Contribution of the Course to Professional Development |
To provide the student's gaining knowledge about the general characteristics of the classical fuels (gasoline, diesel) and alternative fuels (LPG, natural gas, hydrogen, methanol, ethanol, biodisel, etc.), the conversion systems which are used to make the vehicle functional for the use of alternative fuel and making comparison of the vehicles which are converted to use of alternative fuels or only used for classical fuels in behalf of conversion cost, durability, performance (cost, moment, specific fuel consumption) and exhaust emissions. |
