Don't hold your breath. I was working on hydrogen fuel cell powered cars
twenty five years ago. The internal combustion engine is still a
very fast moving target.

Sorry Paul. I was unable to open that pdf file using my regular
pdf viewer.

I obviously thought it was about fuel cells.

I finally got the file open with xpdf. I'll believe it when I see it:)
Sure sounds great.

My red flag runs up when I see a Power Point presentation.
Lots of unanswered questions. Minimal information.
What is the max operating temp?
What is the heat transfer coef. between the copper or aluminum
water tubes and the carbon foam?
How are the metal tubes bonded to the carbon foam?
Aluminum tubes are aluminum brazed to aluminum fins. 
If carbon tubes are used what is the cost of making them?
How do you attach carbon tubes to carbon foam?

etc., etc., etc..
