With the rapid development of the automotive industry, hybrid technology is playing a vital role in driving the electrification of vehicles. In hybrid systems, the internal combustion engine plays a central role, and its performance has a direct impact on the performance and user experience of the entire system. In this area, several key factors highlight the importance of the internal combustion engine.
Productivity is at the heart of the internal combustion engine. A thermally efficient internal combustion engine not only provides higher power generation efficiency, but also achieves excellent performance with direct drive, resulting in a better driving experience and lower fuel consumption. Thermal efficiency is often misunderstood, and maximum thermal efficiency is not the only measure of the performance of an internal combustion engine. The key is the overall thermal efficiency in everyday work, which is a better reflection of the performance of the combustion engine in real driving situations.
Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) is another important consideration in the design of an internal combustion engine. During the driving of the car, good NVH performance is directly related to the driver's comfort and overall experience. Therefore, a good internal combustion engine should perform better in terms of noise, vibration and harshness, resulting in a more pleasant driving experience for the user. The company's efforts to improve NVH performance are the inevitable path for the continuous improvement and upgrading of automotive technology.
In the era of electrification, the internal combustion engine has an irreplaceable position. Despite the emergence of electric vehicles in the market, the internal combustion engine still plays a key role in the hybrid system. In the era of electrification, the internal combustion engine will not be completely eliminated, but the strategy of batteries and electric motors to assist the internal combustion engine to make better use of their respective advantages. The internal combustion engine is primarily responsible for high-speed operation requirements, while the electric motor functions when low-speed torque requirements are high. The two complement each other and work together to make the hybrid system more efficient.
The DAM12TD engine used in the Ideal ONE had a series of problems, including poor technical standards, poor NVH performance, and quality control issues. This case highlights the critical impact of internal combustion engine quality and performance on the entire hybrid system. The experience of Ideal ONE shows that in order to ensure the smooth operation of hybrid systems, internal combustion engines must undergo strict technical standards and quality control.
The overall performance of a hybrid system depends on the combustion engine and the electric motor working together. A good hybrid system requires not only an efficient electric motor, but also an internal combustion engine with higher overall thermal efficiency and better NVH. Only when the two work together can the system strike a balance between low fuel consumption, high performance and excellent durability. Therefore, in the development of hybrid technology, the technical level of the internal combustion engine also needs to be continuously improved to meet the demand for the performance of the entire system.
The evolution of hybrid technology is inseparable from the continuous innovation and improvement of the internal combustion engine. As the core component of the hybrid system, the internal combustion engine is related to the performance of the whole system in terms of work efficiency, NVH performance and cooperation with the electric motor. In the future, with the continuous advancement of technology, the internal combustion engine will continue to play an important role in the automotive field, pushing hybrid technology to new heights.
