Today‚ connecting rods are best known through their use in I.C. piston engines‚ such as automotive engines. These are different design from earlier forms of connecting rods‚ used in steam engines and steam locomotives. It connects the piston to the crankshaft

Hybrid Cars Hybrid cars which use at least two form of onboard energy to get impulse are popular subject because of decreasing oil sources. A hybrid car has a traditional internal combustion engine and fuel tank as well as one or more electric motors and a battery pack. There is a problem that it will be affect the transportation in the future. Nowadays‚ most of people have cars which use oil as fuel. This situation has been causing to used up oil sources. Hence people are looking for different

Classifications of the Hybrid Electric Vehicles: The hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) are the special types of vehicles that make use of two things together‚ i.e. conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) and an electric propulsion system‚ which together help in achieving fuel efficiency as compared to any other vehicle. The degree of efficiency and improvement provided by the HEVs depend on the degree and the type of propulsion systems they make use of. The engineers have succeeded in adding

electric car is powered by an electric motor instead of a gasoline engine. The electric motor gets energy from a controller‚ which regulates the amount of power transmitted throughout the vehicle‚ based on the driver’s use of an accelerator pedal. The electric motors give electric cars instant torque‚ creating a strong and smooth acceleration pattern. Electric cars are about three times more efficient than cars with an internal combustion engine. A pure-battery electric car uses energy stored in the rechargeable

Honda is a Japan based company and is the world’s largest manufacturer of motorcycles as well as the world’s manufacturer of internal combustion engines (motor vehicles) producing more than 14 million internal combustion engines each year. Honda’s trademark had been registered in Japan since November 13‚ 1953 it was not until a decade later that the motorcycle and automobile company filed for trademark registration in the United

A schematic diagram of DLR scramjet model [7-9] is described in Fig. 1.The air enters into combustion chamber at M=2.0 whereas hydrogen fuel (H2) is injected parallel to the air stream at M =1.0. The width and height of the combustor section at the entrance is 40 mm and 50 mm respectively which is then diverged at an angle of 3ο on the upper wall of the combustor. The strut is 32 mm long and 6mm height which are located at a distance of 77 mm from the entrance. The boundary conditions of Waidmann

consumer should not only be concerned with the purchase price‚ but with the cost of repairs as well. The initial cost of gasoline powered cars is around 75% lower than a hybrid for these reasons: hybrids have very expensive batteries‚ a different engine design which complicates manufacturing‚ and they are basically mobile computers that make them difficult to repair without special training. Regardless of which type of vehicle you own‚ many people think that the initial cost of a vehicle is bad
