Friction-reducing measures include a variable speed water pump, a clutched air compressor, low-viscosity oil and an improved cylinder kit. To achieve the highest efficiency possible, engineers increased the compression ratio, ran extensive tests on piston and injector combinations, and pushed each engine component to its limit.

For reference, a typical lead acid battery can survive 500-800 cycles while 2,800 cycles is almost 8 years of use assuming one cycle a day. Valence’s Saphion technology, commercially introduced in 2002, refers to the processes and materials used in developing the novel patented lithium iron magnesium phosphate cathode materials.

The Optiblend kit displaces diesel with natural gas (up to 70%) or other alternative fuels, without modifications to the internal components or the stock fuel management system. The OptiBlend system lowers operational costs, increases back up runtime capacity, and reduces NO x , CO 2 , and PM emissions.

For calculations and formulae, you may refer NPTEL course, then you may get some information from IEEE I guess.😊 And my project topic is matrix converter bidirectional contactless charger for EV. Anyway, you may try to implement some control techniques for power electronics converter for EV control. Thank you.

3Prong Power converts existing Toyota Priuses into plug-in hybrids that can run entirely on electricity. They convert Toyota Prius hybrids into mostly electric vehicles that get 100 to 150 miles per gallon. It takes 3Prong Power a little more than a day to convert a Prius to a plug-in, and costs customers about $6,700.
