I know you've mentioned dry-cell batteries in the past, which I assume are recharged by the alternator and use to provide current for splitting water. Is the test long enough that the existing charge in your battery array was not a factor (i.e. that you could pre-charge them to make everything work better and then drain them down during the test, or was it a complete cycle with the batteries maintaining the same average charge)? There are a lot of questions you don't really answer. That's only scratching the surface. But the bottom line is that physics says you can't win this game on fuel efficiency, generally speaking. Maybe by combining the offset of several existing inefficiencies in the ICE design, you could pick up 5% or something, but then that would probably be offset by the additional vehicle weight and/or mfg cost and/or maintenance needs, etc. You've got an uphill battle against a brutal enemy, and his name is Science. |
