How to Increase Diesel Engine Performance

Improving the energy performance of diesel engines, unlike gasoline engines that must replace the component (depending on how big you want). Even to have to do pengorekan, because it wanted to boost significantly.
While the diesel only adjustment and cleaning of components. These are the steps.
* Calibration re-injection pump. Function, set back in order to approach the performance diesel sprays that dimaui. Moreover, regulating the consumption of diesel fuel into space via a nozzle kompresai.
* Ration supply of diesel fuel added, 50-10 percent of optimal. Actually, the standard diesel fuel supply rations every car is different and there are already standards.
* If you have added, do not forget to reset the valve to be more meetings. The result, apart from added supply, power has increased. In effect, the consumption of a little more extravagant, but easier and faster done.
* Promote a timing of injection and the addition of an electrical signal at the fuel pump in order to balance the demand for diesel fuel. This device also can lighten the work of the injector pump and reduce symptoms of false wind.
* Replace the air filter which has a lower resistance. For example a filter of open water, although there is often cleaned in order to keep the air flow smoothly.
For the already-tech diesel Commonrail, according Apin, from the workshop can raise Amiaw Motor Sport turbo, turbine and intercooler. Or, could the pemasanngan Dastek Unichip piggyback. For the installation fee Rp5 millions, consisting of the following piggyback plug & play cable. Addition of optimal power can reach 70 HP

BMW 5-Series quickly produce new ActiveHybrid starting next year. "Beginning in 2011, the BMW 5-Series will be available in full-hybrid option.

"We want to reduce the amount of exhaust gas at least 25 percent starting in 2008 until 2020," explained Reithofer. Until late 2009, the average flue gas generated from a BMW 150 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer, down from 156 grams of carbon dioxide prior to 2008.
Reithofer added that the support of government action in the form of incentives for hybrid cars are able to create a larger market, especially in Japan. "The market hybrid cars in Japan is soaring. So, if we do not have a choice of hybrid product, you will not be selling at all in Japan," he asserted.
Hybrid system owned-5 Series ActiveHybrid similar to the Toyota Prius. For distances and low speeds, the electric motor can dimanfatkan maximum. In addition, this car also charge the battery when braking position capturing kinetic force that to happen.
This product has been exhibited in the event the Geneva Auto Show in March. At the exhibition, in addition to the Series 5, the manufacturer also display other products, namely X6 ActiveHybrid 7-Series ActiveHybrid and that's not a full hybrid, which means nothing can go only use electricity.

Hydrogen Cars Produced in Commercial Soon


Hydrogen cars or fuel cells (fuel cells) are produced commercially soon. This was revealed after Toyota has lowered production costs making up 90 percent. With this, in turn, Toyota could sell hydrogen-fueled sedan at a price 50 000 United States dollars (U.S.) or the exchange rate is currently equivalent to USD 470 million.

Compared to five years ago, that price has fallen by half. It is narrated by Yoshihiko Masuda, managing director of Toyota for a sophisticated car, in an interview with Bloomberg.

With increasingly affordable prices, will accelerate development of hydrogen cars when the technology is still far behind compared to electric cars. Some manufacturers, like Toyota, General Motors, Honda, Daimler AG, and Hyundai Motor, said ready to sell fuel cell cars are the retail to the public in 2015.

Find out how
To make the price affordable fuel cell car, the way Toyota does is reduce the amount of platinum used. In addition, Toyota also has found a way to more easily produce a thin layer (film) on fuel cell and hydrogen tanks made from carbon fiber.

The advantage of hydrogen cars, emits only water vapor. The distance farther and faster than recharging the battery (electric cars). Shortcomings, charging stations are still scarce and the need for expensive infrastructure.

"Hydrogen is an abundant element in the universe, we can use forever," said California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger when he opened a conference on hydrogen cars are maintained by the National Hydrogen Asscociation in Long Beach the day before yesterday. "We need to wake up the federal government," added the star of this Terminator.
