4) The value of only 12% of energy available at the traction interface of an automobile can only be made within the context of 'well-to-wheels' thermal efficiency, and of 'only' a gasoline-powered automobile.
5) Automobiles of up to 43.2% efficiency are given by your own reporting, at different Forums here at EcoModder.com, a discrepancy of 31.2%. What's it going to be?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6) The University of Leeds is going to have to defend their claim of 9%-to 12% energy loss due to engine friction. I call BS.
7) University of Leeds values for 'pumpimg losses' I also call BS.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8) Do your 'scientists' know that 'Boron-Nitrogen' has been an oil additive since 1977?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9) What possible benefit can accrue to an automobile engine by arbitrarily plating aluminum oxide onto 'any' of it's surfaces ? You still do not comprehend automobile engine lubrication!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10) Anti-oxidant packages have been added to 'motor oil' for over 47-years! What on Earth do you think could be the benefit of a 'ceramic barrier '?
Again, again, you don't seem to the have the vaguest idea how an automotive lubrication system operates. And I'm beginning to believe that a lot of university PhD candidates don't either.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11) I don't recognize any 'science' conducted on your part.
12) I have zero confidence in your claims.
13) My experience is that, you haven't learned anything about the science of Tribology. You just keep offering more and more sophisticated versions of the same falsehoods. I believe it to be of no benefit to the EcoModder community. Dangerous! Fact-averse. 'Disputation' vs scientific debate.

Reading between the lines here; all i see is a concerted, if perhaps unconscious effort, to piss me off. Probably in an effort to get me to say something bannable and get rid of me.
Whats that actually about..?
No effort to check on Argonne National Labs and their reputation?
My scientists?
If that's the case; any medication you are currently taking is based on BS dreamed up by 'My Scientists'
You are replying to this thread on a contraption dreamed up by 'My Scientists'
Do you hear yourself..?
Boron compounds since wheneverTF have not been Boric Acid that modifies metal surfaces rather than changes the oil chemistry.
Go to Argonne National Labs and talk to the lubrication researchers there as you have to me.
What would happen?
If they have the brain power to keep their emotions in check you would simply be kicked out.
If not; you would probably require medical attention!
You have gone beyond plain rude into the realm of trying to start a fight in this thread.
