Check out HONDA FCX… awesome tech.. the car of trrw.. i know i cannot afford 2 buy if it selling here now, but i proud of it.. proud of human capability to make awesome vehicles…

Gallardo,

fren pls check out how fuel cell works 1st… yeah u r totally flawed orite…. the car doesnt require to recharge from electric source, u think it is a rechargeble car ka? like yr handpon? sorry brother, u r wrong la…

for yr info.. fuel cell is a electrochem car, it works by itself by electrolisis reactions.. it uses pure hydrogen and oxygen as fuel to generate electric and the emission is pure water vapor… to make it simple; H & O = electric = H2o… i never saw fuel cell engines b4, but i once saw how fuel cell work in 1 exhibiton last 2 years…

Intersting? Now this is the right path of auto technology.. that is why i am not amaze with this crower engines.. compare to fuel cell, it is 3 steps back.. hybrid concept even better 1 fuel generate 2 power fire & electric..

i want to share with u guys.. the world had a nuclear car concept b4.. it called Ford Nucleon.. developed by ford.. but never been produced.. may be after they find ways to control nuclear subtance better, we would ve nuclear car near future, using low grade uranium or other less dangeruos radioactive subtance..

UnlimitedPowerToMove…

Yeah rite.. but not brilliant enuf.. & still not a hit.. let the world decide that.. many days oredi, still never appeared in main newspapers.. i would say new technolongy like fuel cell is real brilliant.. & better they (the japs) start to improve & comercialize it than use this crower concept… i heard about HONDA’s fuel cell car.. really impresive….

ps: fuel cell = brilliant..

Whoever do you mean? Condensation can even happen on car windshields. Why else would car windows get fogged up? ]

Exactly my point. All i meant was that the water cycle in the environment is endless. When did i ever mention anything about condensation or windows getting fogged up? I was refering to ‘motorhead’s comment that says “Yeah very interesting, but soon we will short off water!!!, no water left to drink.. it needs water to work”

No matter where you are all over the world, there WILL be water. Planet Earth consists of 70% water mass. And if what Saudi or whatever desert shit whoever is saying about, who asked you to buy a car like that? Not that anyone’s pointing a gun at you to get a car like that.

i am sure countries that have strict smoke emission in europe would ban this engine.. , further more, mixture of steam & oil in an engine can produce foam in long run, so they sure need special engine oil.. so many weaknesses, so much to improve]

This engine is exactly an example of a brilliant idea. Water resources are abundant. To get full potential from this idea would be the engineer’s job. Why would u think Ford from the very 1st ‘black matchbox’ car came up till today with the FordGT440?….R&D my friend. The idea of this concept is to have more BHP without the sacrifice of extra fuel… which is the main concern of global environmentalists now.

Worse bout this type of engine, they emit more dangerous smoke… steam+carbon+mono oxide+etc.. very heavy smoke]

c’mon… grow up! which would u think is worse. the many cars on the road TODAY chugging the atmosphere with CO, or the same amount of output that contains partial amount of H2O, which also means lower CO content. You do the math.

well i never saw hybrid so far… like 2 see one & understand more how it works..

anybody has the link to a full documentation of cower’s six stroke engine?

Yeah.. diesel engines now more efficent.. diesel vapourize much slower… hybrid engines ve conventional engine use electric motor alternatively.. fuel work the engine generate kinetic, spin the dynamo, create electric power then move the electric motor, after fully charge..

if diesel save more fuel, why not have diesel hybrid engines?.. i am sure they’ll do it, soon.. this is a part of their business strategy.. i think.. later we wud ve Prius diesel! thats how they make cars keep selling… not like proton, after 20 years & nothing! we still ve same old wira till today..

as for alternative fuel, maybe methanol.. or hydrogen.. methanol acquired from planting lots and lots of JAGUNG! the process of converting little yellow granules into.. fuel.. haha.. not so sure how.. as for hydrogen, they’ve already got some sort of algae that produces hydrogen.. need quite alot of them but if u scatter them accross a large area.. hrmph,, u wud be getting quite alot of hydrogen.. thats only 1 way.. there would be alot of other ways 2 produce hyrdogen.. maybe hydrogen would just supplement some other fuel for a car vehicle tat runs on various types of energy source.

thats my 2 cents! peace..

fren i know la i doesnt run on water only.. u dont read properly.. if work with water only, good la.. totaly steam come out.. what worry me is 4T engine work with water plus 2 cycle somemore…

Gallardo,

Thanks for yr info.. but both of us dont know how effient this engine would be.. so let just wait and see…

My point is this engine wont be a hit.. need 2 resources fuel & water.. not practical… we still have a lot to improve in our 4T engine.. air as cooling agent is still relevan.. it is free and every where on earth.. our radiator system is improving in any car… maybe we might have radiator using gas like AC for intense heat for small but powerful turbo engines..

