At the US Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Annual Merit Review meeting in Washington, DC last week, Michael Ruth from Cummins noted that the DOE program target for the project is a fuel economy (CAFE) target of 26 mpg (9.05 Cost of the new engine relative to gasoline baseline.

The VEMB system uses a concentric camshaft, blow-down manifold and scavenge manifold to separate the exhaust event into two phases: high-energy blow-down to the turbo without pumping losses, and high-hydrocarbon scavenge to the EGR system. to 2 ratio points and maintain the same knock limit for an additional 3-4% improvement in fuel economy.

This has resulted in higher catalyst loading per volume of substrate and led to downsizing of systems from those available in 2010. While the cost of new heavy-duty trucks has increased at approximately 1% per year, the cost of emission controls has come down, representing a lower percentage of the cost of a new truck.

Reductions in fuel consumption and CO 2 from base 2.0-liter liter ELC-Hybrid to downsized 1.4L VTES + SpeedStart. In combination with the VTES electric supercharger, this will create a cost effective micro/mild hybrid system which, when applied to a downsized 1.4-liter Click to enlarge.

A team at Monsanto and colleagues at AVL Powertrain have successfully designed and demonstrated an onboard low-temperature ethanol reformer that can be driven by exhaust heat. A paper on their work is published in the ACS journal Energy & Fuels. Click to enlarge. Unlike high-temperature reforming, supplementary water is not required.

The engine should yield fuel efficiency gains of more than 50% compared to a downsized, turbo-charged gasoline direct injection engine, while reducing the overall cost of the powertrain system, said Fabien Redon, Vice President, Technology Development at Achates Power.
