Authors Abstract
Content
This paper describes a radical new approach to variable flow oil pump design, which addresses some concerns of earlier designs and also conventional fixed displacement pumps. Detailed here are the testing and results to date, the potential areas for the future work, together with the reduction in parasitic power loss and potential fuel consumption savings. Also discussed are the benefits that can be realised by using this product as a tool for radically changing current automotive lubrication systems.
