SBIR Phase I: Chris Cross Cylinder Head Validation

这个小型企业创新研究(SBIR)第一阶段项目的更广泛的影响/商业潜力在于减少任何采用这种气缸盖设计的摩托车的排放和节省燃料，也可能是任何采用这种气缸盖设计的内燃机。今天，世界上绝大多数内燃机驱动的车队都是在不需要任何排放改善装置的情况下运行的，例如催化转化器或燃油喷射。这项拟议的技术减少了排放，增加了燃油里程，而不需要任何排放改善设备。拟议的气缸盖设计还可以提高发动机的性能，作为一个额外的好处。这个项目有可能逐步产生地方、国家甚至全球的影响。这个项目的智力优势在于以一种全新的方式思考燃料在内燃机内的燃烧。此外，在空气流动和气缸盖的燃烧过程方面也有新的想法。该项目是一种新设计的分体式燃烧室气缸盖，其中更多的燃料在燃烧室内燃烧，导致排放气体的排放量显著降低，即碳氢化合物、一氧化碳、氮氧化物和二氧化碳温室气体。本研究的目的是在一辆安装了新设计的气缸盖的500cc摩托车上验证这些结果。这辆摩托车将被送往排放实验室进行排放测试和油耗测试。它将在安装了催化转化器的情况下进行测试，并再次在不安装催化转化器的情况下进行测试，以显示使用排放改善设备的结果以及其独立优点的结果。

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is in terms of the reduction of emissions and the fuel savings on any motorcycle with this cylinder head design, and possibly also any internal combustion engine with this cylinder head design. A vast majority of the world's internal combustion engine-driven fleet today are operated without requiring any emission-improving devices such as catalytic converters or fuel injection. The proposed technology reduces emissions and increases gas mileage without requiring any emission-improving equipment. The proposed cylinder head design could also increase the engine performance as an added benefit. This project has the potential for producing progressively local, national, and even global impact.The intellectual merit of this project is in the whole new way of thinking about how fuel burns inside the internal combustion engine. Additionally, there are new ideas about the flow of air and the combustion process of the cylinder head. This project is a newly designed, divided combustion chamber cylinder head, in which more of the fuel is burned inside the chamber, resulting in significantly lower output of emissions gases; namely hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and carbon dioxide greenhouse gases. The objective of this research is to prove these results on a 500cc motorcycle with the newly designed cylinder head installed. The motorcycle will be taken to an emissions lab to be tested for emissions as well as for gas mileage. It will be tested with catalytic converters installed, and again without catalytic converters, to show results using emission-improving devices as well as results of its stand-alone merit.
