U-M researchers collaborating with Volvo Technology of America are contributing to the demonstration of an engine with 55% peak brake thermal efficiency.
University of Michigan researchers have contributed to Volvo’s demonstration engine that will achieve a peak of 55% brake thermal efficiency, meaning high fuel efficiency. U-M studies showed a 35% reduction in nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions for heavy-duty trucks using extreme Miller cycle with high intake boost while enabling higher thermal efficiency. “The research findings identify […]
