Emission from Internal Combustion Engines and Battery Electric Vehicles: Case Study for Poland

Intelligent Usage of Internal Combustion Engines in Hybrid Electric Vehicles

Particulate Emission from Internal Combustion Engines

In this work, number concentration and size distribution at the exhaust of a Port Fuel Injection (PFI) Spark Ignition (SI) engine downstream a three-way catalyst and a Direct Injection Common Rail Diesel engine have been measured with two particle size instruments. The gas exhaust is first diluted, a nano DMA is used to obtain the particles size distribution function in the 3-60 nm range, in pa...

Transport energy consumption in mountainous roads. A comparative case study for internal combustion engines and electric vehicles in Andorra

This paper analyses transport energy consumption of conventional and electric vehicles in mountainous roads. A standard round trip in Andorra has been modelled in order to characterise vehicle dynamics in hilly regions. Two conventional diesel vehicles and their electric-equivalent models have been simulated and their performances have been compared. Six scenarios have been simulated to study t...

Comparison between Battery Electric Vehicles and Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles fueled by Electrofuels

Increasing the share of renewable energy used in the transport sector is seen as an important step to globally reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Battery electric vehicles have for a long time been seen as a solution if the electricity is produced by renewable sources, but still suffers from high battery costs and short range issues. As a way to overcome these issues and at the same time keep cur...
