The approach that Cummins and partners have taken features: Replacing the aluminium V8 gasoline engine and emission control system with smaller diesel (2.8-liter) diesel weighs 362 lbs (164 kg), while the ECS weighs 152 lbs (69 kg).

At the 17 th Supercharging conference this week in Dresden, Controlled Power Technologies (CPT) will launch what it says is the first water-cooled electric supercharger developed for “quasi-continuous” boosting of commercial diesel engines, including those developed for off highway applications. tonnes gross vehicle weight.

Achates Power says that its 2-stroke OP engine offers higher best point brake thermal efficiency than diesel or gasoline engines. Opposed-piston engines have been around since the Junkers Jumo 205 diesel aviation engine in the 1930s. Since the pistons cyclically expose or occlude the exhaust and intake ports, there is no valve train.

DENSO Corporation has improved the temperature detection accuracy of its newly developed diesel exhaust temperature sensor. To improve the sensor’s temperature accuracy, DENSO increased the probe length to almost twice that of the conventional product and extended the sensing tip into the exhaust pipe.

The need to reduce CO 2 emissions is leading to downsized engines, heavily boosted by turbo- or supercharging. Gasoline engines are typically less expensive than diesels for the same application but have higher exhaust temperatures, making advanced turbocharging more difficult. million today to 12 million by 2016.

Highly turbocharged alcohol-fueled direct-injection spark-ignition (DISI) engines operated at a high compression ratio could be as or more efficient than diesel engines while also providing advantages of lower vehicle cost, lower emissions and higher power, according to a recent modeling study by Leslie Bromberg and Daniel Cohn at MIT.

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. The engine has two intake and two exhaust valves per cylinder. Dönitz et al.
