Tóm tắt

The GEFORCE project resulted from a collaborative proposal submitted to a U.S. DOE funding opportunity announcement. The CRADA reported herein was put in place to support the GEFORCE project. The project objective was to establish key engine technologies and fuel characteristics that enable very high fuel efficiency with very low emissions in future vehicles. A matrix of study fuels was designed and produced to support engine experiments in an advanced engine. The advanced engine was constructed and prepared for operation in an engine test cell at a 3rd party laboratory. ORNL conducted engine experiments using a 2.0 LTG engine and used the resulting data to estimatefuel economy values for a mid-size sedan using a vehicle model established in Autonomie. The projected fuel economy trends versus driving schedule were consistent with those identified in a previous projectconducted in partnership with the Coordinating Research Council (CRC), AVFL-20. Additional vehicle modeling is anticipated when data are available from the advanced engine.
