The Rotrak solution overcomes this constraint by connecting the supercharger to the engine by a compact variable drive, allowing efficient operation across the whole engine speed range. The need to reduce CO 2 emissions is leading to downsized engines, heavily boosted by turbo- or supercharging. million today to 12 million by 2016.

In part-load operation, the indirect injection supplements direct gasoline injection to improve fuel economy and to reduce the output of particulates from the engine. GDI technology provides fuel efficiency benefits from charge air cooling, more facile turbocharging, and the downsizing that these permit. Earlier post.). Earlier post.)
