Source of Engine Knocks

Again, a driver can undertake to
beat this apparent waste in gasoline hy
/ increasing the compression. But when
given a stiff hill to climb or heavy
load or if there is slight accumula-
tion of carbon the engine will knock
and cause trouble.
Well, what happens to this so per
cent? The water jacket is to blame for
about 35 per cent of it. This loss
through the water jacket is necessary
in order to keep the various parts cool
enough to operate. The temperature of
/ the burning mixture is around 5000
/ degrees. This extreme heat when
brought in contact with the metal parts
! Of the engine would burn the lubricat-
ing oil from their surfaces so that the
piston could not slide up and down in
I the cylinders. 1t would heat these
{ metal parts red hot, in which case It
would be impossible to control the igni-
tlon. Sometimes an engine VIII run
after the ignition is turned off, if the
cylinders are 100 hot. This is caused
/ by pre-ignition. On the other hand,
overheating these cylinders causes them
to "freeze' or become stuck, which
makes d lot of trouble
The purpose of the water Jacket is
to cool these metal parts so that
film of oil can be maintained. In doing
this, however, much of the heat gen
Grated by the gasoline is carried off
and consequently cannot be used in
sending the car forward.
Another 35 per cent is accounted for
by the exhaust 1t would be impracti-
cable to design an engine that would
expand the gas down to no pressure; in
other words, to use all the pressure.
Such an engine would need to be very
bulky and heavy as contrasted with the
present types.
The exhaust valve is set to open
when there is still iderable pres
sure in the cylinders. This pressure
means, Of course, that there is still
heat in the cylinders, that the gas
heat engine; that is, it derives it's
power from heat Therefore, when the
exhaust valve is open while there is
still heat in the engine about 35 per
cent of the heat is being lost of the
total amount generated by burning the
gasoline. Another reason why this loss
is necessary is because time must be
given to clean the cylinders of burning
gas on one stroke so it can take in a
charge of fresh gas on the next.
Loss Through Friction
The other 10 per cent is lost through
;,
mostly friction. In order to use the
heat developed it is necessary to have
some sort of mechanical contrivance
or devices that slide in the cylinders
such as the pistons in the cylinders
and the bearings that hold the crank
shaft in place. Wherever these sliding
parts come there also comes friction.
Then some power must be used to
operate the cooling fan. the valves, lu
bricating pump, ignition device, gener-
ator for charging the batteries, and in
some cases the water circulating pump.
Like The estimates which one finds
in q budget book on what percentage
OF a given income should be used to
feed four hungry mouths for month.
these percentages may not apply eX-
actly in all cases. But they are sort
of average for most engines
To be sure, to get as much as 20 per
cent gasoline efficiency great care
should be given to keeping the car

BY II. Clifford Brokaw

II any one should intimate that YOU
would be foolish enough to part with
good, hard earned cash for a machine
that would prove to be only about 90
per cent efficient your vocabulary
would doubtless be taxed adequately to
cypress your opinion of such a person.
Yet ii is q startling fact that this is
Just what some ten million folks in
America have done who have taken
unto themselves an automobile That
is what YOU have done if YOU own a car
or motor boat that has gasoline en-
gine in ii. In fact. you are lucky if
you get out if it that we'll.
The gasoline engine in an automobile
is about 20 per cent efficient. That
means that for every dollar you invest
IN gasoline which you feed into your
can the engine turns out about 90 cents
worth of useful work.
This does not mean, however. that so
per cen- Of the gasoline is wasted. It is
not. 1t is merely necessary to use the
50 per cent in other ways TO get the 20
pcr cent applied directly or the bust
ness OF taking YOU from where you are
TO where YOU want to 90. But there arc
numerous ways that waste may occur
so that you may get considerably less
than 20 per cent of go-ahcad power.
Motor so Per Cent Efficient
When one considers that an electric
motor is about so per cent efficient one
wonders why they are not more popu-
lar. 1t is because there are other fac
tors in operating electric cars that
offset this seeming advantage. The
electric car does not have as great a
radius of travel. That is. ono cannot
gon on as long trip without having
to take aboard a new supply Of power
There is not as great range of speed
either. One cannot cover the ground
so fast in an electric car. And people
IKE TO get to where they are going
Sometimes they like to get there in
a hurry 1t is not always easy to find a
place on the road where the battery
Of an electric car can be recharged, and
where one is found it takes several
hours to get the job done.
SO the car with its gasoline engine
has some points to offset what seems
to be a low percentage of gasoline
effectiveness. At any rate. this per
centaGe in a gasoline engine is greater
than 1T is in steam engine.
1t really would be possible for a gas
oline engine to do better than twenty
per cent. Engineers through countless
experiments have developed many de-
tails of design that would make it pos
s'be to get better than 20 per cent.
But they do not prove satisfactory in
actual operation because they sacrifice
ease and comfort in operating the car.
These engineers have done much to
make the present 20 per cent possible,
but owners very sensibly do not want
greater mileage per gallon of gas at
sacrifice of convenience in running
their cars.
For instance driver may adjust the
carburetor so that a yer. lean mixtures
of gas IS used. This would give him a
hIgh mileage per gallon of gas, but
would make acceleration very slow, hill
cllmDlng ability very poor and regular
running of the engine difficult when
the engine is at low Temperature.
Such condition also requires eXcep-
tlonai skill in driving to get desirable
results.
