MAHLE Downsized Engine: 3D Animation

The 1.2-liter unit, a three-cylinder gasoline engine, can appropriately power a mid-class passenger car with a power output per liter of up to 120 kilowatts (163 hp). Compared to typical gasoline engines in this vehicle class, this is a downsizing by half—with up to 30 percent less fuel consumption.
The technology demonstrator uses cutting-edge technology: forged pistons, two overhead composite camshafts with double camshaft adjustment, four valves per cylinder, direct injection, air-water charge air cooling, cooled exhaust gas recirculation, and cooled lightweight valves. A further technical highlight is the completely integrated intake module, in which the air filter, charge air cooling, noise suppression, three individual throttle flaps, and introduction of exhaust gas recirculation are accommodated. To consistently minimize fuel consumption, frictional loss was also drastically reduced: with the use of innovative coatings on piston pins, piston rings, and cylinder running surfaces.

The last part is the oil cooler, isn't it?

[MAHLEZU]

Yes, via integrated aluminium oil cooler

[galactophore]

why doesn't the center cylinder have a it's own counter weights like the first and last cylinders do?

[97lakaiskater]

Music ?

@oiseautempete I didn't mean the engine, I know that's not for sale (unfortunately!). I was wondering who made the water/air charge air cooler, and if that's an off-the-shelf component.

wat engine is this 3cyl with twin turbo

[kmxrmotorsports]

wat engine is thie 3cyl with twin turbo

[Joeyblackblue1408]

looks like she good on gas not a gas slut

[Jiqsaw08]

Downsizing Engine sucks!!!

[oiseautempete]

@joffeloff

No, it's a demontrator, Mahle is a automotive engine parts maker for car industry (pistons,camshafts, filters, aluminium engine blocks,etc...Near all of the European cars use some Mahle or KS (Kolbensmidt) parts...

@Heinekenberg

The cameshaft is in 2 independant parts for variable timing

[Heinekenberg]

What exactly is meant by "composite camshafts"???

[newage4energy]

nice animation, Ford got a new one?

[quillian100]

cool

[becoming29]

Really like the design, but why aren't roller rockers incorporated into the engine?

[8NAYEEM]

its realy good animation

[joffeloff]

Who makes the turbocharger?

What about the water-cooled charge air cooler? Mahle? Is it available for purchase?

[StaticEngine]

Is that a turbocharger in there?  Who is using this engine in production?

[ovonijemojeime]

i have no idea what you guys are talking about, but nice vid+1

[andersenchong]

Great video upload, thanks

[kakarot1232001]

I wonder who will develop regeneration system for Direct injection first. Can not wait for that break through.

[bhaskartripathi]

Thanks Shaan for uploading this video.
