BUT what if water vapour was injected?
Heat would be absorbed by the expansion of the water and so maintaining safe
operating temp???
I went to a seminar/got a book several years ago about getting better
mileage. One of the "simple" things was "water injection." Instead of
the old "bubbling bottle" or a spray injection his preference was actually
for steam injection. Or, what most call steam. The idea was to use a
washer pump and nozzle to spray under a shield over the exhaust then
suck the vapor in the intake. It's not quite full steam at that point so
the added expansion helps control hot spots and adds extra power.
Something about steam expanding more than the loss in volumt due
to the heat it takes to make it or something along that thought.
