Lotus Omnivore Engine – 10% Better Fuel Economy than Current Leading Gasoline Engines

Traducere in romana cu Google Translate

The Omnivore is a two-stroke direct-injected engine designed to take advantage of the latest in electronic engine management and run on just about any liquid fuel (hence the name). In the time since the initial announcement, the boffins at Lotus Engineering have been exercising their creation on the dyno stand to evaluate its performance. The single-cylinder engine uses an air-assisted direct injection system. A movable "puck" in the top of the cylinder head allows the compression ratio to be varied.

Ce "compression ratio" are la "10% load"... 50:1

Partea cea mai interesanta e ca rata de compresie e variabila. Are 50:1 la sarcini mici si scade odata cu cresterea sarcinii.

Da cat o costa un motor d-asta fata de unul normal ?

[Satori]

10%?

Too little, to late
