HINO'S NEW TURBOCHARGED DIESEL ENGINE FOR IMPROVED FUEL ECONOMY
The Hino EP100 engine was developed to accomplish the basic objective of improved fuel economy for cargo trucks. A direct injection, highly turbocharged diesel engine has a chassis-mounted charge air cooler. Higher rated power of 210 kw at 38.3 rps (285 ps at 2300 rpm) and maximum torque of 961 nm at 23.3 rps (98 kgm at 1400 rpm) are achieved with smaller displacement of 8.8 litres. These power outputs are virtually on a par with current 12-13 litre engines. A remarkably low bsfc of 201 g/kw (148 g/psh) for a vehicular diesel was also achieved. This paper describes the conceptual philosophies governing the basic design and application of several technologies contributing to the performance of this engine. (Author/TRRL)
