Preventing engine damage caused by LSPI
The increasingly stringent emission regulations and fuel-economy demands have forced engine manufacturers to downsize engines while improving their power and torque. The downside of today’s smaller engines with higher power density is their risk to abnormal disruptive combustion, such as knocking and a new phenomenon called low speed pre-ignition (LSPI).
How after treatment devices help to meet emissions standards
Emission regulations are an hot item for the automotive industry. To meet the latest Euro VI regulations, truck manufacturers integrate an after treatment device (ATD) in the engine to limit the exhaust of undesired pollutants.
