Re: Demo: 2.slow electric supercharger
a) it's spelt "continuous" not "continuas" might help to run a spell checker to look more professional
b) are you draining the battery to zero volts, or close to? The graph kind of reflects that on charging. You're probably aware that lion doesn't like to be drained, and with a "cycle life" of 5,000 that only allows for 13 uses a day in a year. One night of cruising with a group and you'll use at least 50-100 uses.
c) The size of the outlet/inlet and the turbine may create a performance issue when the motor is not powered under normal driving? The engine will have to suck a great deal harder to obtain an effecient amount of air. You'd need the motor to be powered constantly with a custom pwm/rpm table for each vehicle to makeup for the loss of regular drivability power. pic
d) Using a brushless motor was a very smart idea and it probably can spin at an insane speed. It is a great technology. The motor is most likely 18 or 24 volts, that's why it can't run off the car battery/alternator
e) Venting the valve cover to atmosphere won't make it DOT street legal. It will only work in a province like Alberta which does not have a smog test.
f) I'd be curious to see a MAF voltage log (not cfm) of the same car with and without the unit installed/engaged.
It would be neat if your system works. A little on the expensive side. It will be more cost effective and faster to install nitrous with a dry 15 shot. Or a wet 35+ shot. And those are very very very safe nozzles with greater gains for a better price. Work on your pricing .. I know that is tough as a startup.
If you'd like, we can put you on a dyno one evening as a third party to validate your claims. i had mentioned it before and the offer still stands. If your system does indeed work, having a bunch of us and a reputable company backup your claims will help sales. Let me know and we'll work something out when i'm back in town next week
