Experimental Comparison of Gasoline Compression Ignition and Diesel Combustion in a Medium-Duty Opposed-Piston Engine
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Achates Power Inc. (API) opposed-piston (OP) engine architecture provides fundamental advantages that increase thermal efficiency over current poppet valve 4 stroke engines. In this paper, the combustion performance ...
Initial Results on a New Light-Duty 2.7-L Opposed-Piston Gasoline Compression Ignition Multi-Cylinder Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Gasoline compression ignition (GCI) is a cost-effective approach to achieving diesel-like efficiencies with low emissions. The fundamental architecture of the two-stroke Achates Power Opposed-Piston (OP) Engine enables GCI ...
