There is one more battery cooling tech that I prefer the most between passive air and active liquid/gas - active air cooling. Heated/cooled air blown from HVAC through battery. Pioneer Mitsubishi iMiEV used that. And Hyundai Ioniq also tried this. Works well. I estimate that it is suitable for charge rates up to 100kW - that is medium segment EV.

Hydrogen combustion engine does not work well enough. BMW did already try. "BMW Hydrogen 7". A good try but not possible (ICE efficiency not acceptable).

24:10 no, the actual spark ignition in most cars happens before top dead centre. This is where the term "ignition advance" comes from. However it takes a finite time for the spark to ignite the fuel/air mixture and for combustion to build up maximum pressure in the cylinder, so this build up of pressure (not the spark itself) is happening after top dead centre.

The spark happens before TDC because the flame front travels at a pretty much known speed. (it's easy to look up flame speed of various fuels, several online resources) For max torque, the max cylinder pressure needs to occur around 14 degrees after TDC (due to connecting rod length and angularity the exact position varies slightly) Fuel air ratio too lean or too rich can cause problems as the flame front speed and max pressure changes causing knock or lack of power/miss-fire. (or both) A lean F/A ratio or over advanced ignition generally leads to spontaneous combustion instead of a smooth burn with max cylinder pressure happening before or very close to TDC

Very interesting presentation! I used to use Mobil 1 0W-40 (group 3) in my 911 as it is advertised as “full” synthetic, but didn’t know that this wasn’t the same as the label of 100% synthetic which Motul 8100 Xcess is, so made the switch to the group 4 Motul oil. My oil consumption has since gone down 50% after the switch.

Hi! Great to see that you have an interest in the subject! Just one thing - Motul 8100 Xcess is a Group III crude-derived synthetic not Gp IV.

I know this video is a year old, but I would like your opinion on the possible increased engine wear to the consumer going to thinner oils. IE, a video where you discuss if the consumer was willing to give up the 0.5-1.0 or MPG gain...would using a higher weight oil be "better" tot he consumer (the person who would have to pay for internal engine wear repairs). Many of us understand the manufacture may be using the thinner oil to meet a target MPG or "credit" from the Government and only cares about the engine for it's warranty period.

I went through everything more or less in the sequence you covered it. I was a motorcycle technician but over 50+ years learned a lot about engine design, lubricants and various technologies related to engine performance. Trained as a machinist working to 3~5 micron tolerances Lower viscosity oils require a much better bearing finish and closer bearing tolerances, it's 'relatively' easy for manufacturers but does require better maching equipment which increases cost (a $$3~500,000 machine will need replacing with a $1,500,00 machine ) Removal of ZDDP is mainly driven by automotive industry as catalytic converters are covered for up to 7 years irrespective of mileage and basically manufacturers don't want to pay for replacements. I remember reading optimum ZDDP level is around 1800PPM, much high can cause problems with any bronze bearings or bushings. most engine oils to around 2015 had lowered ZDDP levels to 7~1200PPM I've never liked Castrol engine oils although I used Castrol fork oil in many motorcycles as it works well (although last several years there are oils with better VI index and mainly use Silkolene) As for 'vegatable oils 'Castrol R' castor oil was used a lot for racing. Water based cooling is at least 10x more effective than oil based cooling. Flame speed of hydrogen is phenomenally fast compared to all other conventional fuels and can pretty much be classed as instantaneous (www.sciencedirect.com/topics/engineering/flame-speed)

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, you have the ability to explain complex things in a very didactic way. High level content, thanks again.

From Assyria 3000 BCE , to Petroff 1833 - Hardy 1922 , to Beauchamp Tower and Osborne Reynolds , Lord Reyleigh ,to Dr Herman Zorn of I.G. Farben./ Dr . W.A. Zisman ( NRL ) .

Modern two stroke oils are just wonderful. No more annual de coking cylinders and unsticking rings. No more burning the carbon out of clogged mufflers and no more being surrounded in smoke as you do a big cut.

A concern I have is it's getting harder to find 10w30 for my 3800 GM cars. Already it's hard to get mobil1 without getting the high mileage stuff. I don't like the idea of seal swellers and conditioners when I'm not leaking oil. I like Mobil 1 and have great results over 30+ years but now I have to use Valvoline and Pennzoil. Which are probably fine but I'd prefer Mobil 1.

My favorite solution to pre-ignition or knock is water or methanol injection.

Otherwise some of the smaller companies like Ravenol, Torco, Amsoil and Driven are known for full synthetic formulations.

With regard to the EV. How often are you expected to change the transmission oil. Are they cars sold on the basis of fill for life. With regard to cooling the battery , power electronics and the motor I thought they use a water glycol coolant on the basis of safety (non flammable in case of thermal run aways ).

True, I think the OEMs are just specifically calling out LSPI because it's now a problem in completely stock engines.

It's not splitting hairs, it understanding that traditional preignition and LSPI are not the same thing and are not caused by the same conditions. LSPI is only a problem in direct injection engines, it doesn't happen in port injection engines. that in itself should tell you that it's not as simple as you want to believe it to be. The fact is that LSPI is directly caused by higher levels of fuel dilution in the oil which it self is a result of the fact that direct injection engines don't atomise and vaporise the fuel as well as a port injection engine does. That fuel dilution reacts with the calcium and sodium detergents, the result of that is a chemical with a very low octane rating forming in the oil. When the oil is heated to is vaporisation temp, generally when it contacts the under side of the pistons, that chemical is drawn in to the intake through the PCV system, it creates localised extremely low octane areas in the combustion chamber. and that is where the LSPI happens. it has nothing to do with the fuels octane rating or the amount charge pressure.

Navistar did a poor job cleaning casting sand from the blocks, which in turn caused untold oil cooler failures, which resulted in ruptured egr coolers. There's also poor quality control in casting the heads and lack of quality machining. The issues are easily addressed, and then it's a phenomenal motor.
