Even a highly efficient combustion engine converts only about one-third of the energy in the fuel into traction actually propelling the car. The remaining two-thirds are lost as waste heat going into the environment through the car’s exhaust emissions and through the radiator.

Duratec I-4 unit while contributing to projected fuel economy gains of more than 10%. liter unit in Europe and a choice of advanced and improved Duratorq TDCi common-rail diesel engines—all of which offer reductions in fuel consumption of between 10 and 20% compared to the outgoing models.

The oil price shocks of the 1970s led the Brazilian government to address the strain high prices were placing on its fragile economy. Brazil, the largest and most populous country in South America, was importing 80% of its oil and 40% of its foreign exchange was used to pay for that imported oil.

Furthermore, the study shows the potential for a 30% improvement in fuel economy over the equivalent performance Cummins ATLAS Tier 2 Bin 2 engine ( earlier post ) as well as a significant improvement in NO x and PM (42-74%, depending upon drive cycle and pollutant). Background. Air system. For the study, Achates Power modeled a 2.25-liter,

At idle and low loads, rebreathing of hot exhaust gases provided stable compression ignition with very low engine-out NO x and PM emissions. Rebreathing enabled reduced boost pressure, while greatly increasing exhaust temperature. Hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide emissions after the oxidation catalyst were very low. Earlier post.).

For example, fuel economy statistics and a graphic display of the electric range is shown on the navigation map. These components have a high-voltage electric drive and are powered by the fuel cell. Because the exhaust system transports only water, it can be made of lightweight polymer.
