Verification of concept requested
Jonscottharp
The basic concept is to cross-transfer the same mass in different forms (water and hydrogen & oxygen) between two different systems to produce a net gain output of electricity. Below is a 1-minute video of an animation. Please view and read the description with math equations. How would we verify this with an Ansys simulation?
YasserSelima
Please read about the first law of thermodynamics. I don't think Ansys can violate it ...n
Yes, I know the first law of thermodynamics well. The laws of thermodynamics govern energy conversions. But do they govern mass conversions? The electrolysis unit outputs to the fuel cell unit with a 20% loss as dictated by the laws of thermodynamics. The hydroelectric unit recovers the water byproduct from the fuel cell unit on a constant basis with an unchanging water-to-hydrogen conversion ratio of 9:1 and hydrogen-to-water conversion ratio of 1:9. That recovered mass of water is transferred through a penstock at a sufficient height and sent to a hydroelectric unit. It combines the hydroelectric output with the electrical output from the fuel cell unit. This part does not violate the laws of thermodynamics. This system has two electrical output ? one with partial recovery of energy, one with full efficiency. As for process control, the three separate units ? the electrolysis unit, fuel cell unit and hydroelectric unit do not provide feedback data because they are open systems as the laws of thermodynamics dictate. The process control is based on regulating the required input of each unit.nThe video shows you an engineered model of the Hydrological Cycle. It operates endlessly because of the recovery of mass (in this case water). nSo, my question to you is can Ansys simulate that? I have faith in you YasserSelima. Show me how Ansys can simulate the Hydrological Cycle and you will have answered my question.n
We can model fuel cells and the electro chemistry side of things (I didn't watch the whole video). As each section is independent I'd suggest reviewing the Twin Builder and ROM tools plus the various modules & options in Fluent.
Hi Rob, thanks for your answer. Yes, each section is independent. Great advice, though. I will check out Twin Builder and Fluent. As a retired guy, I am not very up-to-date on Ansys simulations. Thanks again!n
Looking at the system as an engineer I can see that energy enters & leaves the system based on the section of the cycle, and mass (overall) is conserved. I have reservations on the overall concept, but we're limited by export controls on here. n
Thanks for this. Concur with energy/mass balance cycle. There seem to be 3 issues: One, export controls, as you correctly pointed out. Second, is the balancing of gas/water velocities. And third, H2 purification & water recovery rates/energy consumption. nAs for export controls, I believe that the only way is to adjust input. All three nodes (electrolysis, reverse electrolysis and hydroelectric) would provide feed back data to a PID controller that could adjust input. For example, if a set rate is not being achieved with the electrolysis H2 output, a sensor would communicate to the controller to increase input. The electrolysis unit is designed in a configuration comprised of modules or cells, each with dedicated water lines and electric current. If the electrolysis unit has 100 cells, main operation would rely on perhaps 80 of them. But if the H2 output sensor detects a shortfall of even 1%, the controller would command 1 of the remaining 20 cells to compensate. nSimilar feedback loops would provide data showing output shortfalls for the fuel cell output of water. There would be twin verification points on water output ? flow rate from the condenser unit and the metrics on volume sensor/working weight within the upper reservoir. The feedback data would tell the controller to override the H2 feedback that says set point is OK, and that it needs more H2 so bring the appropriate number of electrolysis cells online.nVelocity rates can be controlled by pressure to slow down the gas velocity, or there 2D or 3D physical coiling could be employed. Overall, we want to keep energy consumption down.nAs for H2 purification & water recovery. For the former, centrifugal water/gas separators work quickly and consume little power as torque required for axial spin is generally minimal. As for the latter, there are micro mesh filters used in South Korea that allow for 100% separation of water and gas. It uses no energy. nRob, in your view, is this enough to simulate the system using Anysis? n
I actually meant export as in leaving the country: we're not allowed to say much on here as knowledge is an export and we (Ansys) counts as dual-use for US export controls. nIf each component is separate you're OK, and Fluent can handle it all with some extra coding in a few places if the existing models aren't quite there. If they're linked I don't think you gain anything, and actually lose energy (as Array says re the laws of thermodynamics). If storage is added into the system then it's potentially useful, but (big but) you'd need enough production to offset the storage costs. Modelling the system could use tools in Twin Builder (not part of Student) using data from many Fluent runs to figure all of that out. nWe see a designs with this problem every few years: the common issue is scale. The engineering principle is sound but the economics don't add up. We saw this in my BEng project, make a heat exchanger big enough to make the dP virtually zero so thermal efficiency is up, but we gained about 1% energy for a 200% price increase. n
