Future emission limits for off-highway application engines need advanced power train solutions to meet stringent emissions legislation, whilst meeting customer requirements and minimizing engineering costs. Development of diesel engines for off-highway application for different power segments need different intake port design solutions to optimise in-cylinder flow structure for efficient combustion. With adaptation of low pressure mechanical fuel injection system, intake port development becomes an important stage for reduction of emission formation at the source and improvement in fuel economy. In this paper, intake port design and development process is elaborated for two different power ratings of 75 hp and 120 hp of off-highway engine. 2-valve and 4-valve configurations are deployed for the same cylinder bore size.

Rapidly depleting oil reserves and strict pollution regulations have made it necessary to find a substitute for diesel fuel. In the context of the multi-fuel strategy program, gasoline has improved the fuel availability for both combat and commercial highway vehicles with diesel engines. This study examines the effect of gasoline fuel on the engine wear, performance, and emission of a military, heavy-duty, supercharged diesel engine. In a CIDI diesel engine, the use of Gasoline has been considered to be significantly sustainable with engine performance and reduced pollutants. For this research a military heavy-duty, 38.8 L, 585kW, diesel engine, the EGR technique was used for gasoline and diesel fuels. Furthermore, the impact of nanoparticles on NOx emissions was also explored. NOx emission reduces in diesel engines by using the EGR technique. Two test fuels were tested in their trials for a total of 100 hours of engine endurance assessment.
