  • Harry Ricardo – a Passion for Efficiency
    The Piston Engine Revolution Harry Ricardo – A Passion for Efficiency David Morrison Harry Ricardo, born in 1885, was a true pioneer of internal combustion engine research and development, designing and building his first practical engine from the age of 16. His early life, especially at Trinity College, Cambridge, coincided with some key embryonic developments in internal combustion engines, which had a strong influence on his research, especially the work of Bertram Hopkinson and Sir Dugald Clerk. He was passionate about energy efficiency in both his business and private life. This paper covers Harry Ricardo’s early work, experimenting with stratified charge concepts as early as 1903, leading to his work in the early decades of the twentieth century which generated internationally-renowned designs in both diesel and gasoline road vehicle combustion systems. Of these, perhaps the Comet indirect injection system for diesel engines was the most prolific and persisted in various forms well into the 1980s. A very important opportunity for the company was the early work with Shell to study the influence of fuel properties, using a Ricardo variable compression ratio engine. During his time, he had none of the powerful simulation and visualisation tools we take for granted today. He had to use his vivid imagination by trying to visualise what the airflow and fuel mixing must be like inside a combustion chamber. Significant engines up to 1950 included the Dolphin two-stroke, the Comet IDI diesel engine for the world’s first production diesel car – the Citroen Rosalie, the Rolls-Royce diesel conversion for the Flying Spray land speed record car and many developments of spark-ignition combustion systems, including the Turbulent Head.

  • Stars of the Stage
    STARS OF THE STAGE When the World Rally Championship first began in 1973, only the car manufacturers fought for a crown; it wasn’t until 1979 that the drivers were recognised with their own world title. They soon made up for lost time, however, and over the past four decades the WRC has been a constant source of drama, heroism and displays of unbelievable skill. So as the Festival celebrates 40 years of the World Rally Drivers’ Championship this weekend, we remember some of those who have fought for and won the sport’s greatest prize STORY BY ANGUS FRAZER Left: Petter Solberg and co-driver Phil Mills celebrate victory in the 2002 Rally GB. Right: Sébastien Ogier powers his Citroën to third in the 2019 Argentine Rally Rallying’s first World Champion proved that while sublime skill and dogged determination are both prerequisites for victory, ruthlessness Björn is not. Described by those who knew him as a true gentleman (and sometimes as a teddy bear), the late Björn Waldegård won the inaugural World Rally Drivers’ Championship in 1979 (prior to that, the competition had Waldegård been held for two years as an FIA ‘Cup for Drivers’, won by Sandro Munari in 1977 and Markku Alén in 1978). All through that season, Waldegård battled Hannu Mikkola, his team-mate not just at Ford in the pace-setting Escort RS but also at Mercedes-Benz. The German company had 1979 hired the duo to pilot the powerful if unwieldy 5.0-litre V8 automatic 450SLC Coupé on the Safari and Ivory Coast events.
