The Fission's Engine Design in Detail...
Creating the Fission will involve first developing an extremely efficient nuclear powered thermal 'heat' engine used alongside a hybrid battery system powering an onboard motor. The nuclear powered thermal 'heat' engine will also aid in charging the hybrid battery system with the onboard motor and generating its own electricity within the system. This project will consider the best possible nuclear power thermal outputs to use. Currently the planned thermal outputs to be used is hydrogen and electricity, with the hydrogen created through electrolysis with an on-board electrolyser powered by the thermal nuclear 'heat' engine, and electricity generated from a small on board turbine system, to create hydrogen gas. The 'all-electric' accelerated motor model will be powered from electricity generated by the Fission's onboard nuclear powered thermal 'heat' engine system, using an efficient 'all-electric' motor to run the vehicle, while requiring no 'charging' and having no 'driving range' limitations. The Fission's 'Hydrogen' accelerated vehicle model will use a hydrogen style hybrid combustion motor and a hydrogen power cell stack electric motor to power the vehicle alongside a hydrogen gas compressor, as well as using a mechanical generator system for self-charging its own on-board hybrid battery electric motor system. With an onboard efficient atmospheric air to water generator being used to produce the water necessary to split its molecules through electrolysis and form the hydrogen gas. With the vehicle entirely producing its own compressed hydrogen gas and electricity needed to run the motor vehicle.
The vehicle's nuclear powered thermal 'heat' engine will provide the energy to produce the vehicle's own hydrogen that will be stored in a 'reserve tank' to be fed into both the hydrogen-hybrid combustion motor and to the hydrogen fuel cell stack for powering the hydrogen powered electric motor. The idea of using a hydrogen fuel cell stack powered electric motor is to provide more power to the electric motor, depending on the efficiency of the hydrogen power fuel cell, rather than just feeding electricity directly to the electric motor. With the on-board hybrid battery motor system generating additional electricity for powering the electric motor, with the electric generator using available mechanical energy being produced from the dual hydrogen combustion motor and the hydrogen fuel cell stack powered electric motor system. It will also be determined if a more efficient hydrogen-hybrid combustion motor or hydrogen fuel cell powered motor system could be used alone, all while still using the hydrogen as efficiently as possible. This is in addition to determining if it might be best to store the vehicle's self-produced hydrogen as a liquid rather than a gas, and use the thermal heat from the nuclear thermal 'heat' engine mixed with the liquid hydrogen to create a high thrust output for powering a high-temp/pressure hydrogen combustion hybrid engine for more efficiency, rather than a standard hydrogen gas combustion hybrid engine. The Fission will use efficient hydrogen motors just like those already seen on the market today, except this vehicle will never require fueling up as it self-produces its own hydrogen through the nuclear powered thermal 'heat' engine. The vehicle will also have an efficient exhaust heat cooling/recycling system to most efficiently cool/recycle and reuse exhaust heat to other resources in the vehicles system.
This project will also considering if it will be possible to develop an efficient modern steam powered hybrid motor that can be as effective and nearly as powerful as a hydrogen powered hybrid motor. With the nuclear powered thermal 'heat' engine being used to produce heat and steam, instead of hydrogen, all for powering a modern 'steam' powered hybrid motor. All while still using an onboard hybrid battery system and hybrid motor for the modern efficient steam powered hybrid system. The other consideration is if the vehicle should have a dual 'hydrogen' and 'steam' engine and feature that can be turned on or off depending on driving conditions, with it having an on-board duo hydrogen/steam hybrid motor system working in sync with the hybrid battery system and the nuclear powered thermal heat engine. Thus using as little 'nuclear power box' energy as possible, while maintaining a highly powered hybrid battery system. And if a 'dual hydrogen/steam' version is not initially released, its possible that two different vehicle models could be released, one being the Steam Accelerated model, and the other being the Hydrogen Accelerated model. Both editions must pass the performance test on every level. The entire vehicle's engine system will be self-contained, self-powered and self-running, requiring no outside fuel sources and no outside charging. Additionally, as technology continues to develop, its likely that Hydrogen-hybrid motors as well as a Steam-hybrid motor systems will exceed efficiency, power and performance found in an 'all-electric' motor. Every model of the Fission will be nuclear thermal 'heat' engine powered, including the 'all electric' accelerated model.
The vehicle will be able to travel from California to New York without ever needing to be fueled up or 'charged'. As the vehicle's self-operating system will continue running the vehicle without any added fuel source needed. There will be no 'mile range' limitations with this vehicle, as is a problem all-electric vehicles, gas-hybrids, and even gas-only vehicles. This will be the first vehicle on the market to have no 'mile range' limitations. The hopeful 'goal' for 'fuel' maintenance is that this vehicle will only require its onboard 'nuclear power box' to be recharged/replaced every 5 to 7 years, with its hybrid battery needing replacement every 10 years through standard wear. With the 'nuclear power box' contained within a very safe and effective core shielding box system, designed simple enough for an every day mechanic to easily replace the nuclear power box during maintenance, just like replacing a car battery. And as technology and development increases, its hopeful that the onboard 'nuclear power box' can last up to 10 years without requiring recharging/replacement. Additionally a Fission service center would need to be built in the region where the vehicle is first released. Having mechanics specially trained to work on the Fission. More Fission service centers and dealerships would be opened in additional regions as the vehicle is released in more areas. After the vehicles are out long enough, then it will be possible for your everyday mechanic that is non-fission certified to learn how to work on the Fission vehicles in their own repair shops not part of Fission.
