Hybrid Engines

What are hybrid engines? 

When we speak of hybrid motor we refer to two types of different, commonly electric power and gasoline, that influence to generate the movement of the vehicle. The most common are the parallel hybrid called. In them, the two sources of power work together, separately or in parallel. The invention of hybrid engines were a major challenge for engineers, since they must have produced a car that save gasoline and keep the high speed. This should be possible only with an electric motor, a small engine, and a great pair of batteries to spin the wheels. The key for engineers was maximize the performance of the gasoline, and maintain charged batteries that never need to be recharged. The energy provided by about 2 liters of gasoline requires approximately 205 kg of battery.

Operation of a hybrid engine 

A set of gears leading to a chain that connects the wheels of the car. In particular, produced a delicate interaction between gears that determines how much fuel burned car. When the movement begins, the electric motor rotates the outer gear, and this gives you speed without wasting a drop of gasoline. When you win speed, the gasoline engine starts to participate. 4 the power splitter gears start to turn and increase the power of the car. There is a central gear which also kicks in; It is connected to a generator that charges the batteries, and sent extra power to the electric motor. The technology of hybrid cars includes internal monitor that indicates what type of power that is working. The operation of electric cars is ideal for urban, but on road, electric car will need as much, a couple of thousands of kilometres to achieve a complete recharge. Hybrid cars have the advantage of burning gasoline with maximum efficiency, and recharge the battery without compromising power.
