Conference Downsizing Fuel Economy Range 
Green Car Congress
APRIL 22, 2013
Use of a variable compression ratio (VCR) could be one technology approach to reducing fuel consumption in highly boosted (e.g., 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.

By controlling the current flow through the stator control windings the rotational speed of the PM control rotor is varied and hence the gear ratio can be controlled over a broad range about the intrinsic ratio. The gear ratio can range from 1:1 to 1:15, Kirby said. The gear ratio can range from 1:1 to 1:15, Kirby said.

With this move, Valeo becomes the first automotive supplier to offer its customers a range of electric superchargers. Highly efficient at low engine revolutions, electric superchargers make it possible to downsize engines. version of the vehicle but with fuel economy and CO 2 emissions approaching those of a Prius.

Ford engineers also presented two other papers evaluating the effects of low to mid-level ethanol blends in spark-ignited engines at the conference. As a result, as the ethanol content of the fuel is increased, the fuel economy and driving range for a given fuel tank size are reduced. —Stein et al.
