Gasoline engine turbo-charging - advanced cycle development

Objective

New technologies for turbo-charging including variable geometry of the turbine and compressor, to increase air flow range, and necessary high temperature turbine operation for gasoline engine, could now be developed with respect to recent progress in the materials, aerodynamics and process fields; It is therefore necessary to improve the engine combustion process to get the benefits from these new turbo-chargers and reduce fuel consumption of the downsized engines in keeping high compression ratios without knocking. Knocking resistance is a key issue of this project and many directions should be investigated for both steady state and transient engine operation as: Miller cycle which variable valve timing to optimise effective compression ratio, combustion chamber and cylinder head cooling design for knocking resistance.