Understand about the dual-use issue. Only say what is within your allowed parameters.nIt seems like your first answer contradicts the second answer. But let?s proceed onward.nWe completely expect to lose energy between the electrolysis and fuel cell link. This was known right from the start and the link was intentionally designed that way for this project. Our aim is to recover the water at the top of the unit and transfer it to a hydroelectric unit. In the start up phase, both the upper and lower reservoirs are filled to capacity with distilled water, and an in-system battery is charged to capacity. This is done with electricity from outside the system with the grid. nWith primary ignition, electricity from the grid is input to begin the water-to-hydrogen conversion process. The electrical input continues through the transfer process upwards and to the fuel cell unit and even as the fuel cell unit begins to output electricity, water and heat. Electric current input from the outside is continued until the moment when the hydroelectric unit starts outputting electricity.nThere will be an electrical output within the in-system transformer that exceeds the amount of electricity originally input from the grid. From that value in Mw, we use only the same value that was input at the start. nIf our hydroelectric head is less than 60 meters with a flow rate of 9,000 liters per second, material balance is recovered, but energy balance is not and the system breaks down. At 60 meters, the energy/mass balance is recovered, but there is no net gain. At a height of 60 meters with a flow rate of 9,000 liters per second, there is a slight gain. However, when the height is 200 to 300 to 400 to 500 meters the hydroelectric output is enormous. Keep in mind that the water-to-hydrogen conversion ratio is 9:1 and the water-to-hydrogen ratio is 1:9, meaning of course that like the Hydrological Cycle mass is conserved. We don?t care how much energy we lose transferring the water to the upper portion of the system. We just want it to output whatever amount of electricity it can, and give us back the water. And it does exactly that.nNumerous calculations have been conducted, even by the patent attorney who wrote up the specifications for the patent that was filed with the USPTO earlier this year. We have no intention of filing a useless patent application. The patent lawyer has impressive credentials: Master of Science and a PhD in jet engine design. He has successfully seen over 900 applications mature to a patent grant. And he would never risk his reputation with a process that doesn?t work.nAll we are asking for is a verification using the Ansys system. We have verified our results with the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory using their new IBM Summit system. It matches their previous simulations of the natural Hydrological Cycle exactly. nYou are with Ansys. Can you arrange for us to do a verification? It might be challenging, but it would be very good PR for Ansys. n
Right, I'd missed the hydroelectric part. You can try the contact us option on ansys.com but we tend to support clients (including academic institutes) for projects rather than do them ourselves. n

The in-game message of the day has updated for the March 25th Item Shop reset. Included was an announcement of a new LTM, The Floor Is Lava!
Epic Games has released a promotional image and description of the new The Floor Is Lava Limited Time Mode which will be coming soon to Fortnite.
As the title including and the image shows, the entire ground-level of the Fortnite Battle Royale map has turned into lava. The goal of the LTM is to stay off the ground and of course, the last team standing.
Get to high ground or build above the lava that's overtaking the island.  It is not known if this was a submission for the Fortnite Creative LTM Contest, which was announced on Thursday, March 21st. It's probably this was an original creation by Epic Games due to the amount of time between the announcement and the complexities involved.
What is your thoughts on and LTM based which revolves around staying off the ground, as The Floor Is Lava includes?
Stay tuned to @FortniteINTEL / FortniteINTEL.com for full coverage and to be notified when The Floor Is Lava releases!

Celebrating Nursing: Answering the Call
By Shirley Roberts
National Nursing Week annual celebrations take place May 10-16, 2021, the same week as Florence Nightingale's birthday, May 12. Nightingale (1820-1910) was a social reformer and widely credited with being the founder of modern nursing.
The theme this year #WeAnswerTheCall was developed by The Canadian Nursing Association to showcase the many roles that nurses play in a patient's health-care journey. The pandemic brought to light the courage and commitment that nurses work with every day and highlights the important role that nurses play in the fight against COVID-19.
Two nurses employed at Michael Garron Hospital shared their stories about working in health care during this pandemic. Grace Duncan is a Registered Nurse and Baby Dela Cruz is a Registered Practical Nurse. They have supported patients and families in a variety of roles throughout the past year and were kind enough to give us some of their time to answer some questions.
Nurses have been front and centre in the care, prevention, and treatment of people facing COVID-19 since the beginning of the pandemic. As a Nurse:
What has been your role in caring for people in the community or hospital setting to address COVID-19?
Grace: "I have worked as a Charge Nurse in the Intensive Care Unit supporting the staff and the families of patients affected by COVID-19; as a Screener and support to patients and visitors attending appointments in the hospital; as a Nurse in the vaccination clinic and currently as a Nurse working in the "Virtual Ward", providing support and monitoring of patients who have tested positive for COVID-19 and are being managed at home".
"After the first wave I saw a real shift in the care of patients particularly with the restrictions on family visits and seeing the number of patients admitted to ICU but not leaving. Not being able to hold a patient's hand really bothered me". In the Virtual Ward where she follows up on patients who are recovering from COVID-19 at home, her care has been holistic, monitoring for changes in signs and symptoms, escalating their care when symptoms worsened, providing education and support through fears of the unknown, developing trust and providing reassurance that they are not facing this alone.
Baby: "I was the very first one who was redeployed to the Covid Assessment Centre in the early days when not much was known about COVID-19. It was scary in the beginning because we did not have a lot of information about the virus".
