Green Engine seminar report.DOC (Size: 107 KB / Downloads: 3197) ABSTRACT The green engine is one of the most interesting discoveries of the new millennium. It has got some unique features that were used for the first time in the making of engines. This engine is a piston less one with features like sequential variable compression ratio‚ direct air intake‚ direct fuel injection‚ multi-fuel usage etc. The efficiency of this engine is high when compared to the contemporary engines and also the exhaust

Introduction to Engine Performance – Study Guide ©2005 Melior‚ Inc. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction The engine is the power plant of a vehicle. Automotive engines have gone through tremendous changes since the automobile was first introduced in the 1880s‚ but all combustion engines still have three requirements that must be met to do their job of providing power – air‚ fuel‚ and ignition. The mixture of air and fuel must be compressed

Koenigsegg’s New Cam-Less Engine February 13‚ 2012 by Matt Jalopnik reports on an upcoming supercar from Swedish boutique automaker Koenigsegg that will feature a twin-turbo V8 engine whole valves are actuated without camshafts. Partnering with Swedish engineering firm Cargine‚ Koenigsegg plans to develop a valvetrain system whereby the valves are operated using pneumatic pressure alone. F1 car engines have used pneumatic valve springs since the Renault turbo engines of the mid-’80s‚ but always

Steam engines were the first engine type to see widespread use. They were first invented by Thomas Newcomen in 1705‚ and James Watt (who we remember each time we talk about "60-watt light bulbs" and the such) made big improvements to steam engines in 1769. Steam engines ¬powered all early locomotives‚ steam boats and factories‚ and therefore acted as the foundation of the Industrial Revolution. In this article‚ we’ll learn exactly how steam engines work.74 Steam Engine Operation The

HIGH ALBEDO HEAT REFLECTIVE PAINT Sunsheetal® is based on polyurethane-acrylic blended elastomeric aqueous polymers. It is a high thermal emittance ceramic coating useful in the world of industrial and commercial buildings‚ as a roof coating system that has the ability to reflect the visible‚ infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths of the sun‚ thereby reducing heat transfer to the building. Sunsheetal® is defined as a cool roof coating by virtue of its ability to radiate absorbed‚ or non-reflected

Understand and observe the concept of Heat Transfer‚ by measuring the temperature distribution for steady state conduction of energy through a specific efficient unit. • Understand the Fourier Law of heat conduction and the usage of its equation in determining the rate of heat flow via solid materials. II. Theory : The Fourier Rate Equation: When a plane section of ∆x and a constant area A maintains a temperature difference ∆T‚ then the heat transfer rate per unit time by conduction

COMBUSTION ENGINES 6.1 Introduction Perhaps the best-known engine in the world is the reciprocating internal combustion (IC) engine. Virtually every person who has driven an automobile or pushed a power lawnmower has used one. By far the most widely used IC engine is the spark-ignition gasoline engine‚ which takes us to school and work and on pleasure jaunts. Although others had made significant contributions‚ Niklaus Otto is generally credited with the invention of the engine and with the
