The VEMB system uses a concentric camshaft, blow-down manifold and scavenge manifold to separate the exhaust event into two phases: high-energy blow-down to the turbo without pumping losses, and high-hydrocarbon scavenge to the EGR system. Source: Borgwarner. Click to enlarge. —Christopher Thomas.

liter model but with significantly reduced real-world and drive cycle CO 2 emissions, and comparable improvements in fuel-economy. In implementing this 50% downsizing by swept volume, the research team delivered zero degradation in driveability, performance or acceleration. Earlier post.). three-cylinder EcoBoost engine.

Researchers at KAUST’s Clean Combustion Research Center have developed a method to predict and to avoid undesirable combustion events in advanced engines, such as knocking and super-knock. In their latest work, the team has extended the theoretical formula to consider temperature and concentration fluctuations of the fuel/air mixture.

Ford says the engine can deliver up to 15% better fuel economy than comparable six-cylinder engines. Featuring a twin-scroll turbocharger and a three-port integrated exhaust manifold (IEM), the 2.3-liter Class-exclusive Active Grille Shutters are designed to help improve MKC fuel efficiency at highway speeds.

The final results will be presented at the UK’s LCV2016 event on 14-15 September. In addition, the integration of hybrid and emissions control systems has the potential to deliver up to a 10-12% reduction in fuel consumption, equivalent to sub-80g/km of CO 2 emissions (NEDC).
