Ways of Decreasing Fuel Consumption in Vehicles

Abstract

Everyday the mankind consumes more and more energy, in this regard the stocks of traditional sources of this energy are decreased. Much attention has always been given to the problem of effective energy saving in transport. The environmental degradation is in parallel to the problem. The hybrid vehicle invention can be the solution of the problems given. The research considers the development and invention of the energy saving hybrid vehicle. The vehicle is driven by means of power station, the differential peculiarity of which is two energy sources usage and two types of engine, electric-powered and heat engine. In this paper the arrangements of combined and hybrid power stations for vehicles with heat-engines are developed. The key advantage of such vehicles is a fuel consumption reduction and the emission of harmful agents to the atmosphere.
