AIM: to investigate techniques for improving engine efficiency through
reduced friction including optimum lubrication and adaptive/smart components.
Objectives:
- Identification of tribological measures having the highest potential to
improve the engine efficiency
- Identification of the need for adaptive components of the engine and
development of relevant specifications
- Development of engine components with reduced friction losses
- Development of adaptive components
- Demonstration of functionality and reliability by means of engine tests
- On line control of cylinder condition by optimum cylinder lubrication