As a Screener, Baby supported families and visitors accessing hospital appointments. "This was a challenging position where I had to deal with patients, family and visitors who are scared, anxious, and frustrated, making them answer screening questions, making them wash hands, making them wear masks and at times, denying them of entry to the hospital".
Baby also facilitated Zoom calls between patients and families who were not allowed to visit sick relatives in person, and currently moves across various hospital units providing nursing care where she is needed most.
Although your role as a nurse is largely about the care of others, how are you taking care of yourself?
Grace: "This is so important. Seeing the rising numbers of people diagnosed with COVID-19 on a daily basis is so intense, I try to refocus and energize to prepare for the next day. I try my best to not take home a particular situation with a patient. I walk a lot, use meditative moments, play CDs with a spiritual uplifting message, and talk to my family and friends."
Baby: "I work 16 hour shifts. I look after myself by eating comfort food which is not usually healthy food, taking long showers or bubble baths, watching movies, going onto Facebook, playing games. I also renewed my love for reading, connecting to family and friends in a different way".
What do you think are some of the challenges that nurses face in taking care of themselves during this time?
Grace: "The big thing for nurses who are working directly with patients especially in ICU rendering care day after day not knowing what might happen to themselves. Also, the patients being affected are getting younger and younger and sometimes not making it. It's too much. Very hard to deal with".
Baby: "Nurses are too tired, it's almost impossible to get a day off or vacation.
What do you think that nurses need to feel supported by the community/general public?
Grace: "Nurses want to know that the organization supports you, that there is a forum to express yourself and recognition of what we're going through, that we are appreciated."
Baby: "For us nurses, it would be nice if we would be given pandemic pay until it is over, a tax break, most if not all nurses are working overtime, overworked and overtaxed, a tax break would be very much appreciated; and added vacation and sick time.
Is there anything else that you would like to comment on in celebration of nurses?
Grace: "This is a great body of caring people. That's why we do what we do. We care about what happens to people. But we are people too and need to remember to care for each other and to stand together, showing kindness and support and embrace each other a lot (even if virtually)".
Baby: "LONG LIVE NURSES… WE RISK OUR LIVES TO SAVE YOURS".

Garry Moore @PastorGMoore - "Coming Back" (Urban Soul Pop Gospel)
Indie Music Award Winning Artist!
Garry Moore is a singer, songwriter, musician, and producer! He wrote his first song at age 12 and now has a catalog of over 600 songs. Garry began his musical journey at age 9 when his grandmother decided to form a gospel quintet with him, 3 cousins and 1 of his close friends. Garry was the lead vocalist of the young group. They sang in churches all around town and became very popular within the community and abroad. At age 10 he was influenced greatly by the "Beatles" and picked up the guitar. His father played also which inspired him as well. As he grew older he sharpened his guitar skills listening to guitar greats like... "Jimi Hendrix, "Carlos Santana, "Al Mc,kay, "George Benson, and "Hadley Hockensmith.
His gospel music influences were "Andrae Crouch, "Edwin Hawkins, "The Mighty Clouds Of Joy, "Rance Allen and "The Williams Brothers. Secular music influences were "Earth Wind & Fire, "The Commodores, "The Jackson 5, "The Average White Band, and "The Isley Brothers. At age 19 (1979) he formed "Garry Moore & New Joy" they recorded their first (45) single in January 1981 on the H.S.E. record label in Nashville Tennessee. Three years later the group changed their name to the name "Fire Power" and recorded their fist LP album in 1984. The group did concerts and also opened up for artist like the world renowned multi Grammy Award Winning Gospel Groups "The Mighty Clouds Of Joy" and "The Williams Brothers" during the 80's...
In 1991 the group disbanded while recording on their second studio album and the material was never finished or released until 2011 when Garry decided to release 7 of his songs from the 1990 recording sessions which were unfinished, so he titled the EP "Unfinished Business" which is on itunes! After the group "Fire Power" broke up Garry took 5 years away from the music scene. In 1996 he entered the studio for the first time as an solo artist. He released his first solo project in 1997 titled "You're Never Alone" He entered the studio again in 2000 to record "Yahweh" and regionally released the album in 2001 which rendered the #1. radio hit "Come As You Are" several songs from "Yahweh" received heavy rotation on gospel radio stations and many college stations.
Garry took another hiatus from the music scene, but this time even longer. from 2001 to 2009 until a friend influenced him to record again. Which birthed the album "Paradise" in 2009 and was re-released by "Tate Music Group" in 2010. Garry's 4th Cd was released in 2011 titled "A Blessing For You" winning the award for "Best Male Gospel Artist" He released his 5th Cd in 2012 titled "Breakthrough" which won him "Best Gospel Music Producer" of 2013 for the song "God Is So Good" and a nomination certificate award for the "Best Album Of The Year" and a nomination certificate award for having 12 nominations in 11 different categories! In 2014 the 16 track, and 6th solo album titled "HERO" was released and seven songs were nominated in 7 categories winning Garry "Best Male Gospel Artist" of 2014 for the song "I Can't Live Without You" ...

Ford Motor Company Fund sending Cleveland-area war veterans to visit World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C.
