In implementing this 50% downsizing by swept volume, the research team delivered zero degradation in driveability, performance or acceleration. Click to enlarge. Earlier post.). The HyBoost concept is based on a 2009 Ford Focus in which a 2.0L naturally aspirated four-cylinder gasoline engine has been replaced with a 1.0L

The concept of “intelligent electrification” enables highly aggressive engine downsizing and down-speeding beyond what might normally be possible other than through more expensive hybridization approaches. Further energy recovery is achieved from CPT’s exhaust-mounted 48V turbine integrated exhaust gas energy recovery system known as TIGERS.

to eliminate turbo lag—in support of aggressive engine downsizing. The system can operate without a wastegate, using electrical energy storage to prepare for the next acceleration event. This takes advantage of recent developments in electric machine design, power electronics circuitry, and energy storage.

This is to be achieved through the synergistic application of an extremely downsized gasoline engine coupled with electrified boosting and exhaust gas energy recovery; micro-hybrid functionality with stop/start, torque assist and regenerative braking; and a novel energy storage technology.

The successful application of the technologies would allow a global vehicle manufacturer to reduce its in-use carbon footprint of a typical vehicle by 50g/km—a 30% reduction on today’s baseline. The exhaust gas can reach temperatures greater than 900 °C, whereas the turbine upper functional limit is 850 °C. SpeedStart.
