i-ELOOP is best solution for fuel efficiency. In performance, the i-ELOOP work with i-Stop feature. In traffic conditions stop-n-go, i-ELOOP able to supply almost all the needs of electric vehicles. Therefore, the engine power can be freed from the burden of the alternator so it is more fuel efficient.
"I-ELOOP Capacitor is a unique solution to the challenge of how to get energy without the need to overload the machine," said Mazda UK managing director Jeremy Thomson.
"One of the benefits of energy recovering system is the possibility of ancillary systems such as air conditioning to run without worrying about losses that impact on fuel consumption," he added.
MAZDA brake energy regeneration system gave her the name i-ELOOP (Intelligent Energy Loop). This system serves to save engine power when braking and when the vehicle is rolling to boost momentum.
Different from brake regeneration system owned Mazda is the use of capacitors to capture the kinetic energy in the form of electricity. Stored electricity is then used for example to recharge batteries in hybrid cars, or to run the vehicle electrical network.
Thus, it is no longer necessary engine power for charging the battery so as to save fuel consumption.
Mazda has developed an electric double layer capacitor / electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC), which can be fully charged in just a few seconds. A variable voltage power alternator 12V-25V are efficiently used to generate electricity and charge the EDLC.
With a converter from DC to DC voltage, then the voltage is lowered and stabilized to run the vehicle electrical components such as climate-control air-conditioning and audio system in which excess power will go to the starter battery.
