Compressed air car nearing manufacture

V

Vaughn

I did get it. I read the Tata press release. You know, about this car
you said would never work because you did some sums.

Yet again, you trimmed my post and "answered" without addressing a
single thing of substance. It's obvious you are back to your trolling
ways, name-calling and provoking whilst never addressing the real issues.

Please notice that 1) After a decade of "progress" you can't yet point
to a single AirCar in customer's hands or ever subjected to an
independent 3rd-party test. 2) You have never shown the slightest
inclination to understand the physics behind air energy storage. 3) the
current incarnation of the Aircar is actually a fuel engine, (though,
like a Prius is may be capable of limited engine-off propulsion)

So you are welcome to show me where I have been proven wrong about the
AirCar, except I'm likely to not see your post, and will certainly not
bother responding to it.


Bye again!

You must read the press release by Tata. Also it works. You said it would
never and did some sums.

Oddly, those "events" never come to fruition.

The cars works of course beyond doubt, despite senile people doing sums
saying it will not. It looks they are to make it. Read Tata. Amazing eh?

In rec.aviation.military we've hashed out WW2 technology ad nauseam.
There wasn't that much difference in technical ability because each
side could examine the others' wreckage and test captured examples.
The big difference was the demands of remote offense vs local defence.

Interesting way to put it.
Germany never had more than a small fraction of the US and British
ability to project power overseas, they expected and planned for a
short, local land war. They had more trouble moving supplies by road
and rail across Russia than we did shipping them half way around the
world.

Yes. Poor Russian roads killed Barbarosa. The Germans got a late start
due to having to bail out their Italian allies in Greece and then the
season without roads struck and ground everything to a halt.

I've worked on that issue and made my house and appliances
considerably more efficient by simple, inexpensive changes like
replacing the shower head with a sink spray that shuts off when
released, drying laundry outdoors year-round, learning to live with a
smaller refrigerator and opening windows to vent with night air
instead of running the AC.

I'm thinking night ventilation myself, a neighbor does it well. I'm a
novice...

I have an antenna for TV and dial-up
internet, which save over $100 a month vs cable.

Yikes. Dial Up? Over the air TV is good enough though. I'm completely on
board with the "solar" clothes dryer.
They seem to demand too much prior planning, attention to detail and
change to accustomed behavior for most people. For example I have to
watch the weather forecast to plan when to do laundry, and calculate
the dew points or comfort index of indoor and outdoor air to see if
nighttime venting is worthwhile when the humidity is high.

Good.

What kind of indoor/outdoor humidity spreads do you get? Humidity here
can soar early morning in the summer.

So far this year it's been very pleasant. I have a north facing screened
porch that has been an absolute delight...

Clothes really do dry on the line in the middle of winter, just like
the pavement does.

Dial-up is fine for Usenet.

Summer in the Boston area sees dewpoints up to ~70F, with daytime
highs pushing 100F, if the weather comes from the southwest. Canadian
breezes are much more pleasant. Winter is the reverse, we get subzero
Hudson's Bay weather sometimes, but not this past one.

It didn't. That is why Tata is testing an IC engine fueled by
hydrocarbons.

Have you read the press release and told Tata you are wrong?

Having a comprehension problem are you? What part of "It isn't an air
car" do you not understand? It runs on an IC engine fueled with
hydrocarbons.

And soemtinme only 100% air. Have you told Tata they are wrong?
The
only thing the "air thingy' has to do with it is for temporary power
boosts.

As such, no one said anything at all, pro or con on whether it will
work.

You all said it would not work and Tata should know this, so you should
connect them. They have done all the testing and they thought it works.

The Germans never had a cat in hell's chance of winning WW2.

They could well have won had they not attacked Russia. The British Army
was no match. For that matter, if the Russians hadn't bled the Germans
the Western Front may have held.

The Japanese never had a chance. And if the Japanese hadn't attacked the
US, the US may never have put any troops in.

The German armor, planes and Wehrmacht were first rate.

As to 'why'. I enjoy jabbing a pin in his ass - at least he feels it.

I suspect a brick has more sense than 'news'.
