Furthermore, they found that the limited working time at the high temperature presents an opportunity to use graphite of low surface areas, thereby prospectively prolonging the EV lifespan to greater than two million miles. The very fast charge allows us to downsize the battery without incurring range anxiety.

The company presented these latest test results in a paper at the SAE 2012 World Congress in Detroit. With the extended lean operation of the sleeve-valve engine, NO x emissions remain low for light to medium loads and rise back to typical levels during the brief enrichment periods required to maintain competitive BMEP levels at higher loads.

Among their general findings are: Increasing battery power in plug-in hybrids (10-, 20- and 40-mile AER, from low to high power) had little effect on fuel consumption results because the battery power can provide most of the driving on the test cycles, so the fuel economy only differs slightly.

Both Multec types of injectors feature best-in-class NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness), which is important because it saves the vehicle manufacturer the cost and weight of additional noise reduction materials. However, these engines can present significant challenges for the ignition system.

Steven Kaye: ONE’s anode-free cell advantages include high energy density (thin lithium metal anode), low cost (no anode present during cell assembly, low-cost liquid electrolyte), and abundant raw materials (mostly manganese, zero cobalt). The challenge is that anode-free cells still have low cycle life.

At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. The car can refuel during periods of low demand on the grid, and if equipped with a bi-directional charger, can actually replenish the grid with excess energy gleaned from a renewable resource. Engineering Advantages of the PHEV.

The new engine will achieve high efficiency using the Atkinson Cycle with an 18:1 compression ratio, combined with aggressive engine downsizing. Engine downsizing is a key tool in improving fuel economy. When loads on the engine are low the compression ratio can be raised to as much as 18:1, Envera said.
