Transonic Combustion Technology - TSCiTM Fuel Injection
|
Utilizing supercritical fuel injection to achieve injection-ignition, the TSCiTM combustion system achieves high thermal and combustion efficiency when operating with high compression ratio gasoline engines.

The Fundamental Problem
The spark ignited (SI) gasoline engine is limited in performance and fuel efficiency by three fundamental factors: 1) throttling which results in pumping losses as well as reduced cycle pressures and temperatures; 2) inherently slow heat release curve as a result of a long delay period and a modest burn rate; resulting in increased heat losses and low cycle efficiency; 3) compression ratio limited by fuel quality.

Benefits of TSCiTM Technology
The characteristics of TSCiTM address all of the issues identified as limiting the efficiency of the gasoline engine; it is capable of operating over a wide range of air/fuel ratios and so does not require a throttle for load control. TSCiTM has inherently short combustion delay and a fast combustion that combine in heat release phasing for optimal efficiency. TSCiTM can be operated at an optimal compression ratio since it is not dependent on high octane gasoline.
