“Efficiency
Management System” As I mentioned on the Fuel Efficiency Page, to improve the efficiency
of the internal combustion engine, we need to look for ways of doing the
following: ·
Evaporate
liquid fuel as much as possible. Because it’s the only thing that
combusts. This reduces the waste of liquid fuel. ·
Combust
completely (or start moving closer to it,) without increasing temperature. ·
Reduce the
temperature of the process, which
will decrease Nitrogen emissions and inherently be more efficient. (Notice I
said the “process” – making a bigger cooling system
isn’t what I’m talking about here. I mean not creating the heat
in the first place.) ·
Reduce the
amount of carbon in the process – it creates CO2. ·
Stop using fuel
to extinguish the flame. ·
Use fuel when
you need it and don’t use fuel when you don’t –
automatically. Without making this sound too easy, I am
developing an Efficiency Management System that, using different techniques,
work together to accomplish these tasks. It does so by using the following
practices: ·
Cold Fuel Vapor
generation (More vapor gasoline, less liquid gas, and safer than other
methods) along with better use of fuel vapors naturally created in the fuel
tank environment. ·
On-demand
Hydrogen and Oxygen from water using pulsed electrolysis. (H2, O2, and
mono-atomic Hydrogen and mono-atomic Oxygen.) Part Science, part theory, part
art, and ALL REAL. Even though it is a fuel itself (and a perfect one at
that,) it is my opinion that it acts as a catalyst for fuel combustion more
than anything else. The addition of mono-atomic Hydrogen during the
combustion process results in a positive outcome that can only be guessed at
how it works. This is probably the number one reason it isn’t being
used en-mass. Scientists, nor I, can tell you EXACTLY how or why it works.
But it does. ·
Water
injection. Water injection has been used for over 50 years and is well
documented as a fuel supplement used in airplanes in WW2. It does a few
things: It massively expands, creating more expansion to drive the piston. It
cools the flame during combustion by absorbing heat to create steam from
liquid water, which in-turn means we don’t need to use fuel to put out
the flame. (This is over-simplified on purpose for this section.) It creates
more Hydrogen and Oxygen in the process (running steam through a hydro-carbon
based fuel like Methane is the main way to mass manufacture Hydrogen today.)
This makes the process of creating an equation for the combustion process
much more difficult to figure out. Again with the explanation problem… ·
A
microprocessor based electronics system to operate and make these individual
systems work as a team and seeing that fuel is there when needed and only
when needed. The method is different for carbureted models than fuel
injected, but the result is the same. Working with current Electronic Control
Systems built in to cars can make this even more powerful.
