The upside of gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines is widely seen as being improved fuel economy coupled with an increase in specific power (especially with turbocharging), enabling significant downsizing. The cO 2 emission factor was calculated assuming a fuel carbon content of 8887 g/gallon. mpg (10.99

Dearman begins on-vehicle testing of Gen 2 transport refrigeration system powered by liquid air engine; lighter, more efficient

NOVEMBER 28, 2015

The Dearman liquid air engine is an innovative heat engine that uses liquid air (or liquid nitrogen) as a “fuel” and emits cold air as exhaust. After each expansion cycle the heat exchange fluid is recovered from the exhaust and reheated to ambient temperature via a heat exchanger similar to a conventional radiator. Earlier post.)

Heat required to bring the fuel to SC states is recovered from the exhaust gas of the engine. To attenuate that risk, the researchers use a diluent such as CO 2 , H 2 O or exhaust gas. George Anitescu from Syracuse presented the work in a poster at the DEER 2009 conference in Dearbon, Michigan. At SC conditions, however (T?450

DECEMBER 11, 2012

To achieve these results, PureTech development called for a number of changes, chief among which were: Downsizing. The exhaust manifold is integrated directly in the cylinder head, which reduces the number of parts and overall weight. The specifications also stipulated a specific power of 50 kW per liter. Three cylinders.

Renault’s ongoing downsizing strategy is aimed at reducing the cubic capacity of its engines in order to bring down fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions, without detracting from performance. The downsizing process involved shortening the piston stroke by reducing the size of the crank pin and conrod assembly. Select Engines.

This means that in addition the power demand is more difficult to achieve with engine downsizing and transmission down-speeding alone. The EU goal is to introduce the WLTP by 2017 if possible and no later than 2020 to coincide with the 95 g/km requirement. The WLTP is significantly more dynamic with faster acceleration rates.
