A White Paper on Quasiturbine Technology
Quantum Parallel: The
Saint-Hilaire "Quasiturbine"
As The Basis For A Simultaneous Paradigm Shift in Vehicle Propulsion
Systems
Amidst
myriad, and many times unsupportable, claims of technological
breakthroughs capable -- fuel cells being at the top of this contention
-- of inducing vehicular design and engineering paradigm shifts, we have
concluded that the Saint-Hilaire "Quasiturbine" may very well provide
impetus to retire the piston engine. It has served humanity for nearly
two centuries, and has earned its rest.
eMOTION!
REPORTS.com is providing a
comprehensive white paper that will perhaps allow you to reach the same
conclusion...

The author introduction note is as follows :
In the context of the international environmental and resources
depletion discussions such as the Kyoto Accord, and taking into account
the general population conviction that climate changes are currently
endangering our planet, there is a new sense of urgency mandating that
no energy technologies can be discarded, and this is particularly true
of any sound engine concept breakthroughs. The Quasiturbine technology
is among the very few energy and environment tools we have to address
our present concerns, and one precious new means available to improve
our vital collective objective. It goes without saying that
acknowledging its existence may fall into the realm of a social
obligation. - Myron D. StokesA White Paper by a team of core journalists,

PRESSE RELEASE Dear readers, I trust you're well.
I'm attaching (see link below) for your review our latest press release, in French and English
versions,
relative to presentation of the below noted white paper on "Quasiturbine"
engine technology.
As noted in the release, we spent months interacting with Dr. Gilles
Saint-Hilaire and his team,
and have subsequently determined that the technology is profoundly deserving
of a high visibility position
among multiple efforts to produce more efficient and environmentally friendly,
vehicle propulsion systems.
You'll note that we include in this discussion current pursuits in the
direction of hydrogen fuel cells,
PAICE Hyderdrive, Toyota's Hybrid System and significant data on the
development
of hydrogen distribution infrastructure from the US Department of Energy and
Argonne National Labs.
In other areas, we look at the controversy surrounding the 2003 Formula One
World Championship,
ably analyzed by eMOTION! REPORTS.com Associate Publisher and Motorsports
Editor John Chuhran,
as well as archived analyses of Boeing's hierarchical and policy difficulties.
eMOTION! REPORTS.com (www.emotionreports.com) is an automotive/aerospace
industries research
and analysis site that targets professionals within the academic, media,
corporate and government sectors.
It has also created an environment wherein white papers
and other scholarly research can be presented to a broadened, yet still very
defined, audience.
I would very much appreciate your close consideration of the data and issues
presented.
Best and cheers, Myron

From the press Release :
... Questioned about the Toyota Hybrid System
www.toyota.com and the PAICE
Hyperdrive System www.paice.com , the
president of Quasiturbine Agence Inc., Dr. Gilles Saint-Hilaire explained
that " These are viable approaches for the near term because they are some
of the best practical ways to avoid the low-power-efficiency-penalty of the
today high power vehicle engine, used with only 15% average load factor. But
getting extra efficiency this way requires additional power components
and energy storage, with associated counter-productive
increases in weight, space, maintenance, cost and environmental recycling
process". However, in addition to the Otto internal combustion mode
Quasiturbine quasiturbine.promci.qc.ca
, Saint-Hilaire expects a rapid development of the photo-detonation
Quasiturbine in the next 5 years, taking full advantage of its unique short
and fast linear ramp pressure pulsed properties (This "knocking" mode is
almost impossible for the sinusoidal crankshaft piston engine to tolerate).
Such a photo-detonation Quasiturbine, notes Saint-Hilaire, "would have very
little low-power-efficiency-penalty, would be more
environment friendly as it would require low octane
additive-free gasoline or diesel fuel, would be multi-fuel compatible,
including direct hydrogen combustion, and would offer a
drastic reduction in the overall propulsion system weight,
size, maintenance and cost". This would tend to make the hybrid concept much
less attractive long term, until such time when fully
electric vehicles will efficiently "fuel" from the electrical grid." ...
