Abstract: A vehicle propulsion system includes a controller configured to generate a control signal that dictates operation of a propulsion system of a vehicle having an engine and an electrically driven superturbocharger or a turbo-compounding turbine. Responsive to determining that the vehicle is one or more of entering into or traveling within an airflow restricting area, the controller is configured to change the operation of the propulsion system of the vehicle by reducing a power output by the engine. The controller is configured to reduce the power output by the engine to increase a power output of the electrically driven superturbocharger or the turbo-compounding turbine to propel the vehicle through the airflow restricting area.

Abstract: A four-cycle internal combustion engine has a single or multi-stage pre-cooled compression, which allows the temperature and pressure of intake air to the combustion cylinders to be tightly controlled, so that a much higher compression ratio and pre-ignition compression pressure can be achieved without approaching the air/fuel mixture auto-ignition threshold. The minimal threshold pressure of air intake is determined to be >1.8 Bars at sea level and a minimal temperature drop of at least 50° C. at the heat exchanger air cooling radiator. Because this design can effectively regulate and set the maximum pre-ignition temperature of the fuel-air mixture, it can combust virtually any type of liquid hydrocarbon fuel without knocking. This four-cycle engine, due to its higher compression ratio, generates power equivalent to or greater than a standard four-cycle engine in a smaller and lighter engine and at a higher efficiency.

Abstract translation: 四循环内燃机具有单级或多级预冷压缩，这允许对燃烧气缸的进气的温度和压力进行严格控制，使得高得多的压缩比和预点火压缩压力 可以在不接近空气/燃料混合物自动点火阈值的情况下实现。 在热交换器空气冷却散热器处，空气入口的最小临界压力被确定为海平面以上> 1.8Bars和至少50℃的最小温度降。 因为这种设计可以有效地调节和设定燃油混合物的最高预燃温度，所以它几乎可以燃烧任何类型的液体碳氢化合物燃料，而不会发生爆震。 这种四冲程发动机由于其较高的压缩比，在更小且更轻的发动机中以更高的效率产生等于或大于标准四冲程发动机的功率。
