The i-flow is a test bed for new energy harvesting ideas, ranging from flexible solar panel roofing to a thermo-electric generator. Another technique introduced in collaboration with BASF is thermoelectric waste heat recovery. The new, downsized 1.0-liter liter Kappa gasoline and 1.7-liter The new, downsized 1.0-liter

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.

The report looks at four key themes: Innovation and technology: By 2040 almost none of Europe’s new cars will be powered solely by a traditional gasoline or diesel engine. Downsizing and downspeeding including more sophisticated charge air/boost systems. Waste heat recovery to shaft power or electricity production.

ExxonMobil, Corning and Toyota have collaborated to develop an Onboard Separation System (OBS) to optimize gasoline engine efficiency and performance. In a paper on the OBS presented at the SAE 2014 World Congress, the researchers suggested that potential applications include downsizing to increase fuel economy by ?10% Background.

Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. It solves the storage problems faced by the electric utility companies in absorbing and adapting to the highly variable power and energy generated by solar and wind.

HEV - The current generation of production Hybrids are 100% gas fueled vehicles with a few EV tricks like Regen Braking and no wasteful Idling. What changes do we make to convert a gasoline-only hybrid to a Plug-In Hybrid? See SEVA:Electric vehicle. PHEV - These vehicles combine the advantages of both HEV and EV vehicles.
