  • Borgwarner Louis Schwitzer Award
    KENT, WILES, MILLER AND O’CONNOR WIN 2012 BORGWARNER LOUIS SCHWITZER AWARD GM Returns to IndyCar with Powerful, Fuel Efficient Chevrolet IndyCar V6 Engine Auburn Hills, Michigan, May 21, 2012 – The 46th annual BorgWarner Louis Schwitzer Award has been presented to engineers Mark Kent and Matt Wiles from General Motors (GM) and Steve Miller and Steve O’Connor from Ilmor Engineering for the Chevrolet IndyCar V6 Engine. Designed for fuel efficiency, performance and low friction, the 2.2-liter twin-turbo engine has demonstrated superior fuel economy while posting four wins in the first four IZOD IndyCar® Series races of the 2012 season. GM’s first IndyCar engine since 2004 was built through a collaborative effort, uniting GM’s experience in E85 fuel and direct injection with Ilmor Engineering’s race engine design expertise. GM’s goal was to develop new technologies for a powerful fuel-efficient engine that could be transferred to production cars. To boost performance and throttle response, the engine uses twin turbochargers. The production-car based Hitachi fuel delivery system was enhanced with six high-pressure direct injectors in the heads and six lower-pressure injectors in the plenum. Operating at up to 12,000 RPM, this is the highest revving direct injection engine in racing competition today. Computer models and empirical testing led to a technology breakthrough in the placement of the injectors that could be utilized in production cars. Special coatings in the engine and exhaust system reduce friction and improve fuel economy. Compression ratios and piston shapes were also designed for optimal thermodynamics.

    LITERATURE REVIEW ON STABILIZING HIGH SPEED VALVE- AND DRIVETRAIN CONCEPTS FOR RACING APPLICATIONS Internship at the engine development department of Audi Sport Prof. Dr. Ir. A. de Boer Dipl. -Ing. S. Wohlgemuth Thomas Roodink s1501623 [email protected] Introductory remarks In the summer season of 2016 I was allowed to do a six month internship within the research department of Audi Sport in Neckarsulm Germany. A dream came true after Le Mans 2015 when I offered my curriculum vitae to Mr. Baretzky, head of the engine department of Audi Sport. I want to thank him deeply for giving me the opportunity to be part of his team. Moreover, I want to thank Prof. Dr. Ir. A. de Boer of the University of Twente for the great support during the internship and for his flexibility before the start of the internship. A very special thanks goes to Dipl. -Ing. S. Wohlgemuth of the engine research department of Audi Sport for sharing his great knowledge, passion and support. “There is no such thing as cam design, there is only valve lift profile design which requires the creation of a cam and follower mechanism to reliably provide this designed valve lift profile.” G.
