Further, there is increasing interest among stakeholders in exploring the benefits of higher octane fuels that would lead to higher compression ratios which would lead to more efficient engines and reduced fuel consumption. One significant trend is engine downsizing coupled with turbocharging. Source: U.S. Click to enlarge.

These tests resulted in the combined 115% freight efficiency improvement over a 2009 baseline truck. Testing was also conducted at the DTNA Detroit engineering facility to demonstrate engine efficiency by achieving 50.2% engine brake thermal efficiency. The Freightliner SuperTruck uses a downsized and downsped 10.7-liter

million to a project to develop a high-efficiency engine system that integrates a compact micro-hybrid configuration of a supercharger with an electric waste heat recovery system and employs high rates of recirculated exhaust gases. Modern engines are becoming smaller and smaller with high levels of dilution for efficiency.

DENSO Corporation has improved the temperature detection accuracy of its newly developed diesel exhaust temperature sensor. To improve the sensor’s temperature accuracy, DENSO increased the probe length to almost twice that of the conventional product and extended the sensing tip into the exhaust pipe. Click to enlarge.
