With the energy crisis and rising gas prices, people are increasingly interested in alternative forms of energy. For example, more and more of the Ukraine drivers started using wood as the driving energy of the car to reduce gasoline consumption. Flawless iPhone case
Development of the auto industry slowdown, with wood as fuel seems to be the most practical solution, although this technology is not only recently. It is understood that, decades ago, people began to use wood as a motivation to drive vehicles, they also are very popular during the first world war.
But in the modern era, people in most cases only as an experiment in this way, to prove that it is really possible. Now, the more Ukraine on their old cars, the driver installed wood burners and boilers, which are designed to be able to save gas money.
Youjin·qieernigefu, 36 years old last year put his old Opel into a wood-powered car. Rising gasoline prices make the drive to work every day becomes a very expensive thing. So he decided it was time to make some changes.
Did physics and mathematics teacher of Chernihiv on the Internet found some information on the use of wood as a fuel (including the scientific literature published in 1939), and it took two months to learn. He said understanding the relevant principles, the establishment of a fuel system is a simple matter.
Chernigov was installed later in his car a connected to the engine's wood-burning stove and a metal can. Gases produced by burning firewood is stored in metal cans, filtered and cooled and then into the engine. His car run 100 km takes about 40 pounds of wood, about 10 hryvnia (Ukraine coins, about 0.5 US dollars), compared with the average cost of a litre of petrol to 20 hryvnia.
Depending on the degree of wood and dried, the car's top speed can reach 60 miles per hour, which is a pretty good speed. Chernihiv said his plastic bottle can also be used as a fuel, but not as good as firewood. Whether you believe it or not, Chernigov said his old Opel after the refit was not only cheaper, but also more environmentally friendly, because his cars emit only water vapor and carbon dioxide.
Sergey from Donbass region several years ago designed his first wood-powered car, and said his success has left many people follow in his footsteps. Because he had installed in the fuel system in the trunk, so there's no police looking for his trouble.
In addition to the two being Ukraine media reported of the drivers, a lot of drivers in this new way to save gas money. Chernihiv in an interview with the media, said at least 6 drivers have carried out similar modifications on Google search can find plenty of pictures of modified wood car.
Ukraine Ministry of Interior spokesman said, using the energy to drive the car without registration is illegal, such technology must study in order to confirm that it is not for car people and other pedestrians at risk.
