Several Companies with New technologies Coming Online
Nov 15th
These different cards are coming online that are using, individually, some of the smartest efficent technologies available.
#1, the Fuel Vapor Car, utilizing ancient vaporization technology to fully convert liquid gasoline into a gaseous form. Its a misnomer that gas is a gas, its not, its a liquid. On gaseous gasoline explodes, therefore injecting liquid, no matter how fine the mist is clearly obsurb. With vaporization the entirety of the liquid fuel is converted to a gaseous form. This requires a completely novel injection system, typically referred to as direct injection. The Fuel Vapor Car averages around 100 MPG, and that just making the engine use fuel correctly; what if the fuel is enhanced?
#2, the Scorpion Supercar, is using hydrogen fuel enhancement technology. The very same technology that is talked about on www.waterfuelconverters.com, is being implemented by Ronn Motor Company. They will use onboard electrolyzers, to produce hydrogen, to increase the flame velocity of gasoline as it burns in the engine. The increased flame velocity all the timing of the engine to be advanced, and the compression ratios to be increased. The faster flame velocity narrows the combustion timeframe, allowing more of the fuel to combust at the optimum crank angle before the TDC mark. This translated into a directly proportional increase in power output; if 2.5% of fuel combusts after TDC, but is not burning before, then the engine will produce 2.5% more energy.
#3, the Chevy Volt, is utilizing the most intelligent form of the hybrid design. The gasoline engine has no business being directly connected to the vehicles transmission. Variance in its RPMs has a negative impact on efficiency, therefore the RPM must be fixed at the optimum value. The only way to do this is not have it connected to the drive train. The engine, in the Volt, will be producing electricity at the most efficient RPM value. As a result when the gasoline engine is operating the MPG is theoretically maximized with regard to efficient electricity production. The combination of how the vehicle will produce electricty, and the full electric drivetrain results in a stage 2 hybrid vehicle that will get more gas mileage than anything previously on the road made by a major auto manufacturer.
