Dutch start-up ECONAMIQ is developing a novel engine technology which saves up to 20% in fuel consumption. The “ECONAMIQ principle” uses flexible over-expansion in combination with cylinder deactivation technology to increase performance and efficiency without significantly changing the engine layout or architecture.

Schematic of downsized and supercharged four-stroke hybrid pneumatic spark injection engine. The reduction in fuel consumption is obtained mainly through enabling the effective use of a heavily downsized engine, rather than from regenerative efficiency. Source: ETH Zürich. Click to enlarge.

DOE also announced up to $35 million to advance fuel cell and hydrogen technologies, including enabling the early adoption of fuel cell applications, such as light duty fuel cell electric vehicles. Increased efficiency may be achieved using one or more proposed enabling technologies on a baseline engine. turbomachinery.

High-pressure air jet controlled compression ignition (JCCI) is based on a compound thermodynamic cycle and is implemented in a hybrid pneumatic engine (HPE) as proposed by Schechter in 1999. The application of HPE is also beneficial to the fuel consumption and emissions because of its several flexible operation modes.

It is believed that when fully developed with its turbo charged and air hybrid components, the engine will achieve significant gains in fuel efficiency - potentially making it the most significant advance since the Otto cycle more than 130 years ago. The event takes place from June 16-18 in Stuttgart, Germany.

In its chapter, Ricardo considered a number of potential roles for liquid air considered in which the air is used as a heat sink and then as a working fluid within a heat engine. The heat engine can be deployed as either the prime mover or in a supporting role to recover waste heat from a conventional engine or fuel cell.