For the second year in a row, Ford Motor Company Fund is sponsoring an Honor Flight for 50 World War II veterans in the Cleveland area to visit the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C.
This year is significant as it marks the 70th anniversary of D-Day (June 6, 1944)
Ford Fund will sponsor three Honor Flights this year, adding to the six flights it has sponsored since 2011
For the second year in a row, Ford Motor Company Fund is sponsoring an Honor Flight to transport Cleveland-area veterans to the National World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C. The World War II Honor Flight veterans – all in their eighties and nineties – will be greeted at the national memorial by members of Congress and Ford employees.
Ford Fund is covering the cost of the trip to Washington, D.C. for 50 World War II veterans from Cleveland and other parts of Ohio to experience national memorials dedicated in their honor. The trip was organized by Honor Flight Cleveland (www.honorflightcleveland.com), the northeast Ohio hub of the Honor Flight Network.
All veterans will be accompanied by a volunteer guardian who will be paying for their own trip. Frankie Lannaggi, former U.S. Marine and Process Coach at Ford's Cleveland Engine Plant, is volunteering to be a guardian for Wednesday's flight.
"As a U.S. Marine, I am honored to participate in this great program and give back to the men and women who have given so much to our country and paved the way for the freedoms we have today," said Lannaggi, "I am proud to be part of the Ford family who are recognizing these local veterans for their sacrifice and dedication."
In addition to the WWII Memorial, the veterans and their guardians are also visiting memorials dedicated to veterans of the Korean War, Vietnam War, Iwo Jima and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in the Arlington National Cemetery.
Ford Motor Company's support for veterans started more than 90 years ago when Henry Ford led a cross-country caravan of 50 Ford Model T's to transport disabled veterans to their convention. Since 1974, Ford Motor Company and Ford Motor Company Fund have provided more than $8 million to veteran organizations, including support for the National World War II Memorial. Ford Fund is sponsoring three Honor Flights this year, which will bring the total Ford-sponsored Honor Flights since 2011 to nine.
The Ford Veterans Network Group, one of the company's corporately supported Employee Resource Groups, sponsors activities in support of its veterans, military personnel and their families. Ford employs more than 7,000 U.S. veterans along with hundreds of active military personnel and U.S. reservists and guardsmen.

All-New 2015 F-150 Most Patented Truck in Ford History – New Innovations Bolster Next-Generation Light-Duty Pickup
2015 Ford F-150 has more new Ford technology patents and/or patent applications than any truck in Ford history, offering customers innovative technologies throughout – everything from the tailgate to the front end
All-new F-150 boasts more than 100 new Ford patents and/or patent applications, making this vehicle a benchmark for new technologies in Ford's storied history of truck leadership
A Ford-developed heat treatment method for aluminum alloy nearly doubles the strength of the material, helping achieve better dent and ding resistance while reducing weight
From its tailgate step to the LED spotlights found on the side mirrors, the next-generation 2015 Ford F-150's new features and technologies make it the most patented truck in company history.
"The all-new F-150 is loaded with innovation," said Alana Strager, Ford program analyst charged with tracking new innovations for the 2015 truck. "Ford engineers filed more than 100 new patents for technologies on this truck as they have worked to redefine the light-duty pickup for the next generation."
Patents and patent applications abound for state-of-the-art technologies covering new features and breakthroughs that will benefit customers of the all-new 2015 F-150. The scope of these innovations includes every part of the truck – body, exterior, interior, chassis, design, electrical and engine – as well as its manufacturing processes.
Patenting a smarter truck
Examples of Ford's state-of-the-art technologies on the new 2015 F-150 include segment-exclusive LED spotlights found on the side mirrors, innovative remote tailgate release and smart trailer tow features that make towing easier.
Innovative LED side-mirror spotlights allow customers to illuminate the side of the vehicle for tasks from setting up a campsite to changing a tire
Remote tailgate release automatically lowers the tailgate with the push of a button on the key fob – a first for a pickup truck
Ford's pioneering tailgate step has been completely reengineered so it fully integrates into the tailgate, making it virtually invisible when not in use. The tailgate drops down into position in one easy motion. The grab handle is now housed inside the tailgate, which keeps the inner surface of the tailgate uniformly flat
BoxLink™ cargo management system includes lockable, die-cast aluminum tie-down cleats, and provides a unique interface to the box for improved flexibility and organization, as well as additional locations for tie-downs. Available segment-first cargo ramps can be stowed on the sides of the pickup box via the BoxLink system and mounted quickly on the tailgate to enable easy loading of ATVs, motorcycles or mowers
Other smart features never offered before on a Ford pickup include 360-degree camera view, integrated loading ramps stowed in the pickup bed, 400-watt power outlets inside the cab and LED headlights.
Patenting toughness
Mounted on an exceptionally strong and well-proven high-strength steel frame, the all-new Ford F-150 incorporates the latest high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloys to form the body and cargo box.
The aluminum is heat-treated using a proprietary method developed by Ford engineers that nearly doubles the strength of the metal. Ford is first in the auto industry to use this methodology.
