Summary

DISCUSSES THE OPERATION OF AUTOMOTIVE SPARK IGNITION ENGINES FUELLED BY NATURAL GAS. PERFORMANCE DATA ARE GIVEN, INCLUDING THE EFFICIENCY OF USE OF PRIMARY FUELS, FOR A REALISTIC RANGE OF OPERATING CONDITIONS. THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE COMBINED HEAT AND POWER PACKAGES COULD BE USED MORE EFFECTIVELY ARE IDENTIFIED AND TYPICAL OPERATING COSTS ARE PRESENTED. A NUMBER OF POTENTIALLY ATTRACTIVE USES ARE DESCRIBED AND THE NECESSARY CONDITIONS AND TENTATIVE TARGET COST TO FLOURISH, PARTICULARLY FOR DRIVING HEAT PUMPS, ARE INTRODUCED. (INT. BUILD. SERV.
