Excerpt

Natural gas engines for commercial vehicles are getting increasingly more attractive due to low fuel price and advantages in view of greenhouse gas emissions. However, low-end torque, specific power and efficiency of new engine developments will be rated against diesel engine performance. Applying the right mix of technology AVL shows that diesel-like specific power and efficiency can be realised with stoichiometric gas engine concepts. …
