Abstract |
The panel has evaluated several near and long term alternative power systems including diesel, gas turbine Rankine cycle and Stirling engines. In addition electric vehicles and alternative fuels were studies. Various aspects of each engine-system was considered including emissions, fuel economy, noise, cost size and weight, produceability and driveability. The report also discusses the lead time necessary to begin limited and mass production of each system. |
Supplementary Notes |
Including seven panel reports prepared by Panel on Alternate Power Sources. |
Availability Notes |
Paper copy also available from NTIS $26.00/set of 8 reports as PB-224 866-SET. |
Highlights Notes |
Discusses performance and producibility of possible replacements for OTTo-cycle engines. |
