The new engine family is a significant move for both partners in fulfilling the self-commitment assumed by European car makers within their European Association (ACEA), promising to reduce fleet consumption and, as a result, CO 2
emissions to 140 g/km by the year 2008. The engines developed within the Project are able for the first time to elegantly solve the conflict of interests between demanding engine technologies and cost pressure in the small and compact car segment. The Project confirms that it is by all means economically possible to build fuel-efficient power units with innovative technologies also in the lower car segments.
Peugeot Citroen Noise and Vibration Optimisation of a Gasoline Engine
The vibratory and acoustic behaviour of the internal combustion engine is a highly complex one, consisting of many components that are subject to loads that vary greatly in magnitude and which operate at a wide range of speeds. The TU5JP engine is currently used for a number of vehicle platforms produced by PSA, including the successful “Super mini” class car, the Citroen Saxo. The block, head and transmission were constructed of predominantly low-order hexahedral elements, whilst the ancillaries were modelled using a combination of high order tetrahedral, shell and beam elements wherever appropriate.
