
honored to have someone of Dr. Kim's incredible credentials and
immense understanding of the nuclear sciences join us at Cyclone.
We would also like to thank Nick Connor of The Energy Trust LLC of
Indiana for his vision and hard work in bringing us together."
"Like much of the public, we have many questions about low
energy nuclear reactions and want to make sure we have the best
person on our team help us evaluate its viability. If such low-cost
heat producing technology can ultimately be commercialized, we
believe it will require integration with a Cyclone Engine -
the same compact, high-efficiency external heat engine which can
more immediately run on natural gas or virtually
any other fuel to cogenerate electricity and heat
for a home or business. For such a possibility we owe it to
our current and future shareholders to be prepared and well
educated,” Mr. Nelson continued.
Dr. Kim stated: "I am very pleased to join Cyclone's team. A
growing percentage of the scientific community today is accepting
evidence of anomalous heat effects occurring within low energy
nuclear reactions. I believe this acceptance will speed-up
experimentation in this field, with the goal of better
understanding and controlling these reactions. If that is
accomplished, I see the Cyclone Engine as being a major component
in the next phase of product
commercialization."
Cyclone is currently working with the U.S. Army /
TARDEC to develop a similar engine system to serve as an
auxiliary power unit (APU) for military vehicles. The Company plans
to start manufacturing its 10kW Waste Heat Engine
(WHE-DR) in early 2014, which it expects to serve the micro-grid
waste-to-power market worldwide. Automotive applications for the
powerful, clean burning Cyclone Engine are also being planned.
About Cyclone Power Technologies
Cyclone Power Technologies is the developer of
the award-winning Cyclone Engine - an all-fuel,
clean-tech engine with the power and versatility
to run everything from waste energy electric generators and solar
thermal systems to cars, trucks and locomotives. Invented by
company founder and Chairman Harry Schoell, the patented Cyclone
Engine is an eco-friendly external combustion
engine, ingeniously designed to achieve high thermal efficiencies
through a compact heat-regenerative process, and to run on
virtually any fuel - including bio-diesels,
syngas or solar - while emitting
fewer greenhouse gases and irritating pollutants into the air. The
Cyclone Engine was recognized by Popular Science Magazine
as the Invention of the Year for 2008, and was
presented with two Society of Automotive Engineers' AEI
Tech Awards. Additionally, Cyclone was named
Environmental Business of the Year by the Broward
County (Florida) Environmental Protection Department. For more
