Submersible Robot Diesel Recycles Its Exhaust

An Anonymous Coward writes: "This might be a good weekend topic to kick around. Trends in Japan has a short article on an undersea robot that uses a contained diesel. 'The engine itself is a completely closed system that needs no intake of air to run and chemically processes exhaust gas inside the robot. On-board devices reinfuse the exhaust with oxygen after removing its carbon dioxide and reuse the gas in the fuel mixture. The seawater is kept clean, as no gas is released.' Any /.'s working with this tech? Can it be applied to low emission vehicles?"

      Normally, I think prostitution is morally repugnant. However, for a 27 yr old virgin, with no realistic prospects, I find it hard to not recommend it myself. Also, don't worry about getting caught, there's not a judge in the world that would find you guilty of solicitation, after hearing your story.

      Also, try calling escort services first. You won't feel like everyone is staring at you, and they come to you, not vice versa. Just be sure to give mommy and daddy some extra spending money, and tell them to go to a movie or something.

    If I understand turbo correctly, all it does is take some of the pressure from the exhaust gas and uses that to force more air into the intake, consuming more fuel but also providing more power.

    Correct. A turbocharger (technically, they're called turbosuperchargers, the nomenclature you'll find in older literature) simply captures kinetic energy and heat energy (via gas expansion) from the hot exhaust gasses and uses that energy to stuff more air into the engine's intake. This results in a denser fuel/air charge and volumetric efficiency of over 100%. Plain old superchargers do the same thing, but are driven directly by the engine rather than by the exhaust. Now that they can be made cheaply, superchargers are gaining in popularity (check out some of Mercedes new motors) since they avoid the "turbo lag problem, and also provide a cooler intake charge (the centrifugal compressors in most turbos put a lot of paddle wheel work into the air.)

    As an aside, high performance normally aspirated engines (no turbo or supercharger) can also exceed 100% volumetric efficiency, but not by a whole lot. A good turbocharger or supercharger system does *amazing* things to the performance and efficiency of a car, and if you take good care of them (use really good oil and change it religiously), they aren't a significant maintenance problem.

    I'm always surprised that we don't have more multidisciplinary hackers here on /. that are also capable of mech hacking. It's a different, but very similar art.

    HISPANICS, ITALIAN FUCKS ETC.??? WHY DO I REALLY HATE THEM??

    BECAUSE A LITTLE NIGGER BITCH FUCKED AROUND WITH ME ONCE!!!!!!!!!!

    I HATE LITTLE NIGGER GIRLS SO MUCH I WANT TO RAPE THEM. So one day I
    was
    waiting by a school, looking at the little nigger bitches playing
    behind
    the fence. Dumb bitches. With their little pink smelly pussies sweating
    and rubbing against their pink little panties. I bet the panties were
    all
    wet and smelly with their young juices. I hated the little bastards so
    much my huge dick got very hard. I wanted to fuck and kill them.

    So I waited until they got out of school, and lured one of them into my
    car.. with my intelligence it was no problem. I just told the little
    nig
    her father had fallen ill and he had told me to pick her up. Dumb
    little
    8-year old nigger bitch. So young, and she already looked like a
    nigger.
    Thick lips, black curly hair, wide open unsuspecting white eyeballs,
    pink
    shiny gums.. As she sat next to me in the car, I was sure I could sense
    the smell of her little nigger pussy. FUCKING BITCH I thought. She's
    trying to seduce me.. the BITCH!!!!

    I drove to my house, the little bitch only asked dumb questions about
    her

    ape father. As soon as I was sure nobody was watching, I punched the
    nigger in the face. She dropped right away. Damn I was great! I dragged
    her in through the back door, with my huge dick aching in my jeans. No,
    I
    DON'T WANT TO FUCK THESE LITTLE NIGGAS BECAUSE I LIKE THEM. NO. I DO IT
    BECAUSE I HATE THEM. FUCK THEM ALL. FUCK WHAT THEY THINK. So I layed
    her
    on the floor and started removing her clothes in fury. I stripped her
    down to her panties. At that time she was starting to wake up, and the
    little bitch started to scream. Fuck it. I slammed her face again, and
    started to sniff her soiled little panties. Damn these nigger children
    sure smelled exciting, if nothing else. I could see her panties soiled
    yellow with young dried pussy juice and pee. Naughty fucking nigger,
    why
    don't you change your panties, I thought. I started eating her while
    she
    was lying there trembling. But the fucking bitch started to pee. Her
    white panties were all wet with fucking nigger piss. DUMB FUCKING BITCH
    CAN'T HOLD IT! I beat her again and shoved my throbbing cock into her
    tight red slit. Fuck I hated it. There was blood everywhere, and the
    bitch was screaming like mad. This had to end!

    I was soon finished, so I beat her black chest with my fist so many
    times
    she no longer made a sound. Fuck she looked horrible. The expression on
    her little nigger face was enough to scare the dead. I hated every cell
    of her stinking body. I realized I was still beating her into pulp, so
    I
    snapped out of it. She was a mess. I could smell blood, shit, piss,
    pussy, puke.. I threw up on her. FUCK YOU!! Now I was mad!!! Coming in
    my
    house and messing the place up like this. I got up and jumped on her
    face. It literally came off. Shit you little nigger. I hope your father
    will see this. Monkey man.

    I packed her into a cardboard box (niggers love them) and cleaned
    myself
    up. It was dark now, so I put the box in my car and drove some miles
    out
    of town. I left the box on the side of the road, so some asshole is
    bound
    to find it. I hope it's a nigger who found the box. A fucking worthless
    nigger.

    Subaru does it through the efficient design of their AWD (all wheel drive) system. They have a front-to-rear limited slip differential, which is basically 4 disc that sit in a sealed pool of liquid that becomes less vicious when the discs stop to spin. For example, if the rear left real starts to slip, it's corresponding disc stops spinning and the liquid around it basically gels. The friction causes the other discs to encounter resistance, which the onboard computer picks up on and trasfers the power to the other wheels. The exhaust comes into play because the force from the exhause gets pushed back into the differential, causing the liuid to gel across all the discs. The computer picks up on this and uses the excess power (from the exhaust) to be transfered to all the wheels. A very cool system. Audi uses a very similar system.
