Hi guys,
Wanted to throw this idea out for some critical reviews. when looking at the best possible way to transfer the heat energy to the tires, this seems like a good way (at least in theory!
).
basically, have a hydraulic hybrid system(one with all the bugs ironed out) mated to a turboshaft engine(possibly with recirculating exhaust gas implemented to minimise propulsive losses further). im not an expert by any means, but it seems to beat an ICE driven HHV in operation & efficiency.
mind you this is just a conceptual idea. what do you guys think? any experts on thermo care to bounce a few ideas on this (or to bunk it) ?
