Transonic Combustion

A start up called Transonic Combustion  claims they can improve fuel efficiencies of engines by over 50%. They claim their fuel-injection system will get 17 Kilometers per liter of petrol in a mid sized car.

Transonic’s fuel-injection system is supposedly better because it “uses supercritical fluids and requires no spark to ignite the fuel. The super-critical fluid is mixed with air before injected into the cylinder. The heat and pressure, in the cylinder, alone is enough to cause the fuel to combust without a spark.” That spark-free ignition process along with some proprietary software makes this particular fuel-injection system different from direct injection systems and supposedly helps make it so ultra-efficient.

Transonic says that they hope to place the technology in production cars by 2014
