Subject: Car on water which instead of over 20 l/100km burns only aroun 5 liters per 100 kilometers
Such a car weas build by two young hobbyists from New Zealand. It was
shown in television. The television crew subjected it to a simple test
to determine the saving on fuel that it accomplishes. It burns only
around 5 liters per 100 kilometers (plus around 1 liter of water),
while the car of an identical model, and year, burned on exactly the
same road and with exactly the same speeds over 20 liters per 100
kilometers.

About this kind of "cars on water" I remember to read theoretically
alteady in 1997 during my professorship in Borneo. But I never had an
opportunity to see how they compare to factory models. So with a great
interest I looked on Friday, 13 June 2008 at 7:00 pm to 7:30 pm on the
channel 3 of television New Zealand the program called "Campbell Live"
which was just about one such car constructed by two young New
Zealanders in their 20s. In this programme was also explained what the
design and operation of such a "car on water" was about. I described
this design and operation on my web page "free_energy.htm" (updated on
15 June or later) the address of which can be find if in the www.google.com
someone types the key words "Jan Pajak free_energy.htm" but without
quotes. In the program this "car on water was also subjected to an
experiment. Namely it was taken for a ride together with another
identical car of the same year and model, only that still in the
factory condition (it was probably "Ford Falcon"). Both cars drove the
same path with the same speed. After they went through 100 kilometers,
the fuel consumption was measured ion both of them by the TV crew. It
turned out that the "car on water" burned around 5 liters of petrol,
while the factory version of the same car burned over 20 liters (both
after 100 km on the road). So the saving on fuel amounted to 75% (or
three quorters) the the original (factory) fuel consumption.

The mopdification of these two boys was extremely simple. They just
added to an old car that they had a small "dissociator of water" which
they build themselves. This dissociator consumed energy from the
dynamo and dissociated water into hydrogen and oxygen. The oxygen was
let out, while the hydrogen was added to the air at the car's
carburattor. So this hydrogen, after entering the cylinder mixed with
the air, burned in the cylinder with the fuel and thus increased the
temperature of the burning. This raise in the temperature of burning
in turn caused the better burning of the fuel, and also the lack of
smoke in the exhaustions. So the burning become much more efficient.
The final effect was that the car consumed 75% less petrol. So the
entire saving on fuel results from this increased temperature in the
cylinder. The changes themselves were technically very simple, so that
even these two boys could complete them successfully.

Because in this program there were no details of the car, I looked in
internet at web pages of the "Campbell LIfe" to find these details.
This particular program has 2 web pages, namely www.3news.co.nz and
www.tv3.co.nz. But I could NOT find anything in there about thye car.
Therefore I described everything that I remembered from this program
on my web page. Interested readers can find it at the addresses of my
web page "free_energy.htm" update on 15 June or later. (This web page
needs to be seeked via www.google.com as there is a lot of such web
pages - not all of these are updated on 15 July 2008. To find these
one needs to type key words listed before.)

So it seems that it is worth to experiemnt with cars, as such simple
change as the "car on water" may save some of us even around $ 100 per
week.

With the totaliztic salute,
Jan Pajak

Seems hardly credible. Cars are not that inefficient. A four-fold
improvement would push the efficiency well into the totally impossible
range.

Gee. A car like that would need a beautiful bridge to park on just to
set it off. You don't have one? I can get you a deal on a big grey one
in Sydney ....

It must be about time we had another free energy machine scam.
Steorns engine has gone remarakably quiet, like they all do.
Whats next.
Must be time for gravity motors or better still, low grade heat
engines which convert low grade heat to electricity directly.

Don't be surprised if your found to be
wanting on this one misguided one  a really efficient internal
combustion motor is inefficient at best .

They're not that inefficient by comparison with their maximum
theoretical efficency as dictated by Carnot's theorem. Any modified
variation of the engine is also constrained by the same theorem. While
there is talk of increased combustion temperature, the engine would fall
apart and/or melt before any increase in temperature could give a four
fold improvement.

