Virtually every diesel on the road today can run on a bio-diesel fuel. Every car could run on pure alcohol. Of course, gas turbine and turbojet aircraft can fly on almost anything flammable, piston engine planes could also use alternatives. All it takes is the motivation to change. Eventually the cost of extracting petroleum will provde that impetus. (shaking his head) Sit down before you hurt yourself.... Luke OK then, would you please enlighten me as to why any of these assertions are impossible? Known thermal efficiencies of Otto and Brayton Cycle devices Energy densities of alternative fuels Excessive secondary emisive biproducts of alternative fuels generation Fuel handling safety issued with the general public Limited supply sources for raw materials of bio fuels Incalculable infrastructure changes ... I could go on... Leave song writing to the dreamers. Leave science to the engineers. Oh, and yes, I am an engineer. Luke |
