Abstract This report is a preliminary survey of the technological feasi- bility of reducing ,the fuel consumption of automobiles. The study uses as a reference information derived from literature, automobile industry contacts, and testing conducted as part of the program requirements. The design changes, which are recommended for the pur- pose of maximizing fuel economy, have been derived after lengthy reviek against a series of constraints including regulatory requirements, technical feasibility, and cost effectiveness. Several possible technological improvements are identified, documented, and evaluated with respect to fuel economy. Results are reported as percentage improvement in fuel economy by comparison with 1973 model year vehicles. The effect of vehicle emission control systems is considered in the evaluation procedure. The most promising individual improvements are incorporated into three synthesized vehicle designs, and the projected fuel economy improvement for these vehicles is reported. The status of the technology reported is that available in the time period of July 1973 to January 1974. Volume I1 consists of two parts, Volume I1 A and Volume I1 B. 18. Distribution Statement 17.

The Government has been actively engaged in reviewing the technological and institutional actions that can be taken to reduce our transportation energy demand. One such effort is the preliminary study covered in this report on the technological feasibility of improved fuel economy in auton~obiles. The work described in this report was performed by Southwest Research Institute for the U.S. Department of Transportation and the US. Environmental Protection Agency. The project was monitored by the Power and Propulsion Branch, Mechanical Engineering Division, Transportation Systems Center, U.S. Department of Transportation. The technical monitor for the project was H. Gould. The authors recognize the timely significance of this study, and despite warnings to the con- trary, information may be taken out of context. For these reasons, the report has been written in an instructive fashion to acquaint the uninitiated reader with facts about automobile design. Hope- fully, this instruction will nullify the majority of inisconceptions and provide insight into an exceed- ingly complex issue. This work does not address the overall automobile transportation energy problem, but it is directed to one of the major components of the American automobile market-the ‘‘large’’ automo- bile. Specifically, this study is concerned with cars of the 4300- and 3300-lb curb weight classes. These vehicles are frequently identified by Federal Test Procedure inertia weight class with cor- responding values of 3500 and 4500 lb. The status of the technology reported is that available in the time period of July 1973 to January 1974. iii b The work covered in this report represents approximately a three-man year level of effort and was conducted over a six-month period. The goals ofthe project are ambitious, and the effort of each member of the project team was vital to the final product. Space does not permit the listing of all participants. but major efforts were contributed by: Dr. C. W. Coon, Senior Research Engineer B. C.

  • Lotus and Eaton's Electrohydraulic Closed-Loop Fully Variable Valve Train System
    J.W.G. Turner and S.A. Kenchington Lotus Engineering, Norwich, UK D.A. Stretch Eaton Automotive, Southfield, Michigan, USA Production AVT Development: Lotus and Eaton's Electrohydraulic Closed-Loop Fully Variable Valve Train System Entwicklung eines Serien-AVT-Systems: Lotus’ und Eatons elektrohydraulischer voll variabler Ventiltrieb (AVT) 1. Introduction Lotus and Eaton are collaborating to bring a production closed loop control Fully Variable Valve Timing system, known as Active Valve Train (AVT), to market in the 2008-9 timeframe. The system uses electrohydraulic operation, movement of the engine poppet valves being initiated by oil flow into and out of a hydraulic chamber which is controlled by fast acting electrohydraulic servo valves developed by the two companies. This in turn allows infinitely variable timing, duration and lift. The system, which is currently being engineered in prototype form for an OEM, will allow ready application of many advanced engine control strategies, such as throttleless operation, Controlled Auto Ignition (or Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition), fast start, variable firing order, differential cylinder loading and ultimately air hybridisation. However, to gain acceptance in the marketplace, the two partners understand that productionisation must not come at the expense of high Bill Of Materials cost, and in controlling that requirement, the performance of the system must not be allowed to suffer. This paper relates the present developmental status of the system from a valve control standpoint and describes some of the design features which have been adopted to fulfil the above requirements. An estimate of BOM costs for a typical light duty automotive application is also given.

  • On the Morning of Thursday, January 14, 1926 Fire Broke out in The
    Found on Ancestry.com (Author Unknown) On the morning of Thursday, January 14, 1926 fire broke out in the company’s sanding machine and spread spontaneously through the blowers to different parts of the room. In the few hours that followed, Onaway’s main means of livelihood went up in smoke and although the city still exists, it has never reached the proportion it was on that historical day. With the presence of the American Wood Rim Co. and its sister company, the Lobdell Emerey Manufacturing Co., Onaway experienced tremendous growth in its early year. The big industry, along with the profitable timber business made Onaway the biggest little town in northern Michigan. According to one report, Onaway had two newspapers, three lawyers, four doctors, three large hotels, 17 saloons, nine churches, two bakeries, a fairgrounds, racetrack and an opera house in the pre-fire days. The figure varies, but Onaway’s population was approximately 4,000 and the two huge industries employed anywhere from 1200 to 1500 persons. The Lobdell Emery Manufacturing co. was involved in lumbering, sawmill operations and the making of such products as dowels, broom handles, and coat hanger stock. The American Wood Rim Co., was the world’s largest and finest producer of automobile steering wheels and bicycle rims. For a number of years the company made all the steering wheels with either malleable iron or aluminum spiders. The alumi- num spiders were all molded and finished in the plant while the malleable iron castings were purchased from outside sour- ces. During its last few years in Onaway, the American Wood Rim Co.
