This book was released on 1945 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small high-speed single-cylinder compression-ignition engines were tested to determine their performance characteristics under high supercharging. Calculations were made on the energy available in the exhaust gas of the compression-ignition engines. The maximum power at any given maximum cylinder pressure was obtained when the compression pressure was equal to the maximum cylinder pressure. Constant-pressure combustion was found possible at an engine speed of 2200 rpm. Exhaust pressures and temperatures were determined from an analysis of indicator cards. The analysis showed that, at rich mixtures with the exhaust back pressure equal to the inlet-air pressure, there is excess energy available for driving a turbine over that required for supercharging. The presence of this excess energy indicates that a highly supercharged compression-ignition engine might be desirable as a compressor and combustion chamber for a turbine.

Book excerpt: Turbocharging Normally Aspirated Engines on a Budget is a clear and detailed book that explains a method to turbocharge any engine - so the average gearhead can design a system that will be both reliable and low cost at the same time. This explains how to make custom turbocharger installations for any car, not bolt-on kits. Includes Toyota, GM, Dodge, and Mazda examples, tested and proven by Autocross racing experience, which can be copied directly or used as a roadmap to turbocharge other engines. Topics include eliminating spark knock, calculating horsepower, selecting turbocharger, CE (Compressor Efficiency), MAP, MAF, fuel injectors, upgrading the fuel system, intercoolers, and more. Written by an engineer. Includes detailed wiring diagrams, graphs, tables, formulas, and plenty of photographs. An Excel spreadsheet (for calculating turbocharger performance) described in the book can be downloaded from the author at LS6Fiero at Yahoo dot com.

This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The light-duty vehicle fleet is expected to undergo substantial technological changes over the next several decades. New powertrain designs, alternative fuels, advanced materials and significant changes to the vehicle body are being driven by increasingly stringent fuel economy and greenhouse gas emission standards. By the end of the next decade, cars and light-duty trucks will be more fuel efficient, weigh less, emit less air pollutants, have more safety features, and will be more expensive to purchase relative to current vehicles. Though the gasoline-powered spark ignition engine will continue to be the dominant powertrain configuration even through 2030, such vehicles will be equipped with advanced technologies, materials, electronics and controls, and aerodynamics. And by 2030, the deployment of alternative methods to propel and fuel vehicles and alternative modes of transportation, including autonomous vehicles, will be well underway. What are these new technologies - how will they work, and will some technologies be more effective than others? Written to inform The United States Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards, this new report from the National Research Council is a technical evaluation of costs, benefits, and implementation issues of fuel reduction technologies for next-generation light-duty vehicles. Cost, Effectiveness, and Deployment of Fuel Economy Technologies for Light-Duty Vehicles estimates the cost, potential efficiency improvements, and barriers to commercial deployment of technologies that might be employed from 2020 to 2030. This report describes these promising technologies and makes recommendations for their inclusion on the list of technologies applicable for the 2017-2025 CAFE standards.

Download or read book High Compression Ratio Turbo Gasoline Engine Operation Using Alcohol Enhancement written by Raymond A. Lewis and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gasoline - ethanol blends were explored as a strategy to mitigate engine knock, a phenomena in spark ignition engine combustion when a portion of the end gas is compressed to the point of spontaneous auto-ignition. This auto-ignition is dangerous to the operation of an internal combustion engine, as it can severely damage engine components. As engine designers are trying to improve the efficiency of the internal combustion engine, engine knock is a key limiting factor in engine design. Two methods have been used to limit engine knock that will be considered here; retarding the spark timing and addition of additives to reduce the tendency of the fuel mixture to knock. Both have drawbacks. Retarding spark reduces the engine efficiency and additives typically lower the heating value of the fuel, requiring more fuel for a given operating point. To study this problem a turbocharged engine was tested with a variety of combinations of gasoline and ethanol, an additive with very good anti-knock abilities. Pressure was recorded and GT Power simulations were used to determine the temperature within the cylinder. An effective octane number was calculated to measure the ability of the fuel to resist knock. Effective octane numbers varied from 91 for UTG91 to 111 for E25, respectively. Engine simulations were used to extrapolate to points that couldn't be tested in the experimental setup and generate performance maps which could be used to predict how the engine would act inside of a vehicle. It was found that increasing the compression ratio from 9.2 to 13.5 leads to a 7% relative increase in part load efficiency. When applied in a vehicle this leads to a 2-6% increase in miles per gallon of gasoline consumption depending on the drive cycle used. Miles per gallon of ethanol used were significantly higher than gasoline; 141 miles per gallon of ethanol was the lowest mileage over all cycles studied.

Download or read book Liquid Piston Engines written by Aman Gupta and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-07-21 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only book available on liquid piston engines, covering the design, application, maintenance, troubleshooting, and advances in the technology. Whether used in irrigation, cooling nuclear reactors, pumping wastewater, or any number of other uses, the liquid piston engine is a much more efficient, effective, and "greener" choice than many other choices available to industry. Especially if being used in conjunction with solar panels, the liquid piston engine can be extremely cost-effective and has very few, if any, downsides or unwanted side effects. As industries all over the world become more environmentally conscious, the liquid piston engine will continue growing in popularity as a better choice, and its low implementation and operational costs will be attractive to end-users in developing countries. This is the only comprehensive, up-to-date text available on liquid piston engines. The first part focuses on the identification, design, construction and testing of the liquid piston engine, a simple, yet elegant, device which has the ability to pump water but which can be manufactured easily without any special tooling or exotic materials and which can be powered from either combustion of organic matter or directly from solar heating. It has been tested, and the authors recommend how it might be improved upon. The underlying theory of the device is also presented and discussed. The second part deals with the performance, troubleshooting, and maintenance of the engine. This volume is the only one of its kind, a groundbreaking examination of a fascinating and environmentally friendly technology which is useful in many industrial applications. It is a must-have for any engineer, manager, or technician working with pumps or engines.
