THURSDAY, APRIL 14 - AFTERNOON
Technical and Business Sessions
SESSION TITLE, DESCRIPTION, AND ROOM
415 B 410 A 412 A
Powertrain Actuators and Sensors (Part
2 of 2) (PFL560)
Topics cover actuator and sensor mechanisms,
devices, and systems; and the impact and control of
such actuation and sensing systems on Powertrain
thermodynamics, combustion, fuel economy,
emissions, and performance.
1:00 p.m. - 3:30 p.m.
SI Combustion Ignition (PFL215)
This session focuses on the SI combustion
ignition process and advanced ignition systems.
Papers cover both 4-stroke and 2-stroke engines
characterized by 1) ignition by an external energy
source that serves to control combustion phasing,
and 2) a combustion rate that is limited by flame
propagation.
1:00 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.
Technological Developments in China
(Part 2 of 2) (PFL180)
Technical presentation, review and investigation
focusing on China market, including powertrain
technology roadmap, regulation review, product
development and localization, off road applications,
new technology evaluation etc, covering both
conventional and alternative powertrain and other
vehicular component and system aspects.
1:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m.
