Abstract:Today, the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (specifically, CO2) represent the greatest challenge of the internal combustion (IC) engine and consequently, now, more than ever, the passenger car industry is looking for technologies meant to address this issue. Since CO2 emission is related to the combustion process occurring inside the engine, its reduction is inherently connected to lowering the fuel consumption, meaning that the only way to reduce it in the IC engine is to increase its overall efficiency. One so… Show more
