  1. İ.T.Ü. Experience in Marie Curie Actions Transfer of Knowledge Programme Prof.Dr. Cem Soruşbay Istanbul Technical University Automotive Engineering Division Avrupa Birliği Araştırma ve Geliştirme Programları KOBİ Konferansı, ISO, Odakule, İstanbul, 14th February 2008

  2. Contents Project objectives Participants Project elements ITU involvement in FUELUBE Project View of benefits

  3. Project Title CO2 Reduction through Automotive Biocomponent Enabling and Sustainable Step Changes in Fuels and Lubricants Performance MTKI-CT-2004-509777 SUSTAINABLE FUELUBE

  4. Project Objectives EU environmental policies on local air quality, climate change and sustainability are continually bringing changes to fuel and lubricant products via Fuel Directives This industry-academia interchange addresses key step changes necessary to realise EU targets by enabling the use of bio-components and by improving combustion and lubrication efficiency

  5. Project Objectives Long-term collaborative relationship is aimed between Shell Global Solutions, the coordinating host organisation and partner universities, which will link their collective combustion and lubrication scientific knowledge directly with Shell’s longstanding R&D capability in fuel and lubricant formulation

  6. Participants Shell Global Solutions (UK) Co-ordinator ITU – Istanbul Technical University (Turkey) CERT - Centre for Research and Technology (Greece) KTH - Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan (Sweden) UNIHD - Ruprecht-Karls-Universitaet Heidelberg (Germany) EUT - Eindhoven University of Technology (Netherlands) TCD – Trinity College Dublin (Ireland) LTU - Luleå University of Technology (Sweden) UC – University of Cambridge (England)

  7. Management Structure

  8. Project Elements 1. Development of renewable biofuel components Partner University: Thessaloniki (CERTH) Supervisor: Dr. Shoba Veeraraghavan (ShellGS-Chester) 2. Development of blending models to facilitate the global use of biofuels Partner University: Stockholm Supervisor: Dr. Nigel Tait (ShellGS-Chester) 3. Improved engine efficiency ‑ impact of deposits on HCCI combustion Partner University: Istanbul (ITU) Supervisor: Prof. Gautam Kalghatgi (ShellGS-Chester)

  9. Project Elements 4. Enabling cleaner and more efficient IC engine technology - chemical kinetics at catalyst surfaces Partner University: Heidelberg (UNIHD) Supervisor: Dr. Roger Cracknell (ShellGS-Chester) 5. Lubricant Oxidation Chemistry Partner University: Dublin (TCD) Supervisor: Prof. Dave Wedlock (ShellGS-Chester) 6. Novel Sensors for Monitoring Oil Condition Partner university: Eindhoven (EUT) Supervisor: Eduard Laukotka (ShellGS-Hamburg)

  10. Project Elements 7. Predicting Lubricant Performance for Improved Efficiency Partner University: Luleå (LTU) Supervisor: Dr .Ian Taylor (ShellGS-Chester)

  11. ITU Project Team University scientist in charge Prof.Dr. Cem Soruşbay Research Associate Dr. Hakan S. Soyhan Dr. Halit Yaşar

  12. ITU Involvement in FUELUBE Project Improved engine efficiency ‑ Impact of deposits on HCCI combustion Partner University: Istanbul (ITU) Supervisor: Prof. Gautam Kalghatgi (ShellGS-Chester) Experimental With removed combustion deposits,the engine will run in HCCI mode on three fuels – a PRF fuel, a toluene reference fuel and an unleaded gasoline (ULG) at : high pressure/low temperature and lowpressure/high temperature at 1200 rpm CCD will be built up by running the engine on ULG in spark-ignition mode at 2000 rpm, part load for 100 hours HCCI tests will be repeated for all three fuels after every twenty hours of deposit build up. Piston-top deposit thickness will be monitored through the central, spark-plug hole during the tests

  13. ITU Involvement in FUELUBE Project Improved engine efficiency ‑ Impact of deposits on HCCI combustion Theoretical / modelling A simple autoignition model (Livengood-Wu integral) used in an existing engine model to predict HCCI combustion Ignition delay, is defined as a function of pressure and temperature empirically. Agreement with experimental observations for the unleaded gasoline is checked Engine model to account for the thermal effects of CCD on bulk gas temperature is developed

  14. ITU Involvement in FUELUBE Project • Interchange of academicians between industry and academia to establish synergy • Organisation of workshops within partner institutions • Organisation of seminars by Shell GS at partner universities • Support of post-graduate projects by the industry • Establishment of productive long-term collaboration

  15. View of Benefits Industry side • Development of R&D capabilities • Transfer of knowledge between institutions • Obtaining competitive advantage Academia side • Adding industrial experience to academic R&D studies • Transfer of knowledge between institutions • Network formation • Enabling establishment of new technical synergies
