| Popis: |
Carrying over the major trend of downsizing from passenger cars to commercial engines is not entirely possible for several reasons. One reason is that commercial engines have to also comply with the most stringent exhaust gas emission limits at full load. Another one is a much higher requirement regarding the life time of the engine. Both reasons limit the achievable specific performance to a rather low level compared to passenger car engines. Nevertheless development engineers are challenged more than ever with the need to reduce fuel consumption, size and weight of heavy duty engines. Moreover this has to be fulfilled at acceptable engine costs. This paper shows a possibility to combine the advantages of downsizing with the requirements of a commercial engine. This is achieved by reducing the number of cylinders but keeping the total displacement of the original engine. |
