• A 12 volt automotive blower that increases engine efficiency and power.

'I asked Terry Day of New Fluid Technology to design and build a 12 volt electric automotive blower for boosting performance and efficiency of engines up to 1.8 litres (and target larger engines later). Engine Dynamometer testing and installation in a Honda Prelude, among other vehicles, shows a significantly improved performance and I now believe these blowers should be installed in all cars.'

• A novel water pump that outperforms conventional “Jetpumps” for all rural and domestic applications.

The novel HWI pump	New Fluid impeller technology

The following statement by Steve Wiggins, Hot Water Innovations Limited. January 2008.

'Hot Water Innovations [HWIL] is the developer of a new highly energy efficient water heating, storage and control system. The system is modular in design, made almost entirely from polymers and is primarily for domestic applications.

HWIL had unique requirements for a pump that could operate across a range of performance levels (i.e. one pump does the job of several model sizes), be manufactured at low cost and be simple for trades people to work with at point of installation and for servicing.

New Fluid Technology’s Terry Day, funded by Technology NZ, part of New Zealand’s Foundation for Research, Science and Technology successfully developed a solution that delivers different pressure and flow rate combinations with only small modifications to the whole pump not impacting on manufacturing issues, is low cost and does not require different motor sizes. A key part of the success has been in utilizing New Fluids patented impeller technology, also invented by Terry Day, which has also contributed to an overall reduction in operating noise level for the pump.

The solution has allowed HWIL to maintain an overall low cost position for their hot water system yet remain highly competitive with water delivery performance.'

One of HWIL’s shareholders is Mighty River Power, http://www.mightyriverpower.co.nz a State Owned Enterprise and one of New Zealand’s major energy generators and retailers

A NZ patent has been granted for the HWIL Pump and international patent filing is well progressed.

HWIL is looking to market the pump primarily for domestic applications and is seeking additional partners to access the broader international market opportunities. Steve Wiggins, Hot Water Innovations Limited. hwil@paradise.net.nz

• Worlds quietest Pool and Spa pump: 56dBA.

The New Fluid team prototyped an increased efficiency pump, able to fit existing plumbing, which reduces Sound Power Levels (SPL) from 67-68 dBA for conventional pool pumps to 59 dBA from the New Fluid pump. Replacing the electric motor cooling fan with a Jetfan further reduced SPL to 56dBA. SPL approximately halves or doubles each 3 dBA. The mechanical efficiency is increased by 12.5 %. That translates to a 10 % + electricity saving.

• An electric automotive engine cooling pump which reduces fuel consumption.

An innovative Australian company manufactures and markets electric automotive cooling fans and electric water pumps. The pump body of their larger version, sold worldwide, was designed and prototyped by Terry Day as consultant. The pump reduces fuel consumption by running only when engine cooling is needed and extends engine life by running a short while after engine shutdown.
