One minute of nitrogen acceleration, unprecedented pleasure.

I believe that whether you play racing games or watch racing movies, you must be familiar with the word nitrogen acceleration. It is precisely because nitrogen acceleration is often seen in racing games and movies, but rarely seen in daily life, so many people are wondering whether nitrogen acceleration is true or not.

The first thing that can be determined is that nitrogen acceleration does exist, but it is not nitrogen but nitrous oxide, which is also commonly known as nitrous oxide. In fact, as early as World War II, the German Air Force began to use NOS, which was gradually used in the linear acceleration events of civil cars after the war, and the nitrogen acceleration system (NOS) was developed by Huali Company of the United States.

The working principle of the nitrogen acceleration system is that N2O forms a high-pressure liquid state, then it is put into a steel cylinder, and then it is mixed with fuel in the engine as an accelerant, in which N2O generates two nitrogen atoms and one oxygen atom at high temperature to support combustion and cool the cylinder. This increases the integrity of fuel combustion and improves the power.

The net weight of the special gas storage tank for storing N2O is about 6.7kg, which is about 1 1kg after being filled with N2O. According to the expert's advice, the NOS system should not be used for more than 1 minute at a time, and a bottle of gas can be used for about 3538 times. Whether in games, movies or real life, nitrogen acceleration can only be used for a short time, not for a long time. In real life, safety is the main consideration.

When accelerating with nitrogen, the engine will bear a great load, which will cause a lot of loss of the cylinder, and may even cause permanent damage to the cylinder when it is used. In addition, when the throttle valve is fully opened, nitrogen must be injected to accelerate. If the gas supply is continued under the condition of insufficient throttle opening or closing, nitrous oxide will flow backwards, and even backfire in serious cases, which is easy to damage the flowmeter or air core. Using nitrogen to accelerate for a long time will lead to excessive pressure in the combustion chamber and a sharp rise in temperature, leading to cylinder explosion.
