San Carlos, CA (PRWEB) April 23, 2012

Pinnacle Engines SAE (Booth # 430), a developer of ultra-efficient engines, automotive professionals will face the SAE 2012 World Congress & Exhibition, held April 24 – 26 , at Cobo Center in Detroit, Michigan. Pinnacle shares results of a detailed technical document as it was designed, built and tested a single opposed piston, with the aim of improving real-world mileage of the vehicle, thus avoiding additional costs. In the basic configuration, with a light load for the improvements of the efficiency of the engine of 15-30% was achieved compared to conventional reed valves per cylinder.

were happy to have a viable and accessible to a few kilometers of motor vehicles to improve significantly without a cost disadvantage, said Monty Cleeves, founder, president and CTO, Pinnacle Engines. The clean burning permits this project, our engines meet rising global emissions standards, while maintaining the accessibility of the vehicle for developing countries. We are pleased to present our first engines on the market in 2013 through a partnership with a major Asian OEM.

Pinnacle innovative actions on the spark, twin crank, 250cc single cylinder has been developed with the architecture of the piston opposite, twin-cam driven piston sleeve compressors for the intake valves and exhaust in a traditional four-stroke mode. The presentation is important if the most efficient vehicle data without increasing costs for producers and consumers.

The main results are as follows:

? Low surface to volume ratio and cold walls, reducing heat loss and improve antiknock rating for improved efficiency of the cycle indicated gross
? At high loads, the counter-piston engine Pinnacle makes use of the cycle Cleeves, which is the result of extremely delayed timing and makes it possible excessive compression that is not sacrificing BMEP levels relative to the engine of comparison. Even if the efficiency is reduced from the peak value, the enabled high geometric CR and allows expansion rapid combustion sufficiently effective similar to full-load torque, and the efficiency of maintaining EGTC
? A high compression ratio, the turbulence only, and the layout candle stabilizes the combustion and extends the limits of explosion
? Extensive operation of fresh air reduces lean PMEP light load, KLIMEP increases and reduces emissions of nitrogen oxide in the carburetor two-way catalyst markets. Improved stability of lean combustion should be applied for the EGR operation and offer similar advantages, while maintaining close to stoichiometric operation of the three-way catalyst
? The results of operation methane show the possibility of further improve the efficiency and flex-fuel operation in low complexity (fixed CR) of configuration, without compromising BMEP

engine Pinnacle

Pinnacle Motors is a company based in Silicon Valley based technology to address the immediate need for an internal combustion engine more efficient to deal with. The founders pioneered the patented Pinnacle Engines architecture and its cycle Cleeves, an ultra-efficient design of the combustion engine that uses traditional production techniques. Pinnacles new engine design focuses on the growing need for the internal combustion engine (ICE) effectively, and will have a significant impact on overall fuel consumption and CO2 emissions from transport.
