TURBINE VEHICLES

WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/050112

A2

The Super Hybrid and the Enhanced Electric Car inventions modify existing designs for commercial Hybrid vehicles and Electric Cars by replacing the conventional power sources with the use of Turbine engines, which provide continuous power source. Using Turbine engines allow the reduction of multiple storage batteries in existing designs to at most two batteries. The improvements made in the Super Hybrid design have the advantages of extending the fuel consumption from an average of 60 miles to a gallon to more than 100 miles per gallon, reducing fuel emission, and reducing the cost of the multiple battery pack by about 80 %. The improvements made in the Enhanced Electrical Cars have vehicle cost reduction advantages with 80 % reduction in the cost of the series parallel battery pack, and longer battery life cycles.

TURBINE VEHICLES

SPECIFICATIONS

1. EXISTING HYBRID CARS

The Hybrid car shown in figure 1 exhibits the current features such as the following: GASOLINE ENGINE: The purpose of a gasoline car engine is to convert gasoline into motion so that the vehicle can propel forward. Currently, this motion is created from burning of gasoline inside the engine.

TRANSMISSION: The transmission allows the gear ratio between the gasoline engine and the drive wheels to change as the car speeds up and slows down. ELECTRIC MOTOR: The conventional electric motor drives the vehicle. BATTERY: In a hybrid car, the series- parallel battery pack store energy for the electric motor. Unlike the gasoline in the fuel tank, which can only power the gasoline engine, the electric motor on a hybrid car can put energy into the batteries as well as draw energy from them, which preserve energy.

Conventionally, vehicles without the hybrid system consume at most 20 miles to a gallon. However, existing hybrid vehicles consume 32 to 50 miles a gallon.
