Performance Characteristics of a Variable Displacement Engine at Part-Load and Idle

부분부하와 무부하에서의 가변 배기량기관의 성능특성

This paper presents an effective way of improving fuel consumption for a variable displacement engine. The improvement of fuel consumption can be accomplished by means of deactivating inlet and exhaust valves, reducing the number of effective cylinders of a four-cylinder gasoline engine that is mounted on a domestic compact automobile.