And hybrid car have so much room to improve… fuel cell is a fantastic breakthrough… my prediction for car tech evolution is this:

4T engines ( biodiesel- Methene gas) – hybrid cars -fuel cell – electric & solar power – reactor cell powered (the technology would be more stable in the future)

Gallardo, what u think?

i dont quite agree with you.. the fifth stroke involves injecting water into the combustion chamber.. but before that.. forth stroke has taken place and the damn pollutants.. or wateva gasses ur so paranoid about has already been discarded.. so u wont get a pure concoction of steam and carbon monoxide…. even if the steam were 2 mix with the carbon monoxide.. no biggy.. it happens in the sky.. i guess.. and dude.. the emissions wont increase la.. ur not making extra carbon monoxide k.. it wud be like any other engine.. but with and extra cycle.. same emissions!!! and ur claim bout acid rain?? read this k.. i quote from http://www.botany.uwc.ac.za/Envfacts/facts/acidrain.htm

Sulphur dioxide reacts with water vapour and sunlight to form sulphuric acid. Likewise NOX form nitric acid in the air. These reactions takes hours, or even days, during which polluted air may move hundreds of kilometres. Thus acid rain can fall far from the source of pollution.

take note of the hours and days thing.. the engine would not be responsible 4 creating extra acid rain.. coz the emissions is mantained la dude.. maybe reduced coz ur harnessing extra energy from the fuel.. thus requirng less fuel per kilometre.. ta daaaaa!! i conclude.. its a better engine.. 4 now.. =p.. haha.. im only 17.. so.. if im toking crap.. sifu’s please point out k? tq!

Worse bout this type of engine, they emit more dangerous smoke… steam+carbon+mono oxide+etc.. very heavy smoke, …i am sure countries that have strict smoke emission in europe would ban this engine.. , further more, mixture of steam & oil in an engine can produce foam in long run, so they sure need special engine oil.. so many weaknesses, so much to improve…& i still think this is not a WOW new technology.. there r still many to improve in our conventional engine, turbo systems, radiator systems,.. & many areas to improve & explore in hybrid engines, fuel cell, hydrogen and electric car.. which are more environment friendly.. & towkehs in automotive industries know that fossil fuel is running out.. (this crower engine still need fossil fuel to work).. Japan car makers are ahead in these new environment friendly technology..

the fact is environment is an important factor in automotive development technology nowdays, in some countries it is their 1st commitment.. for instance in Germany they start to use more diesel engines preparing for biodiesel fuel in the future…We cant see much environment awareness in msia.. bcoz we are no.1 polluters… we ve lotta water & rain, but recently we all drink shit, especially people in klang valley.. so sad…

ps: i am going for UnlimitedPowerToMove vehicles..

Friend, you ok ar? Dont get the point wrong k? This is not a hydro-combustion engine. It doesnt run on water k? Water is just a compliment in his design. And do you know why today we’re still not using environmentally friendlier vehicles? Its because everyone goes like what you think -> TOTALLY ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY VEHICLES, and if doing this, will have a huge impact on profitability, thus threatening the sustainability of the company itself…. its rather better to come out with something that improves current technlogy.

- it’s about my aircond. My car all wet inside.. and for few second i drive, i got fogs in my car. what happened aa?

+ Oh!, i see.. its’ your engine leaked into aircond.. ..

btw, i prefer more on Electricity kinda vechile..
if we can find how to charge a car battery (that battery size as small as shoe box ) in a very few second ! . Somewhere scientist in Egypt has discover a battery(card) as smaller as credit card in size but can use for light up a bulb for more than 24 hours and just took few second to charge! (if i not mistake) ..

Whoever do you mean? Condensation can even happen on car windshields. Why else would car windows get fogged up?

ps. i am sure this engine will produce steam mix with smoke, and can contribute to acid rain…

Freedom’s pilot.

Maybe cannot inject water during moring cold start, perhaps only when the engine is hot enough, water injected and steam power extrated! Now this is much more sensible then a high pressure magic canister that can convert water into oxygen and hydrogen and then injected into combustion chamber….

Crower’s engine is very interesting particularly the parts where radiators can be eliminated from the picture meaning less weight for our cars to carry alongside and the minimisation of dependency on fossil fuels because of the utilisation of petrol and steam.
