CPT launching water-cooled electric supercharger for commercial diesel engines

Green Car Congress

SEPTEMBER 12, 2012

At the 17 th Supercharging conference this week in Dresden, Controlled Power Technologies (CPT) will launch what it says is the first water-cooled electric supercharger developed for “quasi-continuous” boosting of commercial diesel engines, including those developed for off highway applications.

Within the SpeedStart design water-cooled power and control electronics are housed within the rear of the machine to reduce cost, improve control response times and minimise losses in the power electronics. The exhaust gas can reach temperatures greater than 900 °C, whereas the turbine upper functional limit is 850 °C.

For the first time, AMG is also utilizing the advantages of gasoline direct injection with spray-guided combustion and piezo-electric injectors: thanks to its higher thermodynamic efficiency, this technology makes more efficient use of fuel and leads to lower exhaust emissions.

The Freightliner SuperTruck uses a downsized and downsped 10.7-liter liter engine, a hybrid system, a Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) system, along with a number of other upgrades. Friction-reducing measures include a variable speed water pump, a clutched air compressor, low-viscosity oil and an improved cylinder kit. Powertrain.

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.

Viable exhaust-driven on-board ethanol reforming for improvements in fuel economy and emissions

Green Car Congress

AUGUST 20, 2013

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. Many papers have described high-temperature steam reforming of ethanol at around 600 °C but.this temperature is too high to be driven by engine exhaust.

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.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. Furthermore, even the older version PHEV can recharge at a slow rate using local solar, wind, water-derived or other net zero CO 2 fuel.
