Compact diesel engine greatly reduces fuel consumption

General Motors has developed a 13-litre ordinary rail-turbo diesel engine with a maximum torque of 200 N•m and an output of 66 kW. The engine is the smallest of its kind in the world, with a length of 460 mm and a width and height of 500 mm and 650 mm respectively.

After installing the diesel engine, the fuel consumption of the Opel Astra car is only 4.8 liters per 100 km, while the maximum speed of the car can reach 172 km per hour, and the acceleration cycle is greatly shortened, and the speed increases from zero to 100 km per hour. It takes 13.7 seconds. This new engine has already been applied to the newly developed six-speed manual transmission.

Unlike other Opel models such as Corsa, Tigra, Combo and Agila, which have a maximum power of 51 kW, a capacity of 1.3 liters and a maximum torque of 170 Nm, this new diesel engine uses a turbine with a variable geometry. The supercharger allows a maximum torque of 200 N•m at 1750 rpm and 2500 rpm, and a maximum power of 66 kW at 4,000 rpm.

The oxidation catalyst close to the engine and the cooling exhaust gas circulation ensure that the vehicle's exhaust emissions meet the Euro 4 emission standards.

This four-valve engine with a size of 1.248 cubic centimeters has successfully helped General Motors establish a partnership with Fiat Auto with a boost ratio of 18:1. The high-pressure common rail fuel injection system operates under a standard atmospheric pressure condition, and the fuel can be injected five times per minute in the form of a fine mist.

The engine is made of a grey cast iron casing with excellent stability, with bore and stroke of 69.6 mm and 82 mm, respectively, which makes it possible to maintain smooth running characteristics. The base plate and cylinder head are machined from lightweight aluminum.

It is precisely because the engine has the advantages of small displacement and low fuel consumption, which greatly reduces the cost of driving the car from an economic point of view. In addition, its chain-operated valve trains also help the owner save on driving costs, with a technical maintenance cycle of up to two years or equivalent to a total vehicle journey of 50,000 kilometers.
