Knock Limits Compression Ratio
• Ways to mitigate knock– Higher octane fuel– Sophisticated control system– Reduced compression ratio

Theoretical VCR Benefit
• Engine Efficiency (Envera 2.2L VCR I4, a 3.6L turbo-DI V6, and a 5.7L V8 )
• Torque/Power Improved at below WOT levels

VCR that adjust the clearance volume by modifying the TDC
• Elastic component– Elastic components
compress at higher pressures thus reducing clearance volume and reducing compression ratio at higher loads

Conclusions
• VCR systems have the promise to increase:– engine efficiency/power/torque– operate with multiple cycles– adjust to accommodate knock limitations of
various fuels.• Multiple VCR systems each have their own
advantages and disadvantages with regard to:– effectiveness– complexity– ability to be integrated into current engines
