Offered in a variety of FCA vehicles in turbocharged and naturally aspirated variants, the engine is noted for its reduced size, weight, fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions. In the 2011 International Engine of the Year awards, the 875 cc (53.4 cu in) TwinAir won Best Engine Under 1 Litre, Best New Engine, Best Green Engine and International ...
Bi-fuel vehicles are vehicles with multifuel engines capable of running on two fuels. The two fuels are stored in separate tanks and the engine runs on one fuel at a time. On internal combustion engines, a bi-fuel engine typically burns gasoline and a volatile alternate fuel such as natural gas (CNG), LPG, or hydrogen. [1]
Diesel engines are typically well suited to turbocharging due to two factors: A "lean" air–fuel ratio, caused when the turbocharger supplies excess air into the engine, is not a problem for diesel engines, because the torque control is dependent on the mass of fuel that is injected into the combustion chamber (i.e. air-fuel ratio), rather than the quantity of the air-fuel mixture.
Twin-turbo is a type of turbo layout in which two turbochargers are used to compress the intake fuel/air mixture (or intake air, in the case of a direct-injection engine). The most common layout features two identical or mirrored turbochargers in parallel, each processing half of a V engine 's produced exhaust through independent piping.
Twin-turbo (in some models) Single-turbo (in the 2.8L LP9 and LAU) Fuel system: Sequential multi-port fuel injection Direct injection: Fuel type: Gasoline, E85, LPG: Oil system: Wet sump: Cooling system: Water-cooled: Output; Power output: 201–464 hp (150–346 kW; 204–470 PS) Torque output: 182–445 lb⋅ft (247–603 N⋅m) Emissions ...
You’ve heard the hypothesis before: Turbocharged cars miss their advertised fuel-economy figures more often and by larger margins than naturally aspirated cars. It’s a notion repeated so often ...
The 163 PS (120 kW), 170 PS (125 kW) and 204 PS (150 kW) versions employ a 2-stage (bi-turbo) charging setup with a small, high pressure turbo providing quick boost at low RPM fed by a large, lower pressure turbo providing increased performance at higher RPM, then at highest rpm ranges and loads, using both simultaneously.
The Navistar DT (Diesel Turbocharged or Diesel Turbo) engine family is a line of mid-range inline-6 diesel engines.With horsepower ratings ranging from 170 hp (130 kW) to 350 hp (260 kW), the Navistar DT engines are used primarily in medium-duty truck and bus applications such as school buses, although some versions have been developed for heavy-duty regional-haul and severe-service applications.