Well, if not actually shares, they certainly had an interest in the
story being true, and would not have been motivated to examine the car
in detail to discover the nature of the fraud.

"Teens waste TV crew's time on improved fuel consumption scam" is hardly
current affairs program material - not even "Today Tonight" or "A
Current Affair" (being Aussie tabloid level CA programs) would be
interested.

Yeah... about a whopping 20% 'efficient'.
I think your search engine research doctorate in everything has failed
you this time.

I prefer selling solutions to non-existent problems, such as HI-FI
digital cables, and solar power supplies for pocket calculators. Less
chance of spending time in chokey.

Thank you for the only constructive voice in this flood of spitting
that my thread received so-far. I am really shock. I just reported on
a true accomplishement of two young New Zealand hobbyists-amateurs who
moved their bottom side to do something about the current fuel crisis,
and I got all this spitting and mud throwing. No wonder that our
civilisation is in trouble since we haver people of that knowledge and
that attitude as the ones that threw the mud via the most of above
opinions.

This is just an innocent report about a significant improvement on
fuel efficiency of an ordinary car, which everyone can confirm by
simply ordering from the channel 3 of TVNZ a DVD with that particular
program ("Campbell Life"). I am pretty sure that the TV team did a
good work in checking this improvement, and that there is NO any scam
involved. Also the improvement is extremely easy to make - two young
hobbyists from NZ did it in their garage. So almost everyone can do
it. If, by any chance, I come accross contact details of these two
young hobbyists, I will publish these details on my web page - please
just check from time the page "free_energy.htm" (by finding it in
www.google.com through typing the key words "Jan Pajak
free_energy.htm" - but without quotes, and later by checking that the
page you are viewing is the update dated either on 15 June 2008, or at
a later date). It is worth to learn about this improvement, because in
present days for many people it is able to save at least $100 per week
(while I believe that the improvement itself, if done in one's own
garage, is going to cost around $100).

With the totaliztic salute,
Jan Pajak

But VW have already made a 3 litre / 100km car.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_1-litre_car

The VW 1-litre car, also known as the 1L,[1] is a two-person concept car
designed to travel 100 km using just 1 litre of fuel[2] (equivalent to 235
miles per US gallon or 282 mpg Imperial). To achieve such economy, it is
made from lightweight materials; the body is streamlined; and the engine and
transmission are designed and tuned for economy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-energy_vehicle

Some newer examples of efficient commercially available internal
combustion-propelled vehicles:

Audi A2 (3l) 1.16 MJ/km (3.0 L Diesel/100 km / 94 mpg UK / 78 mpg US)
(discontinued)
VW Lupo (3l) 1.16 MJ/km (3.0 L Diesel/100km / 94 mpg UK / 78 mpg US)
(discontinued)

5 litres fuel / 100 km distance is easily available in current production
European cars. No water required.

I dare say. But the OP's report related to a modification to the fuel
system of a standard car, not a complete bottom-up rethink of the design.

We'd all like a 400% improvement in fuel consumption just by a modest
retrofit of our existing vehicles. Unfortunately there seem to be no end
of people willing to sell us such a system, and remarkably few (equals
zero) who can demonstrate that their system works under properly
controlled conditions.

Vehicle manufacturers have every incentive to use any economically
viable mechanism available for improving the fuel consumption of their
products. The fact that the system created by the teenagers is not
already embodied in mainstream production vehicles speaks volumes.

VW already made a prototype 1 litre / 100km car.

  yes they are by a huge margin , more 50% possible production lost
thermodynamically

  now I wonder one of us has actual practical experience with
thermodynamics and engines beyond reading and bluffing ?

But if it was only going 5km on 1 litre to begin with, it wasn't as if they've
made any great advance is it ?

That too, and it doesn't look as berserk as some 'eco-cars' I've seen
either.

I was making a reference to the number of "just amazing" products being
pimped on prime time Tv that it is later shown the
