AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the feasibility of modifying an engine to compress air at bottom dead center (BDC) by introducing a plate to separate the crankcase and cylinder block. The idea is to use this compressed air to pressurize the intake manifold, similar to turbochargers and superchargers. While the concept is possible, it may result in lower output energy and efficiency. One participant suggests that a more complex design could allow for compressed air usage from both sides, potentially improving output. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the need to balance design complexity with energy efficiency in engine modifications.

i need a clarification regarding my project work..

can we compress the air inside the cylinder at bottom dead center by modifing the engine by introducing a plate at BDC to separate crank case and cylinder block. piston bottom compresses the air which we introduced into cylinder just after expansion stroke using plate as obstacle and sends pressurized air to intake manifold.,

actually my idea i like compressing air to pressurize just like turbo and super chargers do.

does this idea is possible.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Yes it can be possible but this will lower the output energy or efficiency of the machine. Better to use the exhaust for chargers
 
Thank u Jmex..,
Thanks for your positive reply it really help me a lot to move further.
Thanks alot
 
one clarification jmex,
does reduction of output energy will be higher or lower?

What I believe from my experience will be less reduction in output but think about introducing another charge from the bottom portion. Design will be bit complicated but output will be great. This way you can use compressed air from both side as well as power from both side by every power stroke.
 
Sorry for late reply.
 

Thread 'A practical way to vaporize fuel for high MPG?'

Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...

Thread 'Technical Analysis on Titan Sub (Titanic Sub)'

TL;DR Summary: Heard in the news about using sonar to locate the sub Hello : After the sinking of the ship near the Greek shores , carrying of alot of people , there was another accident that include 5 tourists and a submarine visiting the titanic , which went missing Some technical notes captured my attention, that there us few sonar devices are hearing sounds repeated every 30 seconds , but they are not able to locate the source Is it possible that the sound waves are reflecting from...
