In a paper presented at the 2013 SAE World Congress, a team from the University of Wisconsin reported a gross indicated thermal efficiency of Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition (RCCI) operation of near 60%, given optimized combustion management and thermodynamic conditions. The 60% study. Splitter, D., Wissink, M.,

The Midwestern Governor’s Association represents Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. However, suppliers will be required to report on the lifecycle GHG emissions of the fuel (gasoline, diesel, and gas-oil) they supply and reduce these emissions from 2011 onward.

The University of Wisconsin-Madison and ExxonMobil announced a two-year renewal of an agreement to research the fundamental chemistry of converting biomass into transportation fuels. This technology could potentially allow larger diesel and jet fuel molecules to be produced from renewable sources. —Professor Huber.

Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. He was formerly with the University of Wisconsin and Rockwell International, and holds a Ph.D. It is much more than that. Table of Contents. Engineering Advantages of PHEV.
