What is fuel air ratio?

Air to fuel ratio is the ratio between the weight of air to the weight of fuel, for example: 14.7 pounds of air to 1 pound of fuel would be a air:fuel ratio of 14.7:1 This particular example is called the stoichiometric ratio for gasoline...it's ideal ratio in order to efficiently use all the fuel. This ratio varies for different fuels....for example, ethanol fuels have a stoichiometric air:fuel ratio of 13.85:1. In actuality, a gasoline car gets it's best fuel mileage when the fuel is reduced slightly and produces it's best power when the ratio is a little heavier on the fuel side.


Engineers have designed experimental cars that use liquid hydrogen for fuel instead of gasoline. This is an example of .?

This is an example of alternative fuel technology, specifically hydrogen fuel cell technology. By utilizing liquid hydrogen, these experimental cars aim to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease greenhouse gas emissions. This innovation represents a shift towards more sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation solutions.


What is specific fuel consumption and how it is calculated?

Specific fuel consumption (SFC) is a measure of the fuel efficiency of an engine design, typically expressed in units such as pounds of fuel per hour per horsepower (lb/hp·h) or kilograms of fuel per hour per kilowatt (kg/kW·h). It is calculated by dividing the rate of fuel flow (mass or volume) by the power output of the engine. For example, SFC can be calculated using the formula: SFC = Fuel Flow Rate (mass per time) / Power Output (power). A lower SFC indicates a more efficient engine, as it uses less fuel to produce a given amount of power.


How will wind energy be used in the future?

There is no telling how wind energy will be used in the future. It could be used to replace car fuel in some way for example.
