A study by engineers from Mahle Powertrain Ltd and BP found strong synergy between spark ignition (SI) engine downsizing and fuel containing low-to-moderate amounts of alcohol, including ethanol and butanol. The team presented a paper on their work at the recent SAE 2009 World Congress in Detroit. SAE 2009-01-0138).

A member of the ETH research team, which is led by Lino Guzzella, Professor of Thermotronics, will present a paper on their work at the upcoming SAE World Congress 2009 in Detroit in April—one of a number to be presented on the topic there. The compressed air supply also allows extreme downsizing. SAE 2009-01-1304 , not yet published).

downsized, turbocharged) gasoline engine, as operating an engine with higher compression ratios at low load can increase fuel economy compared to operating an engine with fixed compression ratio. In comparison, naturally aspirated engines have a higher compression ratio in the order of 1 to 1.5 Click to enlarge. Tiemann, C.,

Overall volume of the fuel cell system was downsized by 20% compared to the previous system via modularization of bulky parts in the fuel cell system including fuel cell stack, balance of plant (BOP), inverter and high voltage junction box. Comparison of new Tucson ix FCEV (3rd generation) and Tucson FCEV (2nd generation).

Other dimensions of the Mark VIII were larger in all directions, a stark contrast to the extreme downsizing implemented on Mark VI, a measure pushed further by the tidy proportions of the Mark VII.& Worth a quick comparison, the equivalent Thunderbird weighed 3,536 pounds with a V6 engine or 3,725 with the V8.

The resulting higher BMEP levels allow downsizing of the engine at equivalent vehicle performance. Furthermore, by enabling higher CR, downsizing and downspeeding, E85 DI + gasoline PFI makes the engine more efficient in itsusee of gasoline. Earlier post.) PFI engine in a Ford F-150 pickup truck.

Based on test work already carried out, Ricardo estimates that a fuel economy improvement of up to 30% is possible with no loss of power or performance, using a downsized EBDI engine in place of currently available gasoline powertrain technology. Comparison of different ethanol blend levels in EBDI engine. fuel economy improvement.
