ASSIGNMENT TITLE: Developments in IC Engines POWER PLANT MECHANICAL DEPARTMENT Developments in IC Engine An internal combustion engine (ICE) is a heat engine where the combustion of a fuel occurs with an oxidizer (usually air) in a combustion chamber that is an integral part of the working fluid flow circuit. IC engines are one of the oldest technologies still prevailing for nearly about 200 years. This milestone is possible because of the continuous development technologies applied to them. Let us discuss about some of the new developments in IC engines briefly 1.Turbocharger (TDI- Turbocharged Direct Injection): These are nothing but turbines which are operated by engine exhaust gases to produce power for a compressor which is in turn used to increase the mass flow rate of air, which is sucked inside during the intake stroke. This method, increases the power and performance of an IC engine. 2. Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) : This method is often used in Gasoline engines. As the name indicates, it involves the direct injection of Gasoline into the combustion chamber of an engine by means of electrically controlled actuators and sensors. This method helps in metering the quantity of the fuel injected, based on our requirements thereby reducing fuel consumption. 3.Variable Valve Timing (VVT): This method involves the electronic control of valves, thereby adjusting the valve opening and closing mechanism based on our needs. This technology also improves fuel efficiency and performance. 4. Common Rail Direct Injection (Crdi): This method is often used in Diesel engines to control and maintain the effective usage of fuel under different conditions. It consists of a common rail, were the fuel accumulates and then supplied to the cylinders through high pressure injectors. 5. Start- Stop Technology: This method is used to stop the vehicle when it is idle for a long period of time. i.e during traffic. This helps in reducing fuel consumption. Now, to start the vehicle, it is enough to hold the clutch. This method also reduces emissions. 6. Catalytic Converters: Today, due to the stringent emission norms, after treatment devices are necessary to bring down the emissions in an IC engine. Catalytic converters are one of the devices which reduces the emissions from IC engines, thereby making them to comply with the emission standards. FYI.
