Improvements of vehicle fuel economy may be achieved by the introduction of advanced internal combustion engines (ICE) improving the fuel conversion efficiency of the engine and of advanced power trai....
Oil Filter change interval is widely defined as a mileage, expressed in Kilometres/Miles of the Vehicle driven. On the other hand, for convenience, repeatability and differentiation reasons, the Filte....
Diesel injection equipment is required to be more accurate and higher in pressure to meet the increasingly strict emission, fuel consumption regulations and higher engine performance. It also needs to....
With fuel costs continuing to rise, and with regulations seeking to lower overall fuel emissions, improved fuel economy has become indispensible for today's gasoline engine designer. Reducing engine f....
This paper describes why thermal engine data of the main components around the combustion chamber are main issues when calculating ring pack dynamics. Examples are given to illustrate and physically e....
The overhead camshaft engine efficiency can be improved by control of the rotation and phase of the cam shaft rotation. The aim of this paper is to show the improvements that have been made to the cam....
An experimental analysis was executed on a NA (Natural Aspirated) 4-stroke gasoline engine to investigate the potential of exhaust waste energy recovery using power turbine technology for light duty a....
Improving idle sound quality as well as reducing idle noise level is increasingly demanded for diesel engines. Therefore, unusual noise occurrence at idle is a serious problem, and the noise must be r....
The use of modern simulation tools in the engine product development process is explained using the layout of a piston and its piston ring-pack of AUDI V6 SI-engine as example. Based on the requiremen....
