Parasitic energy savings in engines using nanolubricants
The engine friction is one of the causes of power losses found in the operation of a vehicle. This friction is caused by the relative motion of moving components in an engine. As significant portion of an engine's generated power is used at low loads, a reduction in an engine friction would pro...