Additionally, Ford engineers have filed patent applications for spot welding methods, adhesives and hydroforming this first-of-its-kind truck.
"Ford is teaching the world how to build a next-generation truck, and the more than 100 patents filed by the F-150 team for technologies on the 2015 truck further proves these Ford engineers and designers lead the automotive industry in innovation," said Strager.

Ford Brings Custom Transit Connect Wagons to Maker Faire 2014; Makers Get a Chance to Meet the Unminivan
Two new custom Ford Transit Connect Wagons, Hackmobile and Happy Mutant Mobile, will be on display at Maker Faire – an all-ages event for the do-it-yourself enthusiast
Ford and MAKE magazine teamed up in the construction of Hackmobile, the ultimate Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourselfer, and Happy Mutant Mobile, which was personalized for the Web-based magazine Boing Boing
All-new Ford Transit Connect Wagon, the #unminivan, is available as a five- or seven-seat vehicle that can be paired with one of two fuel-efficient engines – a 1.6-liter EcoBoost® or a 2.5-liter four-cylinder
Ford and MAKE magazine will show two creative takes on personalizing the all-new Transit Connect Wagon as part of Maker Faire, an all-ages event celebrating the do-it-yourself spirit.
MAKE magazine put on the first Maker Faire in 2006 in the San Francisco Bay Area, bringing together tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, hobbyists, engineers and artists. It has since grown, with several Maker Faire events taking place around the world. Last year, about 195,000 people attended the two flagship Maker Faire events, held in San Francisco and New York. This year, Maker Faire events will take place in more than 60 cities in North America and beyond.
Hackmobile and Happy Mutant Mobile Transit Connect Wagons will make a public appearance on Thursday, May 15, at TechShop in San Francisco before going on display at Maker Faire, Saturday and Sunday, May 17 and May 18, at San Mateo Event Center in San Mateo, Calif. The vehicles will also be on display at Maker Faire in New York later this year.
"Transit Connect Wagon is exactly what customers want it to be," said Minyang Jiang, brand manager for Ford Transit Connect Wagon. "Whether it's used as a people mover or to carry cargo, the spirit of the vehicle is in how it can be transformed by its owners to express their passions. We think these two vehicles are a perfect example of the unminivan, of how to inspire the imagination in a new way."
Hackmobile, a fabricating workshop on four wheels, was the winner of MAKE magazine's Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge, a competition that saw 10 teams vie to create the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast. As part of winning the contest, Ford commissioned California-based builder CGS Motorsports to build Hackmobile.
The winning design team, Twin Cities Maker, is part of a Minnesota-based community nonprofit that operates a shop called Hack Factory, where members build projects and hold classes for the community.
The concept was for a Transit Connect Wagon to be designed and built around a machine the team dubbed "The Fabber" due to its use as a multipurpose tool in fabricating. Hackmobile has shelving and storage for tools to do woodworking, metalworking and 3D fabrication.
Happy Mutant Mobile was developed in collaboration with MAKE magazine and Boing Boing, a Web-based magazine devoted to technology and culture.
Boing Boing's editors designed Happy Mutant Mobile to be as original as its name, serving as an official vehicle for the site.
The custom-designed exterior features a large screen that can roll down to show outdoor movies, a hood ornament that blows bubbles and LED signs mounted to the roof.
The interior is decorated in dark custom woodwork and green leather upholstery. It houses a mix of oddities and knickknacks, a 3D printer, camera equipment, magazine rack and computer equipment.
Theresa Contreras of California-based LGE*CTS Motorsports, which served as builder on the project, said the whimsical design features, like the bubble machine on the hood, make it one of the most unique builds the team has worked on.
"Transit Connect is a great platform for any build of this magnitude, or for the weekend warrior, for that matter," Contreras said. "It's amazing that the minute everyone lays eyes on this vehicle, they start thinking about how they would use it. I've heard everything from office desks to mountain bikes to band equipment. The unminivan can be a vehicle for everyone."
The 2014 Transit Connect Wagon went on sale in North America earlier this year as an affordable alternative to customers looking for something new and functional in a five- or seven-seat people mover. With its dual sliding side doors, fold-flat second- and third-row seating, a maximum payload of 1,270 pounds, more than 100 cubic feet of cargo space, choice of a rear liftgate or side-hinged cargo doors and a starting MSRP of around $25,000, Ford Transit Connect Wagon takes adaptability to a new level.

Oklahoma, Dallas Order 300-Plus CNG-Capable Ford F-150 Pickups As Demand Grows for Alternative Fuel Option
The state of Oklahoma and its agencies to buy 256 Ford F-150 trucks prepped to run on compressed natural gas; Dallas orders 65 for its fleet
2014 F-150 available with gaseous-fuel prep option on 3.7-liter V6 engine; can run on CNG or liquefied petroleum gas (also called propane autogas)
By summer, Ford will offer eight vehicles that can run on clean-burning, affordable CNG; the company is on track to sell more than 15,000 such vehicles in 2014
The state of Oklahoma, its agencies and the city of Dallas have ordered a total of 321 Ford F-150 pickups that can run on compressed natural gas.
