In its new report on downsized and boosted gasoline engine technologies ( earlier post ) the ICCT highlighted Ricardo’s work on an “extreme” Miller cycle concept with high (13:1) compression ratio (CR) and central direct injection in a downsized boosted engine. A long exhaust stroke then extracts maximum efficiency. Resources.

This corresponds to a 23% reduction in fuel consumption and, therefore, CO 2 output.). Even after 120 years of non-stop development, the internal combustion engine still fails to utilize even close to the majority of the energy contained in the fuel. SKYACTIV at Powertrains, Fuels & Lubes. air-to-fuel ratio.

The higher-voltage variant will support moves by European vehicle manufacturers announced earlier this year to introduce 48 volt passenger vehicle power networks to help meet the requirement for lower fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions. TDI models, but even lower CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption than the current production 1.4l

The combination of electronics, advanced battery technology and charging techniques ensures the system can deliver the required rapid charge and discharge performance, while at all times maintaining a stable 12 volts to the vehicle’s main electrical system. Hence the industry trend to dual-charging systems, CPT notes.

liter units which are part of a new generation of engines from the Kappa family—meet growing demand for small capacity, turbocharged engines to reduce fuel consumption and CO 2 emission without compromising performance. The relocated and re-engineered turbo means throttle response time and low-end torque have improved.
