| SAE Commercial Vehicle Engineering Congress and Exhibition The Scuderi Group announced that they will be demonstrating the benefits of their breakthrough Air-Hybrid commercial diesel engine next week at the SAE Commercial Vehicle Engineering Congress and Exhibition which takes place Oct. 31 to Nov. 2 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill. The design and performance of the Scuderi Air-Hybrid Engine – potentially the world's most efficient internal combustion engine – has been verified by one of the world's leading independent engine testing laboratories. The Scuderi Air-Hybrid design is particularly well-suited for diesel systems. With even a more dramatic impact on diesel engines than on gasoline engines, Scuderi technology improves the performance of diesel engines and reduces their complexity and cost. The Scuderi Air-Hybrid feature with the most significant impact on cost may well be the reduction or total elimination of the exhaust treatment system. Because the unique method of firing after top dead center is combined with a very fast moving power piston, the two biggest emission problems for diesel engines (NOx and soot) are eliminated or drastically reduced. With the sophistication and cost of the exhaust treatment systems growing rapidly, emission reduction has been the greatest challenge for today's diesel engine manufacturers. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Exhibition News :: home page |