Since 2010, Ford CNG-prepped truck sales have increased more than 250 percent, said Jon Coleman, Ford fleet sales manager. Cumulative sales are expected to exceed 50,000 trucks by the end of the year, and Ford expects demand for CNG-prepped vehicles to continue growing as more fleet customers recognize the economic and environmental benefits of this clean-burning fuel.
CNG-powered trucks lower costs and offer emissions benefits, and the alternative fuel is domestically produced, Coleman explained. Operating costs can be as low as one third that of conventional vehicles. Typically, the fuel savings cover the cost of conversion within three years.
"For fleet customers in Oklahoma, Texas and other states, a CNG F-150 really makes sense," Coleman said. "The fuel is more affordable and widely available, and it reduces greenhouse gases and pollutants that cause smog."
The 2014 F-150 is available with a gaseous-fuel prep option for the 3.7-liter V6 that can run on CNG or liquefied petroleum gas. CNG/LPG engine prep from the factory costs $315. The customer then chooses a Ford Qualified Vehicle Modifier to supply fuel tanks, fuel lines and unique fuel injectors. Upfits run approximately $6,000 to $9,500, depending on tank capacity.
For fleet managers, CNG conversions can provide stability against fluctuating fuel prices, lower vehicle operating costs and reduce pollutants. CNG sells for a national average $2.11 per gallon of gasoline equivalent, and is as low as $1 in parts of the country. By comparison, the national average for unleaded regular gas is $3.67 per gallon.
Customers can also accelerate the payback period by taking advantage of a growing number of incentives issued by states such as Oklahoma.
CNG expansion
Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin is leading a coalition of 22 states seeking to use more CNG vehicles in their fleets. CNG is abundant in this country and reduces America's dependence on foreign oil. CNG also lessens the environmental impact of greenhouse gas by 20 percent and reduces smog-producing pollutants up to 90 percent.
Fallin announced the CNG project at her inaugural Governor's Energy Conference in 2011. Since then, she has worked with other Oklahoma officials and governors from other states, met with Ford and other automobile manufacturers, and received bids to add more CNG vehicles to the state's fleets.
"I am excited about Oklahoma's partnership with Ford Motor Company as we work to support energy efficiency, cost savings and the use of clean-burning American-made energy," Fallin said. "Ultimately, converting our state fleets to CNG will save millions in taxpayer dollars."
CNG prices in Oklahoma vary from $1.07 to $2.49 per gallon of gasoline equivalent. The average statewide price for a gallon of regular gas is $3.43. Fuel bills could be reduced as much as 67 percent with CNG vehicles, Coleman said.
Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas have expressed interest in Ford CNG-capable vehicles, Coleman said.
The specially equipped bi-fuel F-150 model purchased by Oklahoma features two storage tanks – the regular factory gasoline reservoir and a supplementary CNG tank. Combined, this gives the light-duty truck a range of up to 750 miles, depending on the size of the tanks. The most common configuration allows fleet operators to go 450 miles on CNG alone and another 300 miles on regular gas.
Most CNG options
By this summer, Ford will offer eight commercial vehicles with a gaseous-prep option, more than any other full-line manufacturer:
2015 Transit Connect van and wagon
2015 Transit van, wagon, cutaway and chassis cab
2014 E-Series van, wagon, cutaway and stripped chassis
2015 F-Series Super Duty pickup
2015 F-Series Super Duty chassis cab
2015 F-650 medium-duty truck
2015 F53 and F59 stripped chassis
2014 F-150 light-duty pickup
CNG/LPG prepped vehicles are part of Ford's commitment to offering a wide range of alternative fuel options to customers to help meet their mileage and driving needs, including EcoBoost, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, battery electric, Flex Fuel and B20 biodiesel.
Westport Debuts California's Only CARB Certified CNG Ford F-150 at ACT
LONG BEACH, CA, May 5, 2014 /CNW/ - Westport Innovations Inc. (TSX:WPT) (NASDAQ:WPRT), engineering the world's most advanced natural gas engines and vehicles, announces that the only California Air Resources Board and EPA certified Ford F-150, featuring the Westport WiNG™ Power System, is being debuted during the Alternative Clean Transportation Expo (ACT) in Long Beach, May 6 to 8.
Dedicated CNG Ford F-150 with the Westport WiNG™ Power System
Unveiling the new model at this year's ACT Expo was a natural decision, says Paul Shaffer, Westport's Vice President and Managing Director of North American Ford business.
"California is one of the most promising states for the adoption of natural gas vehicles, thanks to the wide network of natural gas stations and the attractive incentives available to drivers and fleet owners," says Paul. "California is arguably one of the most significant natural gas vehicle markets in the US. The F-150 is a significant fleet vehicle, as some fleets prefer its smaller size."
While natural gas vehicles have grown in popularity for applications such as shipping and transit - in fact, some of the first Westport technology ever deployed was in California for buses at Berkeley University - few people are aware of their widespread use, economic and environmental benefits, and the growing number of options for passenger vehicles.
