Delphi-Tula Dynamic Skip Fire Cylinder Deactivation System - 1

POWERTRAIN SYSTEMS Delphi-Tula Dynamic Skip Fire Cylinder Deactivation System The Delphi-Tula Dynamic Skip Fire (DSF) Cylinder Deactivation System is an industry-leading, fully variable engine displacement technology. It combines Delphi cylinder deactivation hardware with an engine control strategy that fires each cylinder only as necessary during each engine revolution, depending on engine torque demand. Fundamental control algorithms are provided by Tula Technology, Inc. The Delphi-Tula DSF System significantly improves engine efficiency and reduces fuel consumption by firing fewer cylinders at lower torque loads to reduce pumping and heat losses. It also reduces noise, vibration and harshness by dynamically choosing firing sequences that avoid vehicle and driver resonance frequencies. Benefits   Independent control of each cylinder enables broader and Components of the Delphi-Tula Dynamic Skip smoother torque management capability, and provides full  Fire Cylinder Deactivation System control of cylinder firing while maintaining optimal emissions 10% to 20% fuel economy improvement compared with conventional spark ignition engines depending on the engine and driving conditions (based on advanced development testing), and the potential to reduce CO 2 emissions by up to 20% Torque pulse optimization algorithms can prevent adverse vehicle resonances and objectionable pulse frequencies  Broad applicability across a range of engine sizes and types  Compatible with 3-way catalysts for gasoline engines  Fast response allows full cylinder deactivation in a single cam revolution at speeds up to 3500 rpm  Availability The Dynamic Skip Fire Cylinder Deactivation System for 8-cylinder engine applications is available for concept demonstration to qualified vehicle manufacturers. A 4-cylinder turbo demonstration vehicle will be available for evaluation in 2016. Please contact Delphi for more information. Typical Applications The Delphi-Tula Dynamic Skip Fire Cylinder Deactivation System applies broadly to engine programs in which improved fuel economy and reduced CO2
