The Sea Bird (previously the USNS New Bedford T-AKL-17) will implement many new, experimental technologies designed to lower emissions and allow the ship to run clean. Much thought has gone into this unique modification process, implementing some of the most intriguing methods available. The near future of the Sea Bird will not only stand as a lesson in ethics and conservation, but as an example of how we can Up to 40 percent of your fuel is wasted here.
improve our standards of living through innovation and ingenuity.

The Trouble with Modern Combustion Engines

The combustion engines of today face a complicated problem. The catalytic Method used in gasoline piston engines does not function well when exposed to pure alcohol, mineral spirits, or fuel oil. The early detonation of petroleum distillates leads to the early demise of the engine. If the burn is slowed, then fuel usage must be increased, instigating another problem and raising operating costs. In this situation, you may be surprised to learn that nearly 40 percent of the fuel put in winds up going right back out through the exhaust and consumed by your catalytic converter. The current design leaves much to be desired when it comes to both cleaner operation and lowering fuel costs.

Liquid versus Gas

In order to get the most out of every gallon of fuel used, we must learn how to more effectively transform fuel into a gas state. In order to maintain maximum burn, a liquid fuel must be converted to a gas. The liquid form does not burn. Carburetors and fuel injectors are designed to help in the conversion process. However these are not entirely efficient, and often the gas form retains some of its previous liquid state.

A small modification can help change that. By installing a close fitting pipe around a smaller threaded pipe, weFuel Injection Comparison can begin to achieve nearly perfect combustion. This device is fitted with inlet and an outlet. When engine heat passes through the devices center, fuel is guided to the outer cavity. This will turn the liquid fuel into a burnable gas.

This design holds a lot of potential in the realm of fuel conservation. The design is small and can be applied in any type of engine, including diesel piston, gasoline piston, rotary and turbine engines. We can begin to use the fuel we have far more effectively without a large portion of it almost literally going up in smoke. This small addition to the standard engine could mean another victory for the environment as well as the consumers bank account.
