Elimination of Super Chargers in Automobiles by Using Cooling System
Abstract: Nowadays, the fossil fuels are depleting day by day. The efficiency of an automobile has to be increased to overcome the shortage of fossil fuels. If we reduce the consumption of the brake power obtained during combustion for other purposes rather than running the vehicle such as super chargers, cooling systems etc., we can increase the efficiency. We are using almost 35% of the output power of the crankshaft for …
