The invention can be used in designing complete autonomous power installations for stationary applications(up to 5MW) and for mobile applications (up to 1MW).
According to the proposed principle and methods for performing self-sustained power installations (fig.1), the working fluid (water,water-based fluids, bio-hydraulic oils, etc.
A group of specially desinged batteries, a robotic arm and new sensor networks are joined to on-site wind generation or other renewable energy generation method that will allow grain elevators in small communities to create affordable, reliable power available to their central city business locations.
In the last five years we have seen new technology come on the scene touted as a revolution in security. This new technology can peer through our clothing for contraband (Guns, Knives, and Explosives etc).
Electric motors used in electric vehicles are not efficient at all speeds, but instead are only efficient at a narrow range of speeds. It turns out that electric motors have what’s called an efficiency motor curve that shows a graphical representation of how efficient a motor is different speeds.
Environmental impacts associated with the production and consumption of energy include global climate change, acid rain, hazardous air pollution, smog, radioactive waste, and habitat destruction. The nation’s heavy reliance on fossil fuels – primarily imported petroleum – poses major concerns for energy security. Therefore,
The design of conventional Otto-cycle engines (automotive and beyond) has changed dramatically over the last 100 years. There have been leaps in efficiency but with each advancement it has become harder to improve upon the platform. Instead of making small gains by tweaking the individual components,
High pressure gas cylinders must by law at all times be secured by strap or chain to prevent them from falling over and breaking the valves and becoming deadly missiles.
This will be a car that floats on air from negative magnets on the bottom of the car and positive magnets on the front of the car to pull it and negative magnets on the back of the car to push it.
One of the biggest problems people have is keeping their outdoor garbage cans from blowing around...sending them out into the street and leaving them damaged.
The Trash/Garbadge Can Bracket helps keep cans in place. Made of durable plastic,
Yes I know this is NASA but this is really simple. Efficiency is better! Diesel engines have been around for 100 years. They have improved but are reaching a point of diminishing return. Their fundamental process is the same – combustion in a cylinder that pushes a piston.
