LN2000: The University of Washington Liquid Nitrogen
Propelled Automobile
-
"The University of Washington is developing a new
zero-emission automobile propulsion concept that uses liquid
nitrogen as the fuel. The principle of operation is like
that of a steam engine, except there is no fire or steam.
Instead, liquid nitrogen at -320 F (77 K) is pressurized and
then vaporized in a heat exchanger by the ambient
temperature of the surrounding air."
