Development of A 1.5L High-Efficiency and High-Specific-Power Hybrid Engine 2022-01-7062

Although the brake thermal efficiency of the state-of-the-art Atkinson-cycle hybrid engines have reached 41%, such engines typically have a low specific power. The ideal hybrid engines for SUVs should have a high thermal efficiency as well as a high specific power. Jiangling Motors recently developed a 4-cylinder, 1.5L TGDI hybrid Miller engine for powering mid-size SUVs, which has achieved 42% brake thermal efficiency, 19.3-bar BMEP, and 73.3-kW/L specific power. The engine has a high compression ratio, a long stroke, and is equipped with a low-pressure EGR system. It can operate with the stoichiometric mixture on the full engine map, with the help of the water-cooled exhaust manifold and the intelligent thermal management system.
