Hello,
I noticed this on the Enginer.us web site: Steam Micro Turbine Engine | Enginer | Hybrid Plug In, Plugin The details are pretty sketchy; like how is the steam generated, and is the steam/water recycled in the system? But the efficiency numbers grabbed my attention: 40-80% ! A 5kW generator with that kind of efficiency and size (17"x10"x10") sounds great. Other very interesting items are: Capstone demonstrates turbine compliant with 2010 EPA and CARB diesel standards — Autoblog Green Green Car Congress: UK LowCVP Launches ?Technology Challenge? to Accelerate Low Carbon Vehicle Innovation; Libralato Engines First Registrant Revetec Development |
Hey, this is timing for you! Here's a very fast serial hybrid that uses a Capstone microturbine as a range extender...
