Traction is provided by four 145 kW (195 bhp), 400 N·m (295 lb-ft) traction motors at each wheel for total drive power of 580 kW/780 bhp.
A consortium of Clean Air Power and Freightliner has secured almost £0.4 Maximum speed is 75 mph. The key project partners are Freightliner, which operates more than 113 Class 66s in the UK, and Clean Air Power, providers of dual-fuel solutions for freight. million (US$0.55
One tip is that drivers should obey the speed limit since the fuel economy of most vehicles decreases above 50 mph [80 km/h]. ORNL staff members John Thomas, Shean Huff and Brian West have worked to quantify this trend through analysis of dynamometer testing results for 74 vehicles at steady-state speeds from 50 to 80 mph [80 to 129 km/h].
The electric biturbo system comprises a classic exhaust turbocharger (mono- or bi-turbo) working together with a supplemental, electric-powered compressor arranged in series and powered by a separate 48-volt electrical system. Note the position of the single exhaust gas turbocharger and the electrically driven compressor.
Its turbocharger with variable turbine geometry makes optimal use of the exhaust gas energy for early and harmonious torque development. Power is transferred to the front wheels via the standard seven-speed S tronic. The A3 Sportback 30 g-tron 1.5 TFSI engine produces 96 kW (131 PS) and generates 200 N·m (147.5
The resulting optimized weight distribution, the best possible utilization of torque and the very immediate power output promise driving dynamics at the highest level. The power of the electric motor is applied immediately with full torque, a characteristic of the design. Added to this are fast energy absorption and high power density.
Peak power is generated 200 revs higher in the engine range, at 5300 rpm, and torque remains unchanged at 207 lb-ft (280 N·m). seconds to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph, 0.2 The new engine produces 210 horsepower (157 kW), an increase of 10 hp over the previous Gen 2 TSI engine. Thus equipped, the Beetle Turbo coupe takes 6.6
Toyota envisions that a pair of such units (20 kW) would enable B/C-segment electric drive vehicles to cruise at 120 km/h (75 mph). Burned gas is scavenged out through exhaust valves mounted in the cylinder head of the combustion chamber; fresh air is brought in through the scavenging port at the side wall of the cylinder liner.
Exhaust cooling starts with the computer-optimized exhaust valve shape and is further enhanced by the integrated exhaust manifold and cylinder head design that uses the same water jacket to lower exhaust gas temperature entering the turbochargers to further improve reliability and performance.
The BMW M550d xDrive Sedan, the most fuel-efficient of the new series, accelerates from 0 – 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.7 seconds and has a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). The vehicle meets Euro 6 exhaust standards. Playing a central role in this increase in power is M Performance TwinPower Turbo technology.
The locomotives will also deploy an exhaust aftertreatment system purpose-designed for locomotive installations, using Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology. Without exhaust aftertreatment, the QSK95 engine meets Tier 3 locomotive emissions. Click to enlarge. Cummins diesel QSK95 engines will be made in Seymour, Indiana.
A study by two researchers at Sandia National Laboratories has concluded that building and operating a high-speed passenger ferry solely powered by hydrogen fuel cells within the context of the San Francisco Bay is technically feasible, with full regulatory acceptance as well as the requisite associated hydrogen fueling infrastructure.
On the other hand, it is well known that in an internal combustion engine up to 35% of the energy developed by the fuel combustion is dissipated in the exhaust gases. Exhaust gas exergy map of EcoCAR engine. They determined that the average rate of energy lost to the exhaust when on the NEDC is about 3.9 Power from ORC.
It is rated at 259 hp (193 kW), making it one of the most power-dense automotive engines in the industry, GM notes. A twin-scroll turbocharger generates up to 20 pounds of boost, helping the engine optimize power delivery across the rpm band. The Malibu turbo can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 6.3 l/100 km) and 30 mpg (7.9
The SQ5 TDI was first introduced in the fall of 2012 as the first Audi S model powered by a diesel engine. TDI develops its power earlier and more forcefully than before. TDI develops its power earlier and more forcefully than before. This offers the advantage since exhaust gas cleaning responds more quickly. l/100km (33.6
The racing driver Sabine Schmitz has tested the battery-electric Furtive eGT sports car from Exagon Motors ( earlier post ) on the Nordschleife (north loop) of the Nürburgring, achieving a top speed of nearly 240 km/h (149 mph) on the 20 kilometer long Nordschleife. The eGT is equipped with two, for a combined output of 296 kW (402 hp).
seconds on its way to a 193 mph top end. Optional carbon ceramic brakes permit the selection of a Dynamic stability control setting in Sport mode, relaxing the stability control threshold of intervention to permit drift angles or power-on oversteer. Yee to the haw. The included all-wheel steering wont hurt matters, either.
The BMW 740Ld xDrive will accelerate from 0-60 mph in 6.1 US EPA fuel economy estimates are not yet available, however, other models equipped with this engine have seen a 25 – 30% improvement in fuel efficiency over their direct gasoline-powered counterparts. It is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The aluminum-alloy cross-flow cylinder head has a novel placement of intake and exhaust valves; the intake and exhaust ports for each cylinder are positioned one behind the other in the direction of flow. In other words, there is not a separate intake or exhaust camshaft. Top: Valve layout. We can now adjust about 50 ?
Powered by a newly designed 296-horsepower (221 kW) TSI engine which is 30 hp stronger than the engine in the previous model, the new Golf R is up to 18% more fuel efficient than its predecessor when equipped with the optional DSG transmission.
