This is some good stuff you guys are putting up thanks for the effort you have given
grately appreciated. As you have fiqured out I have no education to be able to do this calculations . I ve had lots of training in the auto industry and years of experince in how
things work . Drop out 12...
Your not understanding the main concept of this idea.
Idea is mainly for increased fuel mpg. The concept is really very simple.
A big engine is necssasary for accelaration ,Climbing hills ,any type of increased load.
The idea is to aid in mpg increase ,the concept is to reduce waist of big...
Thanks bob I will be back one day for some help on gear ratios
to get the rpm,s 0f the mini engine correct.
And thanks for all the imput of everyone else.
One day I will have correct data to prove the overall increase of mpg
that I believe will be obtained.
One more thing that's in mind...
Just put the idea of mine to side .I am 100 percent
sure this will increase mpgp . In an idea road test
what's requred to maintain 70 mph with a 2011 chevy camaro?
Not how much to get to speed just to sustain at speed.
During accelaration The big engine will be doing the work...

Power assist ( I am adding small engine to reduce load of big engine) .Small engine at max torque supporting most of the weight and drag Maybe this will help. I thought one of you could get some data .A rough estmate
The varibles to question are endless ,minumum amount of torque to power...
The main reason for question is to find out what percentage of the torque required
will be supported from mini diesel engine.
The engine is to small to apply enough force to accelarate to speed,
Running at peak torque is idea for fuel miledge with proper gearing that's what
imtrying to set up for. The amount of fuel used is the purpose of this added engine
It will support the load with better fuel economy.
The amount of fuel for given load will very in many different ways...
It will not need to be perfectly in synced Its a power assist set up I am working on .
a small engine that can support the amount of power it takes at said speed will take way less fuel than a bigger engine . For instance ,a 5.3 lt is 5300 cc a .662 is only 662 cc
If its only taking say...
Please help me and calculate the amount of torque
required to sustain a car ,3500 lb car medium wind drag.
aproxamently 70 mph. I know without wind resistance
you can not figure exact but a close estimate would be greatly appreciated.
Im wanting to add a secondary mini diesel engine 662 cc...
