A team from Universita degli Studi di Pisa (Italy) and Rolf Reitz at the University of Wisconsin-Madison are proposing a novel combustion concept—Homogenous Charge Progressive Combustion (HCPC)—based on a split-cycle principle to control HCCI combustion in diesel-fueled engines. SAE 2010-01-2107. —Musu et al.,

HCCI combustion can deliver a very efficient engine, potentially providing a 20% to 30% boost in gasoline engine efficiency without the NO x or PM emissions of a diesel. This is the key to setting a new standard of fuel efficiency and emissions reductions. Elements of the Grail Engine. Matthew Riley.

When we launched our HDV efficiency program we stated a belief that HDV carbon dioxide emissions could be reduced by up to one-third. This project builds upon the HDV Efficiency Focus Area feasibility study completed in 2010. This project builds upon the HDV Efficiency Focus Area feasibility study completed in 2010.
