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.

By combining High Efficiency Clean Combustion (HECC) and Waste Heat Recovery (WHR), each demonstrating greater than 10% improvement in BTE, together with other technologies, it should be possible to improve BTE by 20% to achieve the original DOE target of 50% peak BTE. Finding 3-1. Two of the project teams (Cummins, Inc. Navistar, Inc.

That’s right my friends, while others are cutting back, downsizing, slowing down and pulling back, your Creative Greenius is not only Ready to Go, I’m already going, baby, and I’m moving at Obama speed. It’s the environment – the sun, the air, the water, the land. Geoff Dolan, City Manager of Manhattan Beach.

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.

Unlike high-temperature reforming, supplementary water is not required. Because exhaust-driven reforming uses only waste engine heat, it avoids this efficiency hit, the authors note. High-temperature reformers need to burn a portion of the fuel to maintain their reforming temperatures, thereby generating a fuel-economy penalty.

Hyundai Motor’s new downsized 1.0 According to the survey, auto makers are focused on rightsizing, as opposed to just downsizing engines, to optimize vehicle performance and fuel economy as global regulations continue to drive more fuel efficiency.

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. It is wasteful and destructive to be burning this versatile molecule; we must stop. For an extended discussion see Appendix C).

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. For durability, it is water-cooled. VGT and waste-gate. Variable swirl actuation.