California represents an important market for natural gas vehicles, and according to the California Natural Gas Vehicle Coalition, the state's natural gas fueling infrastructure is the most extensive in the United States—with nearly 600 public and private natural gas stations at the beginning of 2012.
With gasoline averaging $3.71 a gallon in the United States (US Energy Administration Information), and compressed natural gas averaging $2.11 per gasoline gallon equivalent (CNGnow), there's a clear price advantage to operating on natural gas, particularly for high-mileage drivers.
And mileage is key with the Westport WiNG powered Ford F-150, offering equivalent fuel economy, fuel capacity and mileage to a traditional gasoline-powered model.
Westport received certification from CARB for its 2014 model year Westport WiNG™ Ford F-150 3.7 L pickup truck with the dedicated compressed natural gas (CNG) system in April. CARB certified vehicles meet all applicable California emission regulations.
The Ford F-150 pickup truck, which is also certified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), runs on CNG and is available with a 17 gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE), 23 GGE tank, or an industry leading 27 GGE. The existing Ford OEM warranty remains intact, and is matched by the Westport warranty for all like components. All Westport operated trucks undergo the same safety testing required for all Ford original equipment manufacturer (OEM) products.
Westport has also received certification in April from the EPA for its 2015 model year Ford F-250 and F-350, 6.2 L super duty trucks with the Westport WiNG™ bi-fuel CNG system. EPA certified vehicles meet the EPA's emission standards.
The Westport WiNG operated Ford F-250 and F-350 trucks run on both gasoline and CNG and are available with a 17 GGE or 23 GGE tank, or a variety of combinations using underbody tanks. The existing Ford warranty remains intact, and is matched by the Westport warranty for all like components. All trucks with the Westport WiNG Power System undergo the same safety testing required for all Ford OEM products.
Westport, as the leading partner that is in Ford's Qualified Vehicle Modifier (QVM) program, provides OEM quality parts and production environment.

All-New 2015 Ford Transit Joins the Cast of History's Hit Series 'American Pickers'
2015 Ford Transit joins the cast of "American Pickers" on the episode airing April 30 at 9 p.m. EDT/PDT on History
The durability and cargo hauling capability of Transit fit the needs of "American Pickers" as the cast crosses the country in search of forgotten relics and antiques
487 cubic feet of cargo volume offers ample space to transport big finds
Ford is celebrating by launching a scavenger hunt across the U.S., giving 10 lucky winners the use of a 2015 Transit for two weeks
Ford Transit is joining History's "American Pickers" as stars Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz travel around the United States, searching remote and rustic locations for classic gems that can be restored and resold.
Wolfe and Fritz will drive a 2015 Transit, a full-size van designed for commercial use, in their mission to find these relics. "The biggest thing is, when the van is full, then we've got to come home. I'm interested in real estate on wheels," Wolfe says during the episode airing April 30. "There were four or five different vehicles I was looking at, and I just keep coming back to the Ford as the better choice."
"American Pickers" will use the largest Transit model – with a long wheelbase, extended body and high roof – featuring the available Ford 3.2-liter Power Stroke five-cylinder diesel engine.
The show is just one example of how Ford Transit serves the needs of small businesses and commercial fleets. To celebrate the debut of Transit on "American Pickers,"
Ford is hosting a scavenger hunt that challenges contestants to find one of 10 scale-model Transit vehicles on display in antique shops across the United States. The 10 winners get the use of a 2015 Transit for two weeks. (No purchase necessary. Promotion ends 7/1/14. Click here for details: social.ford.com/winTransit)
"We are thrilled to expand the great multi-year relationship we have with Ford," said Peter Olsen, executive vice president of national ad sales for History. "We look forward to the Transit being part of Pickers for many years to come."
The 2015 model year Transit – built at Ford's Kansas City Assembly Plant – will be available in three body lengths, two wheelbases and three roof heights; in van, wagon, chassis cab and cutaway body styles; and in XL and XLT trim levels, offering more choices than ever from a Ford commercial van.
The high-roof Transit – with best-in-class 81.5 inches of interior height – provides enough headroom for a person 6 feet 8 inches tall to stand upright in the cargo area. In some configurations, Transit offers as much as 75 percent more cargo volume than the largest E-Series, saving customers the fuel costs and time associated with having to make a second trip.
"Transit has been tested to rigorous Built Ford Tough standards, and comes equipped with great technology features like SYNC® and MyFord Touch®, and Lane-Keeping System with Driver Alert," said Minyang Jiang, Ford brand manager for Transit, Transit Connect and E-Series.
"'American Pickers' fits in with the spirit of the Transit family as vehicles people can rely on to get the job done." The van used on "American Pickers" will feature an available rear-view camera and available Reverse Sensing System.

