Combustion Engines and Hybrid Vehicles - IMechE Conference

The IMechE is the United Kingdom's qualifying body for mechanical engineers and the home of mechanical engineers for over 150 years. Around 75,000 engineers world-wide are members.

• Introductory papers: HYZEM - a joint approach towards understanding hybrid vehicle introdction into Europe CO2 reduction - is increasing the diesel share the way togo? Internal combustion engines in hybrid vehiclesCombustion: development of a hydraulic dynamic combustion rig for studies of fuel quality usng visualizaton in two directions. Engine challenges to convention: the potential of the Pivotal engine design to meet the requirements of future internal combustion engines. the merritt cycle gasoline engine - description and performance dataAn Atkinson cycle engine for low pollutionThe design, manufacture and demonstration of a simple, yet effective, common rail fuel injection system for 100cc enginesEngines and combustion: interpreting diesel comustion with a fuel spray computer modelDisel injection - laser light sheet illumination of the developemnt of cavitation in orificesAnalysis of axial stratification on SI engine performance and emissionsLaser diagnostic techniques for gasolne direct injection combustion system developmentHybrid vehicles: simulation and control of an IC engine/generator auxiliary power unit for use in a series by hybrid electric vehicleTNO-ADVANCE - a modular power-train simulation and design toolDevelopment and application of map-controlled drive managment for a BMW parallel hybrid vehicle1 optimization techniques for automotive idle speed controlSYTech engines reduce packaging and NVH problems in hybrid vehicles - the CMC SYTech engine provides more advantages than are immediately obviousA testbed for the deisgn and the optmization of a series hybrid drive train.
