  1. Presented By Zhangzhengrong(Justin) Feng, Victor Li Comparing efficiencies of Flyingautomobiles

  2. Initiative • Why flying cars? • Future solutions for transportation jams • Shorter travelling times for longer distances where the use of aircraft is unnecessary • Affordable/ Environment friendly

  3. Focus • Two flying automobiles currently being developed that will be practical and viable for the future • Moller M400 Skycar by Moller International & The Transition by Terrafugia

  4. Engine of Moller M400 Skycar: Rotapower Engine

  5. Rotapower Engine • Engine Cycle: • Air and fuel intake Compression • InginitionCombustionExhaust • Data Needed: • Power-to-weight ratio • Efficiency Formula • Detailed information of the engine’s use of energy and output

  6. Engine of The Transition:

  7. Rotax 912S DCDI • 4 cylinder, 4 stroke liquid/air cooled engine: intake, compression, power, and exhaust • Data needed: • Efficiency, power to weight ratio, fuel consumption, thermodynamic analysis using Otto cycle
