A single cylinder engine study of lean supercharged operation for spark ignition engines

Author

Kenneth Robert Schmid

Abstract

"A comprehensive single cylinder engine test program to evaluate Lean Supercharged Operation (LSO) for spark ignition engines was conducted. The evaluation involved an experimental program studying the power, emissions, and efficiency of a single cylinder engine. The relationships between engine power, efficiency, and emissions and the engine operating variables such as absolute intake manifold pressure, Exhaust Gas Recirculation rates, and spark timing were studied"--Abstract, page ii.
