“…The goal of this research is to understand the comparison of the performance and CO 2 emission of the range extender engine by two types of engine on minimal engine capacity. This study is the continuation of the previous research that has been published previously [14]. In the previous research, some of the gasoline engines were compared to get the best performance and emission of the range extender engine.…”

Range extender engine is one of the main components of the range-extended electric vehicle (REEV) and together with a generator to extend the mileage of the electric vehicle. The main component of REEV is an electric motor, battery, and generator set that consist of generator and engine. In this study, we compared two models of REEV performance with two different types of the engine by simulation. Single cylinder 499 cc gasoline engine and single cylinder 667 cc diesel engine are chosen as the object of this research especially relating to the utilization of the fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions when fitted to an electric vehicle. The simulation was conducted by using AVL Cruise software and performed by entering the data, both experiment and simulation data, on all the main components of REEV. This simulation was performed in Japan 08 driving cycle. Based on the simulation, fuel consumption is reduced up to 35.59% for REEV with single cylinder diesel engine 667 cc compared to REEV with single cylinder gasoline engine 499 cc. The reduction of CO 2 emissions from REEV with single cylinder 499 cc gasoline engine compared to REEV with single cylinder 667 cc diesel engine up to 30.47%.

“…Along with the growth in the number of the appropriate infrastructure needs to be developed, it can provide a reliable and effective functioning of this type of transport. At the moment it is obvious that to do without building a broad urban and suburban network of charging stations for electrobuses and hybrid buses as well as for electric cars and plug-in hybrid cars is impossible which is reflected in the research papers [18][19][20][21]. The charging stations must be equipped in accordance with the environmental safety standards, and renewable and alternative energy sources (solar panels, wind turbines, etc.)…”

Reduction of non-renewable sources of energy and the ecological state of metropolises have become the cause of the search for optimal solutions for introduction of energyefficient and environmentally friendly technologies for urban bus transport, which is the purpose of this work. A review of environmentally friendly buses has shown that electric buses (electrobuses) are the most perspective. However, rapid replacement of all the buses with electrobuses is impossible because of their high cost. A comparative analysis of the operating costs of different types of buses of the same destination and class has been carried out in order to choose the optimal variant. Thus, one route of 4.23 km in length was chosen in Kharkiv (Ukraine). Experimental and calculated data showed that a minibus converted into an electrobus is the most acceptable means for urban passenger transportation. Ultra-capacitors are suggested as an energy source. The conceptual diagram of the model of such a bus is presented and the technical requirements for its components are determined. The data and proposals are useful for Ukraine and for countries with low economic development that cannot quickly replace old diesel buses with new, environmentally friendly, electrobuses. The results of this work are the basis for further research and development.

“…While it is fully understood that type-approval tests are necessary to standardise the reporting of fuel consumption and emission, real-world tests and driving characteristics form a crucial part of the engine development and testing. Manufacturers are putting in a lot of efforts to improve fuel economy over driving cycles which include technological advances on the engine itself and the development of electrical, hybrid, and range-extended engines [3]. From the industrial perspective, variable displacement, and stop-start systems are becoming widespread technology introduced into the modern market along with engine downsizing.…”

This paper presents a simulation-based study to evaluate three potential benefits of fuelsaving technologies implemented in spark-ignition (SI) engines for a passenger car over actual urban driving cycles. These technologies include cylinder deactivation (CDA), stop-start system, and engine downsizing (≈20% degree of downsizing). The aim of the work is to evaluate individual benefits of each system in terms of fuel consumption. GT-Power engine simulation tool is utilised to model engines which employ each of the mentioned technologies; each of the engines has identical full-load torque characteristics. Each engine model is instructed to run over a transient, part-load, torque driven operations based on actual road test measurements, and the cycle-averaged fuel consumption was evaluated. From the analysis, the contribution of each technology in terms of fuel economy can be assessed based on an actual part-load transient operation, which can be beneficial to developers to optimise the operation of SI engines. The results revealed stopstart system to be the most promising technology for the driving cycle at hand with 27.5% fuel consumption improvement over the baseline engine. CDA engine allows for 12.6% fuel economy improvement. On the other hand, the downsized turbocharged engine has caused increasing cycle fuel consumption by 7.5%. These findings are expected to be valid for typical urban driving cycles as far as they conform to the operating load residency points over the transient torque profile.
