Lets say the dissocoator is using 125 amps at 12V... 1500W... 2HP...
Lets assume the disoociation is 80% efficient. So we have 1200W we can
get back from burning the H2. Almost 2HP. If the car was using 20HP to
cruise with the gizmo off and was getting Xmpg, when he switches it
on, I suppose he is now using 22HP to cruise at the same speed, and
gettin X-Ympg. Now adding the H2 cancels out the Y and we are back to
X mgp like before. Wheres the win?

Damn usenet. I can spell dissociation under some carefully controlled

If we try to help Dr. Pajak get this discussion back on track, we will
find that he is famous for many things, including the invention of a
perpetual motion machine and his philosophy of "totalizm," which
offers many comforting notions to us poor struggling "eaters of
bread."

The perpetual motion machine draws "free energy" (meaning, I suppose,
not the Gibbs or Helmholtz free energy of statistical mechanics, but
rather energy that costs nothing) from the environment, like a heat
pump, he says.

If this retired professor from the University of Borneo and other
Asian institutions can get any recognition for his invention, then
that will mark the end of the crushing effects of the dark forces of
evil that he describes so well in his autobiography as having defeated
him at almost every turn of his life. It is amazing that he has
survived already into his 60's without having been killed by these
dark forces, which have, however, prevented him from qualifying for
unemployment benefits.

40% for diesel and large high pressure ratio gas turbines.

So higher efficiency could mean higher NOx and more emissions/gallon.

Higher efficiency would mean spreading diesel emissions over more
miles for a lower number.

It makes sense if you merely got it backwards.
