Less than .05 cents out of every dollar you spend on gasoline

We can blame hydrocarbon fuels for Global Warming and Ozone fog over our cities, however, it is not the fault of the fuel when it is the inability of the engine apply the energy to do the work it is meant to do or to burn the fuel cleanly

Less than .05 cents out of every dollar you spend on gasoline starts you car and pushes you down the road? The rest of your $2.50 + per gallon fuels energy goes out the exhaust and radiator! Check it out for yourself.

The engine in your car or truck is likely a four-cycle engine with four to ten cylinders. Each cycle equals 180º of a circle. The four cycles are Intake, Compression, Power, Exhaust totaling 720º equaling two rotations before that cylinder is ready to fire again. Only the power stroke doses the work the rest are drag. The more cylinders in an engine the more drag. (Resistance to work) In the180º Power stroke the first 30º and the last 40ºare worthless for push. It’s like standing on a bicycle pedal. That leaves 110º of the Power stroke to do all the work!

110º ÷720º = 15.2 % of the each engines cylinder dose the work!

We loose about 6% additional from that 15.2% to the Drag in the operation of the engine through the alternator, water pump, oil pump, and barring friction.

15.2% - 6% = 9.2 % of the Mechanical Physics pushing your car or truck!

Thermal Energy of your Fuel

Engine design engineers agree that one third of the fuels thermal energy (Heat) is lost from the engine’s combustion through the radiator, and another third is lost through the exhaust leaving only one third to turn the crankshaft in each Power stroke!

9.2% ÷ 33% = 3.036% Is the over all efficiency given to the reciprocating car engine!

Allowing for variations the automotive engine efficiency of today is about 5%
maximum!
That is equivalent to .05 Cents of every dollar you spend at the pump for fuel!

There is now the new PDT engine concept that is more than 95% fuel efficient and it burns it fuel completely. It also removes the ash from its exhaust before it is released back into the atmosphere. This engine can reduce Carbon Dioxide emissions by 70% and increase your cars performance!

Hear is a completely NEW approach to energy needs:

Pollution - Global Warming - Energy - Going Green

Many times I have been asked “How is it that you can say that you have come up with an answer to the Energy / Pollution problems when the college educated engineers of the world haven’t been able to do so?” It’s not my place to justify there shameful lack of response to environmental needs by answering for them. I can only answer for myself. I grew up in an environment that made it a necessity to repair what I had with what was available. At the age of twelve I rebuilt a 1953 Plymouth with a very basic tools and the use of a valve grinding machine that a neighbor let me use. I have out of necessity torn down and repaired Semi-Diesel engines in truck-stop parking lots and replaced transmissions on the side of expressways. I learned to be a mechanical engineer in the collegiate school of necessity and hard knocks.

In the sixties I thought I knew just about everything there was to know about the reciprocating engine having seen all of them from the dirty side. As a talented mechanic that then bragged how I could take engines apart, reassembling them blindfolded did not understand the dynamics (thermal and kinetic forces) of a reciprocating engine. After an exhausting I came home to have my three year old daughter let me know in no uncertain terms that I was a polluter, my diesel truck smoked too much. That conversation started my thinking process that later led me to the PDT engine concept. After years of study and research I applied for and was granted my first U.S. patent.
