Increased Internal Combustion Engine Efficiency with Optimized Valve Timings in Extended Stroke Operation

Spark-ignited internal combustion engines are known to exhibit a decreased brake efficiency in part-load operation. Similarly to cylinder deactivation, the x-stroke operation presented in this paper is an adjustable form of skip-cycle operation. It is an effective measure to increase the efficiency...
