a hybrid car are pretty easy‚ but the complexity comes with comparing them to all gasoline cars. The main aspect of a hybrid car is the engine. In normal gasoline cars there is only one engine‚ but in hybrid cars there is one gasoline engine and one electric engine. The two engines work in harmony; if the electric engine runs out of power the gasoline engine charges it. This process saves money on gas. Typically‚ a hybrid car get around 48-60 miles per gallon. This is a lot of mileage compared

or in this case‚ speed from your engine. The simplest method for boosting speed is installing a force induction system that consists of either a turbocharger or a supercharger. Most turbochargers and superchargers can be bolted on to your motor with minimal to moderate modifications. While both types of systems can produce significant amounts of horsepower‚ turbochargers are the better choice based on extent of horsepower

environment friendly‚ No cancer causing particulates‚ less carbon monoxide & hydro carbon emissions‚ less ground level ozone contamination & Green House gases effects. CNG is much safer than Gasoline‚ diesel fuels or LPG. CNG reduces engine wear‚ more than doubling engine life because CNG burns clean & leaves no carbon deposits. CNG offers lower maintenance cost. It is a dry gaseous fuel & does not dilute the lubricating oil‚ thus saving on oil filters & oil changing. Intervals between tune ups for

process or simply identified as the conversion of ‘green oil’ extracted from natural sources to glycerin was invented as early as in 1853 by scientists‚ which was many years before the conventional diesel engine was found. To add to its glory‚ Rudolf Diesel’s prime model on four stroke diesel engine ran on peanut oil on 10th August 1893 during it’s limelight show to public. Hence‚ to mark this historical incident and one would highlight as a co-incident of gifting bio fuel‚ the date 10th August is declared

compressed-air cars is the lack of torque produced by the "engines" and the cost of compressing the air. Recently several companies have started to develop compressed air cars‚ although none have been released to the public‚ or have been tested by third parties. Technology Engines Compressed air cars are powered by motors fueled with compressed air‚ which is stored in a tank at high pressure such as 30 MPa (4500 psi or 300 bar). Rather than driving engine pistons with an ignited fuel-air mixture‚ compressed

America’s Foreign Oil Dependency: What are the options to stop this crisis? For Professor Sharon Mitchener From August 11‚ 2006 BUS 531 Research Proposal Abstract The topic of this paper is America’s foreign oil dependency. The purpose of this paper is to suggest how might America completely destroy or at least greatly mitigate its dependency on crude oil to fuel Americans’ cars‚ especially foreign crude oil.

awareness of fuel efficiency‚ as many will further relate that if fuel efficiency can be increased‚ then the emission can be further improved‚ as well as to reduce wastage. Many automobile makers has since then began development of fuel efficient engine in order to make a stand‚ and consequently lead to the trend of Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV). 2 Problem Statement However‚ emission is only one environmental factor as there is other factor which bothers a driver financial aspect‚ the fuel
