A higher compression ratio can be used if an engine will operate primarily at light loads, such that degraded efficiency at high loads is more than offset by improved efficiency at light loads. The compression ratio selected for a particular engine depends, the authors note, on the expected duty cycle and fuel octane.

Additionally, suggested one of the speakers, advanced SIDI (spark-ignited, direct-injection) engines can take light-duty market share back from diesels in Europe based on the same trends. First of all, future passenger vehicles have to stay as clean as the best vehicles out there today. SULEV/Tier 2 Bin 2 is the target.

The presence of low-speed pre-ignition is considered a major impediment to automobile manufacturers’ efforts to aggressively downsize engines to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. This four-year program expands on earlier efforts to improve gasoline engine technology for future emissions and fuel economy requirements.
