Automotive Technology Trends Toward Euro6

Development of automotive technology aims to make environmentally friendly cars at the same time still pretty rushed. Although obtained from a small component, but with a lot of numbers, the result will be great. That's why the development carried out on various components mein.

Computer Engineering

This tool determines the composition and proportions of air and fuel mixture to be supplied and burned in the engine. Currently, the component that is also called the engine control unit (ECU) was still using the EM platform 2. Use of rated success for machines with various types of fuel. For example, gasoline, diesel, CNG or compressed natural gas (CNG), liquefied petroleum gas, including biofuels and hybrid cars.

The latest version is already prepared to use in 2011, including the hardware and software is the EMS 3. Latest computers, microcontrollers are united in a single chip set. The result, computers became smaller and lighter. 

Sensors

Improved exhaust gas processing technology by using a regenerator parikulat filters and SCR systems to reduce nitrogen oxides. Including sensors later hydrocarbons (HC) precision for hybrid cars.

Double Clutch

Transmission, the trend is the use of double (dual) clutch or dual clutch. The number of car manufacturers are using more and more. TKG combines the ease of automatic transmission with manual-efficient and sports performance. Late last year, Continental claims succeeded in becoming the first company to make dry TKG controlled electromechanical. The result, compared to automatic transmission 6-speed torque conveter, TKG make consumption more efficient bahakar 6 percent.

Turbochargers

To make the smaller engine size but still produce a large torque force funds, transplantation turbocharged gasoline engine in the more "endemic". Mainly done by manufacturers from Germany, which generally produces a premium or luxury cars. Boasts a twin-turbo BMW, Mercedes-Benz with CGI. Even the producers of the latter dared to replace the old compressor technologists pride with a turbocharger. The same was done by Audi and VW. Next year more and more European cars that use turbo platforms. The technology is named, among others, EfficientDynamics (BMW), BlueEfficiency (MB) and BlueMotion (VW). Growing interest of manufacturers of luxury cars using turbochargers because it works more sophisticated controller. Turbo already working on low speed. Exhaust stream that activates the turbo, is now governed by a valve that works electrically.

GDI and VVT

Gasoline direct injection increasingly used to obtain the efficiency of the engine work. In fact, together with a turbocharger plus working arrangements with open-close valve which varies according to engine speed. The result, small engines a great power.

Electric Pumps The system supplier is the latest developed high-pressure fuel pump, the plunger is single and able to maintain a constant pressure 50 bar designed for hybrid cars. There is now used on luxury cars equipped with automatic system stop / start. System that stops the flow of fuel the car is stationary and the third new supply them back if the car was road.
