Excerpt
Friction in the engine can never be completely avoided, but there is still potential for reduction, which is reflected in higher efficiency and lower emissions. In an interview with MTZ, Dr. Andreas Pfeifer, Head of Product Development Engine Systems and Engine Components at Mahle, emphasizes the relevance of cross-system thinking in terms of reducing internal engine friction.
Dipl.-Ing. Dr. techn. Andreas Pfeifer (born 1970), studied for a degree in mechanical engineering at the Technical University of Vienna, he began his career as a research and development engineer for the diesel combustion process and injection systems at Institut für Motorenbau Prof. Huber GmbH in Munich (Germany). He joined Deutz AG in Cologne (Germany) in 1998, where he worked as a team leader for combustion development in the advance engineering department. After completing his doctorate in 2000, Pfeifer moved first to FEV Motorentechnik GmbH in Aachen (Germany) where he was Head of the diesel and special processes department and then to VDO Automotive AG in Regensburg (Germany) where he headed the system design and combustion engineering department. In 2009, he took on responsibility for the development of diesel engines at Liebherr Machines Bulle in Switzerland. Since 2015, Pfeifer has been Head of Product Development for engine systems and components at Mahle GmbH in Stuttgart (Germany).
