Yesterday at the Tokyo Motor Show, Mazda released new info on its highly anticipated compression-ignition Skyactiv-X engine. It's all a bit daunting if you're not an engineer, but helpfully, Mazda put ...

Westport Fuel Systems recently unveiled its H 2 HPDI fuel system in a demonstrator truck. Westport’s HPDI fuel system technology enables heavy-duty trucks to operate on bio-methane (renewable natural ...

Light-duty compression-ignition (CI) engines operating on diesel fuels have the highest thermodynamic cycle efficiency of all light-duty engine types. The CI diesel thermodynamic cycle efficiency ...

Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition (RCCI) represents a low-temperature combustion concept that combines two fuels of differing chemical reactivity to achieve precise control over in-cylinder ...

The automotive industry continues to be a hotbed of innovation, with activity driven by factors such as auto-ignition properties of the fuel, fuel concentration, and residual rate, and growing ...

The study intends to calibrate the compression ignition (CI) engine split injection parameters as efficiently. The goal of the study is to find the best split injection parameters for a dual-fuel ...

In the race to field energy-efficient vehicles, don’t count out internal combustion technology just yet. GM recently debuted its homogeneous-charge-compression-ignition (HCCI) system in two drivable ...

The automotive ignition system is an incredibly amazing machine that has evolved for more than 100 years already and continues to evolve as the demand drives the need to develop more efficient engines ...

No Ford engine project is complete without a properly functioning ignition system. This system has the important job of delivering the spark to the required cylinder at precisely the right time. Any ...

Mazda’s new SkyActiv-X engine will go against every convention you thought you understood about gasoline engines. It’s supercharged, but for efficiency purposes, not to increase power. It has a ...

Here in 2019, only the most fringe reactionaries are able to claim with a straight face that climate change is not a thing. But after years of the media doing its “two sides” thing, recalcitrant ...

Have you ever wondered how a small key in your hand is able to start a car engine and keep it running until you turn it off? This, will be the subject of discussion at the Car Clinic this Saturday at ...
