FPT Energy-saving New Technology MultiAir?

On June 17, FPT Fiat Power Technology created the latest wisdom of "Core" technology - MultiAir® electro-hydraulic flexible variable valve control system was officially applied to the Fire 1.4 engine (power output 105 to 170 HP), and in Italy The Termoli plant went into production. In September of next year, with the launch of the Alfa Romeo Mi.To model, this milestone in the FPT innovation was hailed as another breakthrough after the high-pressure common rail technology will complete industrialization and become a new energy source for automotive powertrains. The model of new technology application. The MultiAir® engine, which combines high efficiency, environmental protection, energy saving, and flexibility, will be applied to all models of the Fiat Group in the next few years, enabling the Fiat Group to become the world's lowest carbon dioxide emission standard before 2012. Car maker.

Under the background of the increasingly severe energy crisis and atmospheric pollution, major automakers and powertrain manufacturers in the world are looking for new energy vehicle solutions. They all hope that through technological innovation, they can improve the traditional engine that has become the main contradiction today. The challenges of energy saving, emission reduction, light weight, and high efficiency. The MultiAir® electro-hydraulic flexible variable valve control system, first announced by FPT Fiat Power Technology at the 79th Geneva International Motor Show in March this year, has broken through the way in which the traditional mechanical camshaft and throttle valve control the engine intake air. MultiAir® uses an electrohydraulic valve to drive the intake air control mode, which provides more flexibility than the mechanical timing system. It can more accurately control the intake and injection of the engine and optimize the combustion efficiency so as to achieve high efficiency - to increase the power of the engine by 10%. Output, improve 15% of low-speed torque output; environmental protection - reduce 10% of carbon dioxide emissions, 40% of carbon monoxide emissions and 60% of nitrogen oxide emissions in automobile exhaust emissions; energy saving - can reduce fuel consumption by 10% and Savings of 25% in fuel costs for small turbine engines, etc.; and the use of MultiAir® electro-hydraulic flexible variable valve control system technology to enhance the driving pleasure of the car, while significantly reducing the harmful substances in the vehicle exhaust Emissions and reduce the vehicle's fuel use costs. At the same time, MultiAir® electro-hydraulic flexible variable valve control system technology is also highly flexible. Compared to a conventional four-cylinder engine of the same power, a two-cylinder engine using MultiAir® technology is reduced in weight by 20%. , And can save 25% of the installation space for the engine compartment; and this innovative technology, which is fully applicable to gasoline engines, can be applied to diesel engines in the near future.

After the release of “Core” technology MultiAir® electro-hydraulic flexible variable valve control system, it triggered a strong reaction in the global powertrain field. Overseas technical media generally believe that this is an epoch-making powertrain technology innovation technology. It will have a strong market appeal; and the official launch of the application of the MultiAir® electro-hydraulic flexible variable valve control system will further boost this demand. At present, the Termoli plant in Italy, which produces the MultiAir® Fire 1.4 engine, has an annual production capacity of approximately 1 million engines and 650,000 transmissions; it also has an 8-valve, 16-valve Fire engine, and 1.4 T-Jet. Fire engine and a diverse product line including the C510, C513 and C546 transmissions. Strong capacity scale, flexible and diversified production capacity, mature manufacturing processes and world-class quality standards will effectively guarantee the application of MultiAir® technology engine series products to quickly meet the rapidly increasing demand of the global market; and further improve the MultiAir® technology. FPT's application and promotion of important strategic markets including China provides manufacturing engineering experience.

"Creating the 'core' to promote the green future", FPT has always been committed to the development, application and promotion of advanced technologies in energy conservation and emission reduction and green environmental protection. Based on the importance of FPT to the Chinese market and the steady development of FPT in China, the domestic industry and academia also focus on FPT's leading green technology trends. In the just-concluded FPT Fiat Technology Cup's top ten engine selection campus activities, MultiAir ® Electro-hydraulic flexible variable valve control system technology has become one of the hottest topics between the teachers and students of the automotive and related technology majors from Tsinghua University, Jiaotong University, Tianjin University and Tongji University.
