Cel
The four year Integrated Project "New Integrated Combustion System for Future Passenger Car Engines (NICE)" is proposed by the European automotive industry, at its highest responsibility level. The main objective of NICE is to develop a new integrated combustion system that, independently on the type of fuel (i.e. fuel neutral), is able to achieve the today highest fuel conversion efficiency of the DI diesel engine (43%), while complying with a zero-impact emission level. As a fallout of the achieved knowledge and realized technologies of such an integrated combustion system, innovative Diesel- and Otto-cycle engines, to be considered as by-products of the NICE research, are developed. These by-products will allow Europe to maintain the leadership in the production of internal combustion engines in the years 2010 - 2015, while allowing the completion of the integrated combustion system in an innovative powertrain, able to cover the years up to 2020. The fully flexible powertrain will be characterised by very high fuel conversion efficiency, mainly using new designed bio and/or alternative fuels and gas, in the given emission constraints. The IP NICE is constituted by four sub-projects: o Enlarged HCCI-Diesel / CAI-Otto combustion process under transient operation; o Compressed / Spark Ignited Variable Engine; based on Gasoline or Diesel engines combining the advantages to a new combustion system, with high EGR, Supercharged and adapted to bio-fuels; o Future Gas Internal Combustion engines with Diesel equivalent fuel consumption; o Improved CFD tools and modelling; having as main R&D objectives: o sensible increase of HCCI / CAI region in the engine map; o bio-fuels specifications addressed to the new combustion system; o the combination of different electronic control units (ECU) to define new advanced systems including ECU-algorithms, real-time models and software tools for automatic validation, #
