The current decline is ales of diesel light duty vehicle in Europe does not put EU CO 2 targets out of reach of automakers, according to a new analysis by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT). Hybrid electric vehicles can provide efficiency gains over diesel power trains at lower CO 2 abatement costs.

The need to reduce CO 2 emissions is leading to downsized engines, heavily boosted by turbo- or supercharging. Gasoline engines are typically less expensive than diesels for the same application but have higher exhaust temperatures, making advanced turbocharging more difficult. million today to 12 million by 2016.

Schematic of downsized and supercharged four-stroke hybrid pneumatic spark injection engine. The reduction in fuel consumption is obtained mainly through enabling the effective use of a heavily downsized engine, rather than from regenerative efficiency. The engine has two intake and two exhaust valves per cylinder. Dönitz et al.

DENSO Corporation has improved the temperature detection accuracy of its newly developed diesel exhaust temperature sensor. To improve the sensor’s temperature accuracy, DENSO increased the probe length to almost twice that of the conventional product and extended the sensing tip into the exhaust pipe.
