Developed for the latest 1-liter downsized gasoline engines. Continental will be supplying Ford with turbochargers for the carmaker’s new three-cylinder direct injection gasoline engine platform. In order to prevent pressure from rising too steeply at high engine output, a waste-gate valve conducts the exhaust gases past the turbine.

The new engine comes with an electronically-controlled waste-gate to optimize flow and improve low-end torque and throttle response. To keep the engine unit as small as possible, the exhaust manifold is integrated within the cylinder head and can therefore be cooled efficiently using the cylinder head water cooling system.

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% The OBS system uses waste exhaust energy to effect the fuel separation and provides a simple and reliable means for managing the separated fuels.

The Dearman liquid air engine is an innovative heat engine that uses liquid air (or liquid nitrogen) as a “fuel” and emits cold air as exhaust. Ambient or low grade waste heat is used as an energy source with the cryogen providing both the working fluid and heat sink. Earlier post.)

Focused on meeting a growing customer demand for ‘downsized’ engines offering strong power with reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, the new gasoline and diesel powertrains are being progressively introduced across the Opel product range. The engine retains the proven concept of a turbine-integrated exhaust manifold.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. The potential is enormous because the current grid has sufficient energy capacity to supply every vehicle in the United States if every one of them was a PHEV. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish.
