Discover the engineering marvel behind Mazda's Skyactiv-D 2.2 diesel engine, and what lies ahead for diesel fuel.
Mazda's powertrain team has brewed up a fancy new engine that, like a diesel, uses compression to activate the combustion process. In a press release on the new tech, Mazda tells us just how ...
The goal of Hyundai's engine technology, which the company calls Gasoline Direct Injection Compression Ignition (GDCI), is to return the fuel economy of a diesel but with the higher performance, ...
A fundamental difference between gasoline and diesel engines is that a gasoline engine uses spark ignition while a diesel engine uses compression ignition. Before we delve deeper, let's understand how ...
In 1673, Christian Huygens invented the first engine. It was designed to pump water from the Seine River to King Louis XIV's Palace of Versailles. Built with an open combustion chamber, it consumed ...
As Mazda and Infiniti have proved, there's a lot of innovation left in the internal-combustion engine. One of the more wild concepts we've seen is called Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition ...
SAE International Journal of Engines, Vol. 14, No. 3 (2021), pp. 335-344 (10 pages) The addition of a spark plug in place of the original fuel injector and fumigating natural gas (NG) inside the ...
Car manufacturers are delving deep into their boxes of tricks to make internal combustion engines more efficient. Infiniti unveiled a variable compression ratio engine last year, and hybrid technology ...
Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engines combine a diesel's torque and fuel efficiency with a gas engine's cleaner emissions. The HCCI technique has been a goal of automakers since the ...
General Motors will display an advanced technology compression ignition engine at its Milford Proving Grounds in Michigan today. The engine is a peek at new internal combustion engine developments at ...
Diesel engines and gasoline engines are so fundamentally different that it’s possible to do real damage simply by filling up your car with the wrong fuel. Converting a diesel engine to actually ...
