Descripción del proyecto
Una solución híbrida para un uso sostenible de motores de combustión interna
Uno de los principales objetivos estratégicos de la Unión Europea es alcanzar una movilidad respetuosa con el medio ambiente, algo que podría resultar más factible con tecnologías innovadoras, soluciones eléctricas y el uso de combustibles alternativos. El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos PHOENICE desarrollará un demostrador de vehículo híbrido eléctrico enchufable de categoría SUV C con un consumo de combustible y unas emisiones contaminantes minimizadas para las condiciones de conducción del mundo real. PHOENICE se propone alcanzar un nivel de preparación tecnológica 7 centrándose en el coste, la industrialización y la oportunidad para diversas categorías de vehículos con el fin de disfrutar de las mayores ventajas medioambientales y económicas.
Objetivo
PHOENICE aims at developing a C SUV-class plug-in hybrid (P1/P4) vehicle demonstrator whose fuel consumption and pollutant emissions will be jointly minimized for real world driving conditions. This development will require the optimisation of a highly efficient gasoline engine, relying on a dual dilution combustion approach with excess air and EGR, synergizing an innovative in-cylinder charge motion with high pressure injection, novel ignition technologies, and an electrified turbocharger particularly relevant for hybrid architectures. The potential of alternative fuels produced by P2X processes will also be considered. To achieve the targeted near-zero emissions in transient conditions specific to PHEV in real driving conditions, the demonstrator vehicle will be equipped with a complete and dedicated after-treatment system including an electrically heated catalyst, a SCR and a GPF for abating NOx, particle number down to 10 nm, and non-regulated gaseous emissions.
The vehicle overall efficiency will be increased with an exhaust waste heat recovery system for generating an additional electric power contribution for cabin heating or cooling, or for reducing the switch-on time of the internal combustion engine in cold conditions, thereby limiting the engine-out pollutant emissions such as particles.
Virtual methods will be employed to reduce the calibration time of all the vehicle sub-systems. The vehicle control will use all the flexibility of the hybrid architecture and sub-systems to lower in real time the driving emissions and fuel consumption.
Technologies developed in PHOENICE will achieve a TRL 7 paying a specific attention to cost, industrialization, and to the use opportunity for various vehicle classes so as to maximize the economic and environmental impacts. This project will support the European automobile industry in the medium term and speed up the transition towards a more environmentally friendly mobility in terms of air quality and GHG emissions.
