The Improvement of Automobile Fuel Economy Abstract In today’s society, it has been determined by energy analysts that fuel consumption is increasing at an alarming rate. This is due to the large influx of drivers on the road, and the increase in travel demands. Since energy is not a finite commodity, there have to be certain movements taken to improve the fuel economy in automobiles. Certain technological advances have been discovered, such as reduction in vehicle weight, and improvements

production. Rich conditions result in carbon monoxide production. For this reason catalytic converters are used on an engine’s exhaust. The catalyst material in a cat is in a wire mesh or honeycomb. This allows a high surface area to be exposed to the passing exhaust gasses. The catalyst converts the harmful nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide into nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and oxygen. Catalytic converters work best when warm, so some car manufacturers are putting "pre cats" in the exhaust manifold
In his novel The Chosen, Chaim Potok writes about a boy, Reuven Malter, from Brooklyn who is going through his coming-of-age period and experiences as a Jewish student. Throughout The Chosen, themes of friendships, reaching maturity, and understanding unravel and seep into Reuven Malter’s life. In this period of maturing, some pivotal moments occur, changing Reuven’s view of others and understanding of relationships. In the first couple chapters, Reuven was doing so well with baseball and fit in
For the last couple months i've been searching for a good car that gets good gas mileage. I was tired of driving my 94 chevy c1500 that only gets 12 mpg. I wanted either a 99 honda civic or a 97- 01 honda prelude. I was pretty picky about what car i wanted since i was spending my money on this car. The car had to be a manual, have little to no rust and had to be a 2 door “coupe”. I've always wanted a honda prelude because you don't see very many of them. A nice honda prelude with little rust and
Far across the sparkling blue lies a shimmer of silver. Rustles of waves blow sea breeze into my nose on the warm sand. I crinkle my toes deeper below feeling the warmth of each grain squeeze in between. The sun beats down sinking into my pores; soaking up the warmth. Back behind me I can hear children laugh as they run across the sand with their parents chasing right on their tails. The palm trees sway with the slight breeze and the rustle brings a feeling of peacefulness and relaxation. This
Objective: The objective of this laboratory was to theoretically calculate the moment of inertia of a disk and a ring and then to verify the moment of inertia for both objects through experiment. This laboratory shows that while the theoretical is not within the uncertainty of the experimental, both values are extremely similar to each other. Data and Analysis: Data: Table 1: The Angular Acceleration of No Ring and Ring Trial No Ring Ring 5g 4.57 ± 0.005 rad/s2 1.32 ± 0.005 rad/s2 10g 13.16 ± 0.005
The stories “Eveline” by James Joyce and “Miss Brill” by Katherine Mansfield are ultimately about hope and despair and how the circumstances one is presented and how one reacts can shape the course of a person’s life. The women in the stories are both heartbroken and stuck in the lives they are in. One of them has been overtaken sadness and now must accept the knowledge that her life will always consist of loneliness and despair due to the outside circumstances that are out of her control and the
make a run for it. Known What You Know: Your buddy's car is classic, and I'm sure he would want to make more than an educated guess. I've done a little investigating to help you out a bit. I took a torque wrench to the motor, and resists it resists aproximately 46 ft*lbs of torque at the crankshaft. After the compression bleeds down this number is reduced to 38 ft*lbs. The cars rear differential has a 3.73 to 1 gear ratio and a manual transmission with a 3.35 to 1 ratio in first gear. The
the wheels without any reduction in speed, the vehicle would literally run away! In order to reduce the speed from the high revolutions of the engine to more manageable speeds in the road wheels, reduction gears are employed. It is also to do with torque. For example, a small very fast
Define and explain the 6 standard simple machines (Wheel/Axle, Screw, Inclined Plane, Lever, Pulley (or Block and Tackle), and Wedge) Throughout history people have made devices to make work easier. The six simple machines are the most notable advances. These simple machines are the wheel and axle, the lever, the inclined plane, the pulley, the screw, and the wedge. These machines make work easier and more efficient. The wheel and axle is the first simple machine I will talk about. The axle is
Fishing contains a wide variety of physics. when you cast you are using projectile motion and rotational motion. when you hook a fish it will often use the drag from the current agenst you. Immagine draging a fish through a swift current. You deal with the tention of your line, and the friction of the line through the guides. you also deal with friction when you use a drag. Reels One of the key components of your fishing gear is the reel. http://www.eangler.com/eangler/proshop/reels.asp
needs machines that have great power, some of the applications only need power; worm drives have a good power output due to their mechanical advantage which is equal to the number of teeth on the output drive. Coupled with a high-power motor the torque that can be produced from the worm drive is far superior to any other type of gearing. As a consequence, the forces in the worm drive will be quite high. The Bonfiglioli worm drive has been made from as fewer components as possible, the driving components
The Physics of Bridges The design of the bridge superstructure is based on a set of loading conditions which the component or element must withstand. A bridge engineer must take into account a wide variety of loads which may vary based on the duration of the load (permanent or temporary), the direction of the load (vertical, longitudinal, etc.), and the effect of the load (shear, bending, torsion, etc.). In order to form a consistent basis for design, organizations like AASHTO, American
engine after the head is back on, the tools to take apart and put the head back together with. A torque wrench will definitely be needed in this process. You will also need someone or if you're going to buy a laptop for tuning, the app you need to download for the tuning process and you will need to ship your ECU chip to get flashed and that basically just makes the engine relearn the power and torque of it. If you do not do this you will have worse gas mileage and just the same power as you did before
Angular momentum is basically an object’s resistance to a change in rotation. To change an object’s motion, force must be applied, since objects in motion tend to stay in motion. This force is called torque when relating to rotational motion (Torque = Force x Perpendicular Distance from Axis). When torque is applied, the angular momentum increases, then decreases due to friction. But on the ice, there is barely any friction, and the skater can sustain their momentum for long periods of time. Rotational
The big day was finally here. The town of Rongstar was roaring with migrants from all over the underworld. For almost a whole year both vampire and humans have been waiting for this moment to commence. It was a contest between vampires and humans. Unlike any other, the fate of the universe counted on this fight, for it is in this fight, which will determine which race will rule the entire universe. Both sides have been eagerly waiting. A full moon appeared, setting ablaze the night sky with a
the torque your vehicle motor makes and applying it to the drive shaft which leads to another gearbox called a differential that turns the tires to move the vehicle. This is just one simple application. The majority of gearboxes are found in industrial applications. Gearbox Purposes Gearboxes are used to transfer the power from a motor to some type of machine while reducing or increasing speed or just changing the motors output direction. Gearboxes can reduce the speed thus apply more torque than
My First Truck When I was fourteen I began the search for a vehicle. I want to find an older truck or muscle car to fix up and have done by the time I got my driver’s license. So every day I would search the web for what would be the best looking, easiest to work on, and cheapest vehicle I could find. I fell in love with the look of the square body Chevy short bed trucks and it was all the things I was looking for; the hunt was on for the one for me. After a few weeks of searching on craigslist
