FEV’s 698 cm 3 Extremely Downsized Engine. will show its Extremely Downsized Engine (EDE) at next week’s 2010 SAE World Congress in Detroit. Direct injection (DI) is integrated by replacing the twin spark ignition with a single spark plug on the exhaust side with the DI device in place of the removed spark plug on the intake side.

’s decision to cut stop producing the Colt subcompact there highlight the a downsizing trend in Europe for Japanese carmakers as the new-vehicle market there shrinks. The European Union will tighten carbon dioxide emission rules from 2012, with a goal of curbing exhaust on new vehicles to an average 130 grams per kilometer by 2015.

In implementing this 50% downsizing by swept volume, the research team delivered zero degradation in driveability, performance or acceleration. 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 three-cylinder EcoBoost engine.

A team at Monsanto and colleagues at AVL Powertrain have successfully designed and demonstrated an onboard low-temperature ethanol reformer that can be driven by exhaust heat. Many papers have described high-temperature steam reforming of ethanol at around 600 °C but.this temperature is too high to be driven by engine exhaust.

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.

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.

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. Click to enlarge.
