20100037861 | Method for Reducing Pollutant Emissions and Consumption of an Engine - A generally accepted and appropriate means to reduce pollutant emissions and consumption of passenger cars diesel engines is to apply multiple injection strategies. Assuming constant cylinder and bowl geometry and constant rail pressure the variation of the number of injections, injection quantity of each injection and separation between two consecutive injections are the major parameters which have to be optimised in order to fulfill both, the legislative emission limits and consumer requirements. A second, distinct approach to decrease pollutant emissions is to apply a single injection with a shaped injection rate. Ideally, rate shaping is achieved by a rise in injection pressure during one injection event, equal to that observed in cam controlled injection systems (e.g. Unit Injectors). For piezo driven common rail injection systems it might be possible to achieve similar effects by modifying the needle lift during an injection. The object of the present investigation is to compare and evaluate both methods in terms of pollutant emission, fuel consumption and robustness. For this purpose, experiments were carried out on single cylinder research engines. Multiple injection strategies with large hydraulic dwell times were compared with a short dwell setting simulating a “rate shaped” single injection. Rate shaping was implemented with a serial SIEMENS VDO piezo injector, performing multiple injections with hydraulic dwell times close to or equal zero. | 02-18-2010 |

20110218289 | MIXTURE COMPOSITION CONTAINING COPOLYMERS BASED ON UNSATURATED CARBOXYLIC ACID AND ALKENYL ETHER DERIVATIVES AND COPOLYMERS AND TERPOLYMERS CONTAINING SULFO GROUPS AND USE THEREOF - The invention relates to a mixture composition having dispersing properties, containing copolymers based on unsaturated mono or dicarboxylic acid derivatives and oxyalkylene ethers as component I and water-soluble copolymers and terpolymers containing sulfo groups having an average molecular weight of 50 000-20 000 000 g/mol as component II. By combining both components, which can be respectively characterized by four different structural units, it is possible to obtain mixture compositions which can, more particularly, be used as dispersing agents for organic and/or inorganic pigments and fillers, in addition to known applications in the field of structural chemistry. In the field of structural chemistry, the mixture compositions are suitable for use on account of the dispersing properties thereof, particularly in ceramic systems and in water-based painting and coating systems. Independently of the dispersing effect thereof, the described mixture compositions are also excellent solvents, wherein they can be used more particularly as casein substitutes, even in self-leveling gap-filling materials and troweling compounds by virtue of the stabilizing effect thereof. The inventive mixture composition combines known positive properties of components I and II and can be used in new fields of application, even in the non-structural chemistry field. | 09-08-2011 |
