Wet combustion and water vapor pump-cycle efficiency /

In the past, water was used as an anti-knock agent or as an ""additive"" component to improve combustion quality and to boost engine power. Today, in a context of severe environmental requirements and energy saving responsibilities, the proper use of water continues to offer many...
