The Duke Axial Engine is a light weight, internal combustion, valve less engine. Suitable for Marine vehicles either inboard or outboard, Light Aircrafts, and or Generator/Utility and Military. The concept of this engine is fairly new. It began in New Zeeland’s Duke Engine’s, and is already on its way to being a more efficient engine. The information provided throughout will help gain a better concept of the engine and how it will be an asset to the automotive industry. The engine is a four…

during the American revolution and brought a victory to America. A submarine is powerful weapon for the navy in any country. Submarine consists of many parts.The main parts to make submarine work (move, float and sink) are ballast tank, planes and engines First,ballast tank is a huge tank have…

Pulverised fuel-fired plants are used in a locomotive. Credit: ME Mechanical The Advantages and Limitations of the Gas Turbine The Main Advantages of Gas Turbines are: High power output from a given weight of engine. The torque output characteristics permit a notable simplification of the transmission system. Smooth vibration less running due to absence of reciprocating parts. Easy starting. Can use a wide range of fuels and does not require expensive anti-knock…

motor and growling dual exhaust the 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS is every bit pure American muscle. Two engines were available in Chevelle's1970 super sport package. The SS396 was powered by a 396 cubic inch Turbo-Jet V8 putting out 350 horsepower. The SS454 was a powerhouse with its LS-6 454 cubic inch V8 motor delivering a whopping 450 horsepower. The LS-6 was the most powerful production engine of 1970. It was reported having a quarter mile time of 13.12 seconds with top speed of 108 mph.…

allows the motor oil to be more fluid. Thus, it will flow more easily and quickly from the engine. Then, for more comfort, the car must be elevated by means of a jack. Make sure to secure the position of the car. Locate the cap position, it is often underneath the engine, sometimes on the side of the crankcase. Before you start loosening the cap, do not forget to unscrew the oil filler cap on top of the engine. If you do not, a phenomenon of depression can happen and a longer emptying.…

convenience, time takes travel, and environment, but automobiles and jets complete each other by playing different yet indispensable parts…

how heavy the effect was on airlines. Consuming 6% of the nation’s petroleum product, the civil aviation sector had tripled its energy consumption in the previous decade, thanks to the groundbreaking advent of the jet age, when bigger and faster passenger aircrafts powered by jet engines made air travel more accessible and reliable than ever. Los Angeles Times reported in December of 1974 that the largest airline in the nation, United Airlines, suffered a $5.26 million loss in November due to…

transport carries around 0.5% of the volume of world trade shipments, it is over 35% by value – meaning that goods shipped by air are very high value commodities, often times perishable or time sensitive 6. Jet aircraft in service today are over70% more fuel efficient per seat kilometer than the first jets in the 1960s. Globally, the average occupancy of aircraft is around 80%, greater than other forms of transport. 7. Around 80% of aviation CO2 emissions are emitted from flights of over 1,500…

a fire are two ways of converting work into heat. However, converting heat into work is not so easy. This process needs to be aided with a heat engine. A heat engine is any device that changes internal energy into mechanical work. According to Hewitt, "The basic idea behind a heat engine, whether a steam engine, internal combustion engine, or jet engine, is that mechanical work can be obtained only when heat flows from a high temperature to a low temperature (Hewitt 475)." However, all the heat…

Compression Ignition (HCCI) Engine” (First Draft) Abhijit Sonje Ji, C., and Ronney, P. D., 2002, “Modeling of Engine Cyclic Variations by a Thermodynamic Model,” SAE paper 2002-01-2736. Ji and Ronney (2002) developed a Kantor model showing that prior-cycle effects resulting from exhaust gas residuals are a significant factor in cyclic variability of combustion in internal combustion engines. Olsson, J. O., Tunestal, P., and Johansson, B., 2001, “Closed Loop Control of an HCCI Engine,” SAE…
