Abstract:
A system for greatly improving the reduction of fuel consumption in a diesel internal combustion engine used in a truck comprising:exhaust manifold insulation formed by a laminate that includes a radiating fabric, a thermal heat insulating fabric, a thermal insulating wrap and a wire mesh fabric joined together in a laminate and sized and shaped to cover the exhaust manifold of a diesel internal combustion engine mounted in a truck compartment to reduce compartment heating; drive turbine insulation wrap sized and shaped to cover a drive turbine of a turbocharger used on a diesel internal combustion engine in a truck compartment formed by a laminate that includes a radiating fabric, a thermal heat insulating fabric, a thermal insulating wrap and a wire mesh fabric joined together in a laminate and sized and shaped to cover said drive turbine, said drive turbine insulation wrap having an area left uncovered near the bearings of said drive turbine; compressor insulation wrap sized and shaped to cover a compressor of a turbocharger used on a diesel internal combustion engine in a truck compartment formed by a laminate that includes a radiating fabric, a thermal heat insulating fabric, a thermal insulating wrap and a wire mesh fabric joined together in a laminate and sized and shaped to cover the said compressor; plenum insulation wrap for covering the intake air plenum on a diesel internal combustion engine that transports ambient air to the turbo charger formed by a laminate that includes a radiating aluminum foil, a thermal heat insulating fabric and an adhesive layer; air box insulation wrap for covering the intake air box that gathers ambient air from outside the engine compartment of a diesel internal combustion engine formed by a laminate that includes a radiating aluminum foil, a thermal heat insulating fabric and an adhesive; and hood insulation for covering the inside of the hood of a diesel internal combustion engine formed by a laminate that includes a radiating aluminum foil, a thermal heat insulating fabric and an adhesive, attached to the hood facing an engine compartment for thermally insulating said hood.