On April 5, 2019, the First District Court of Appeal of Florida ruled that a work-at-home employee could not collect workers' compensation for an injury sustained during her hours of employment. The case of Sedgwick CMS and The Hartford/Sedgwick CMS v. Valcourt-Williams related to an injury sustained by Tammitha Valcourt-Williams on April 27, 2016. The initial court ruling found for Valcourt-Williams and awarded her workers' compensation for her injury. The First District Court of Appeal reversed this ruling and denied the claim for workers' compensation. For workers who have been injured on the job, working with a Miami workers' compensation lawyer is often the best way to deal with these issues quickly and to achieve the best possible results.
The Lower Court Ruling
Valcourt-Williams was injured when she reached for a coffee cup and tripped over her dog. At that time, she was employed by Sedgwick CMS as a telecommuting claims adjuster for workers' compensation cases. The Judge of Compensation Claims found in favor of Valcourt-Williams on the basis that the work environment inside her house was legally the to that in the employer's brick-and-mortar locations. Because these two environments were considered to be equivalent, the lower court ruled that the injury sustained by Valcourt-Williams was incurred on the job and should be covered by workers' compensation.
A Controversial Decision
The First District Court of Appeal ruled in a split decision that the injury suffered by Valcourt-Williams was not related to her employment duties and thus was ineligible for coverage by workers' compensation. Writing on behalf of the majority, Judge Allen Winsor indicated that the risks that led to the accident were present independent of whether Valcourt-Williams was working or not working at the time and would have been present even if Valcourt-Williams were not employed.
In a dissenting opinion, Judge Ross Bilbrey indicated that this new interpretation of the law was a reversal of "decades of precedent" and that it undermined the rights of workers who were injured while telecommuting to receive fair compensation for these injuries. The majority disagreed, however, stating that other forms of injuries could reasonably be attributed to the working conditions and would be eligible for workers' compensation.

Jaromir Jagr reaches decision on World Cup participation
Watch as Jaromir Jagr and Cal Clutterbuck collide at centre ice, with Jagr getting a piece of Clutterbuck's head on the questionable play.

Jaromir Jagr will not participate in the 2016 World Cup of Hockey.
The Florida Panthers star and the highest-scoring Czech player in 2015-16 told Czech Republic general manager Martin Rucinsky over a telephone call on the weekend that he would not be participating in September's best-on-best tournament, the Associated Press reports.
Jagr, who led all NHL Czechs with 27 goals, is 44 years old.
He asked not to be named to his country's initial 16-man roster but was still undecided about his participation when he re-signed with Florida earlier this month.
Jaromir Jagr will not play in the World Cup. via @DenikSport GM Rucinsky said he would not have time enough to get ready for the tournament
— Zdenek Janda (@zdenek_janda) May 24, 2016
Jagr first announced his retirement from international hockey after Sochi in 2014. He was convinced to make an encore for 2015 and was excellent for a fourth-place Czech squad at the IIHF World Championship last May.
Rucinsky must fill out his last seven roster spots this week as the final World Cup lineup announcements arrive Friday.
Jagr led the Panthers with 66 points in 79 games in the regular season, adding two assists in the playoffs.
Rucinsky told Tuesday's edition of the Sport Daily he respects Jagr's decision.
All games for the 2016 World Cup will be played at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto.

UK records 32,000 new Covid-19 cases in the second wave
Jul 7, 2021 corona virus, Covid -19, Covid-19 cases, New infections, UK
More than 32,000 new coronavirus cases were recorded across the UK on Wednesday, the highest level since mid-January.
A total of 32,548 people tested positive across the UK according to official data released on Wednesday, this being the highest number recorded since 23 January and nearly halfway to the peak of the second wave.
The data indicates a continued sharp rise in infections, with cases now double the 16,135 cases recorded a fortnight ago, and up by 472 per cent from this time last month.
Health Secretary Sajid Javid admitted earlier this week that the country could see 50,000 cases a day before 19 July, when Covid restrictions in England are set to ease, and a peak of 100,000 daily infections within week.
He admitted: "I have to level with you, I think beyond 19 July, as these easings come in, we should expect to see the case numbers far higher than 50,000."
The Government is reportedly banking on case numbers reaching a peak in August due to levels of "hybrid immunity" achieved by both vaccinations and Covid infections.
However, the controversial strategy has led to accusations that vulnerable people are being left at risk, as well as warnings that the NHS may be left dealing with thousands of long Covid patients in the months and years to come.
On Wednesday, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer challenged Boris Johnson to detail how many deaths, hospitalisations and cases of long Covid would emerge following the easing of restrictions.
Speaking at Prime Minister's Questions, he said: "We all want our economy to open and to get back to normal. The question is whether we do it in a controlled way or a chaotic way."
Highlighting the projections from Mr Javid, Sir Keir asked: "If infections reach that level – 100,000 per day – what does the Prime Minister expect the number of hospitalisations, deaths and the number of people with long Covid will be in that eventuality?"
Mr Johnson replied: "There are a number of projections and they're available from the Spi-M graphs, but what's certainly true is that we're seeing a wave of cases because of the Delta variant.
"But scientists are also absolutely clear that we have severed the link between infection and serious disease and death. Currently there are only a 30th of the deaths that we were seeing at an equivalent position in previous waves of this pandemic."
