Five-stroke engine

In 1879, Nikolaus Otto manufactured and sold a double expansion engine (the double and triple expansion principles had ample usage in steam engines), with two small cylinders at both sides of a low-pressure larger cylinder, where a second expansion of exhaust stroke gas took place; the owner returned it, alleging poor performance. In 1906, the concept was incorporated in a car built by EHV (Eisenhuth Horseless Vehicle Company) CT, USA;22 and in the 21st century Ilmor designed and successfully tested a 5-stroke double expansion internal combustion engine, with high power output and low SFC (Specific Fuel Consumption).23
Six-stroke engine

The six-stroke engine was invented in 1883. Four kinds of six-stroke use a regular piston in a regular cylinder (Griffin six-stroke, Bajulaz six-stroke, Velozeta six-stroke and Crower six-stroke), firing every three crankshaft revolutions. The systems capture the wasted heat of the four-stroke Otto cycle with an injection of air or water.

The Beare Head and "piston charger" engines operate as opposed-piston engines, two pistons in a single cylinder, firing every two revolutions rather more like a regular four-stroke.

Youthful bravado behind the wheel

With police statistics and scientific studies it shows that young people are the most common cause accidents on the roads. Too high speed, the desire to impress colleagues or colleagues and little experience in managing vehicle are the main causes of dangerous incidents on the road. It is not surprising that insurers often make the amount of insurance premiums was the age of the holder of the vehicle and the number of road events with his participation. Young people, often breaching the rules of the road are in fact for insurers customers not profitable and that is why they use this kind of preventive measures, such as increasing fees for insurance with every accident.

Turbofan Jet Engine

Jet engines use a number of rows of fan blades to compress air which then enters a combustor where it is mixed with fuel (typically JP fuel) and then ignited. The burning of the fuel raises the temperature of the air which is then exhausted out of the engine creating thrust. A modern turbofan engine can operate at as high as 48% efficiency. 24

There are six sections to a Fan Jet engine:

Fan
Compressor
Combustor
Turbine
Mixer
Nozzle
