Summary:

The downsizing of internal combustion engines (ICE) is alreadyrecognized as a very suitable method for the concurrent enhancementof indicated fuel conversion efficiency (IFCE) and the lowering ofCO₂ and NOx emissions.In this report, ultra-downsizing is introduced as an even higherstage of development of ICE. Ultra-downsizing will be implementedhere by means of real Atkinson cycles using asymmetrical crankmechanisms, combined with multi-stage high-pressure turbochargingand very intensive intercooling. This will allow an increase of ICEperformance while keeping the thermal and mechanical strainstrength of engine components within the current usual limits
