The Wankel Engine is a special internal combustion engine, not largely known. After explaining the idea behind the engine and its main parts, we deal with engine common – yet unique – advantages.
Concepts are more welcome now than ever before and if anything can contribute to the crippling energy crisis we seem to be in, it would be almost evangelistic. Hyper cars is a possibility now and you may now read on to know what they are and if it is ever going to be a reality.
The reservoirs of hydrocarbons are situated thousands of meters below the earth’s surface and hence their locations and size below ground cannot be estimated visually. Seismic Surveying gives a picture of the earth’s subsurface which helps us to look beneath earth to locate the oil and gas reserves.
Fuel and Time – what’s common between them? We always seem to run out of it. Now, given this situation and the fact that the world is already in a seemingly inevitable energy crisis, what can we do? We look up to Nuclear energy which is at least closer to our dream of finding alternative fuels.
Nuclear power plants are very useful and safe as long as they are maintained properly and safely. But what can you do if you find one day that the Earth beneath the plant is just tearing apart? Just read about geological faults and risks of Nuclear Power Plant.
Four stroke internal combustion (IC) engines using gasoline as the fuel work on the principle of thermodynamic Otto cycle. These are engine are also called Spark Ignition (SI) engines and are employed extensively in the vehicles used by us in our day-to-day life.
To carry out the analysis of the heat engines, the concept of air standard cycles was conceived. In these cycles certain mass of air is considered to be working in the thermodynamic cycle.The two most commonly used air standard cycles are Otto cycle and Diesel cycle.
Thermodynamic Diesel cycle corresponds to the four stroke internal combsution diesel engines used by us in our vehicles and machines. In these engines the air is compressed to high pressures and then combustion of fuel takes place, hence they are also called as Compression Ignition (CI) engines.
Water can be stored in an elevated storage tank to be used later on. It requires a pump to store the water at that height and it flows out instantly when needed. So what do you do when you need to store electric charge, just find out!
The influence of fossil fuels can never be overemphasized on human civilization. From power plants to automobiles, lubricants to paints and synthetic yarns to cosmetics, petroleum products are used everywhere. A journey of oil and natural gas industry, from exploration to production of Hydrocarbons.
