The present invention relates to a two strokes per cycle Scotch Yoke engine that completes four power strokes per revolution per pair of pistons/cylinders by using both sides of each piston as a combustion chamber. This doubles the power to weight ratio over previous scotch yoke engines and quadruples the power to weight ratio over conventional 4 stroke cycle engines. The present invention is capable of operating in and withstanding the forces of either deflagration (subsonic) and pulse detonation (supersonic) cycles, and is capable of homogeneous charge compression ignition. The present invention can also be an internal/external combustion gas/steam hybrid. The present invention can operate under constant volume or constant pressure cycles as well as most thermal cycles of operation (EG the Otto and Diesel cycle). The present invention works best when using a modified Humphrey cycle to achieve homogeneous charge compression ignition pulse detonation engine using constant volume combustion.
