Abstract: Part-load performance of a compound low-heat-rejection (LHR) engine is estimated at constant speed. The engine consists of an LHR diesel reciprocator geared to a supercharging compressor and an ...

Abstract: In the United States, private personal transportation has become dominated by the automobile, a platform supported on four wheels and propelled by an internal combustion engine (ICE). Some of ...

Abstract: The low-heat-rejection (LHR) diesel promises decreased engine fuel consumption by eliminating the traditional liquid cooling system and converting energy normally lost to the coolant into useful ...

Abstract: GMR (General Motors Research Laboratories, now GM R&D Center) has long sought ways to improve automotive combustion engines. Following World War II, considerable effort was also devoted to ...

Abstract: GMR (General Motors Research Laboratories, now GM R&D Center) has a history of improving the internal combustion engine, especially as it relates to automotive use. During the quarter century ...

Abstract: The significance of broadening the flow range of the compressor in an automotive gas turbine engine by lowering its surge-limited flow is cited. Following a review of flow instabilities observed ...
