CORE Concept2010 CLC Most Innovative Technical Solution Winner |
|
|
 |
|
Core has been experimentally and computationally validated to increase engine efficiency 77% higher than conventional gasoline engines and 20% higher than conventional diesel engines, as shown in Figure 3. |
 |
|
If fully implemented, using a CORE engine fueled by biofuels combined with a hybrid powertrain can lower GHG emissions by up to 60% as compared to a conventional gasoline engine (see Figure 8). |
 |
|
By fully implementing the CORE system (otherwise known as RCCI, or Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition) it is possible to decrease GHG emissions in the US by 4 billion lbs/yr. This correlates to saving 4.7 MBOD of oil from being imported (nearly the amount imported from Saudi Arabia) to the US, saving nearly 142 billion dollars a day. |

Team Members/Contact Information Press Coverage |
Core is a new combustion strategy for internal combustion engines designed to increase engine efficiency while simultaneously lowering health impacting pollutants. Core utilizes a patent pending process to inject fuels (either bio-derived or petroleum based) of different reactivity into the engine, to create a high efficiency low-temperature combustion event, as seen in Figure 2.
