MACH ONE SPEED AUTOMOTIVE ENGINE

An automobile engine is specially designed to liberate a particular amount of power at a required speed that in turn drives the automobile. Unlike the jet engines, whose main purpose is to provide thrust, the main purpose of the automotive engine is to produce torque which is required to run the automobile on ground. Higher is the torque lesser becomes the speed. Fighter jets equipped with turbojet engines can go fast enough to cross the sound barrier and can travel beyond mach one speed. But in case of automobiles it is quite impossible. Since a high torque is required to run the vehicle on ground the speed decreases. But keeping the required amount of torque constant if the power delivered by the engine can be increased beyond maximum the speed of the vehicle will increase. So, a special type of engine can be designed using suitable materials and calculated values that can drive a vehicle beyond mach one speed with the required amount of torque on ground called the Mach One Speed Automotive Engine (M1SAE).



The Mach One Speed Automotive engine (M1SAE) can be a unique piece of art. It can make history by being the first engine to run a car that can cross the sound barrier. The designs of various automotive engine parts are made within the safely limits and can be manufactured practically. Like the designs of the engine cylinder, piston and connecting rod other engine parts like the crankshaft, flywheel, etc. can also be designed similarly using the given data. Most of the calculations made are based upon assumptions and considered data. Hence the above calculated dimensions of various components are based upon theoretical analysis. However the M1SAE engine needs a practical verification of the calculations to come into existence and to be used practically. The necessary power could be generated by the engine at required torque to run the vehicle at 11000 RPM thus making the car run at the speed of Mach 1 and hence the fastest car on earth.
