Gain or loss in efficiency?
All other things being equal, which they never are, I would expect a passenger car with your fuel/reformer/engine to provide better well/wheel efficiency compared to gasoline. Duh. The mere presence of your team in the X-competition tells us this. Of course, there are about 27 steps that have to be accounted for before we get a hard number for how fuel efficient your fuel/engine system really is.
But if I put a gun to your head, and just made you pick a number as your best guess, what is the overall change in efficiency with your ideal product, compared to a conventional diesel in the same vehicle. Just for fun.
And of course, due to various non-disclosure agreements, you probably can't just show me the math for a typical example of stranded NG ----> fuel in tank, and miles traveled, but it would be fun to see it.
Finest regards,
