"Active" generator for Electric Car

This system is a pneumatic electric hybrid. It is a self sustained velocity /pressure cycle that will produce fuel less electricity for unlimited range while charging itself.

From "Start" the battery powers the mapping computers / control boards. The mapping computer allows current from the battery to rotate number 13 (electric motor).

A Fully Variable Valve in an Optimized 2-Stroke Diesel Engine

Future engines must meet tough fuel economy and emissions standards without sacrificing power. Variable valve actuation (VVA) can help, but current engines with VVA all have camshafts, so they are not fully variable. LIM Technology has invented a pneumatically actuated, digitally managed valve which is fully variable and requires no camshaft.
