Compressed Air as Fuel?
45 MJ/100km
η2= 44%
η1= 90%
η4= 80%
Ptank=300 bar
Ttank= 300 K
η3= 81%
ηtot  0.25
Necessary energy in air tank 70 MJ, which corresponds to
320 kg air mass and 200 kg tank mass (kevlar composite) and
925 l tank volume.
Compare that to BEV: plug-to-wheel efficiency of ηtot= 0.75 and
150 kg battery mass (Li-ion batteries with 100 Wh/kg useful
energy density).

Pneumatic Hybrid Powertrains?
 Internal combustion
engine as range
extender: too many
components and
poor fuel economy
 Hybrid pneumatic engine:
 1 main energy supply
 1 energy buffer
 1 energy conversion device

Directly vs. Indirectly Connected Air Tank
Indirectly Connected Air Tank:
+ Only limited changes in valve
actuation system needed
+ No major cylinder head changes
− Mode changes difficult/restricted
− Reduced actual pumping
compression ratio
Directly Connected Air Tank
− Add charge valve actuation to
system
− Cylinder head redesign
+ Mode changes easy
+ Pumping compression ratio not
compromised

The Hybrid Pneumatic Engine (HPE) Idea
 Previous work by
Herrera (1998),
Schechter (1999),
and Higelin (2001)
 Air tank as energy
buffer
 Recuperation and
pneumatic driving
 Pneumatic modes
are 2-stroke based,
all valves variable
10
Comparison Valve Actuation Modes
IV – Intake Valve
EV – Exhaust Valve
CV – Charge Valve
– ETH Modes
 2-stroke modes require variable actuation for all valves
 4-stroke concept is cheaper and less complex

Remark: Recuperation using Alternator
 Recuperation: pumping is limited by four-stroke mode
 In the MVEG-95 ~500 kJ cannot be recuperated by
pumping air in braking phases
 Excess energy can be used for:
 EHVS actuation: 104 kJ needed to drive MVEG-95 (assuming 60%
efficiency for the alternator & 60% efficiency for an electric hydraulic
pump)
 Electric auxiliaries need 300 W at the crankshaft for 1200 s, i.e.,
360 kJ are needed for the drive cycle
 Fuel consumption can be further reduced

Pneumatic Modes Control
Pneumatic Pump Mode:
 Feedforward only
 Braking torque is limited a
priori if too high
Pneumatic Motor Mode:
 Throttle feedforward only
 Feedback uses as ΔMV2O
as control signal
49
Supervisory Control – Dynamic
Programming
 3 states:
 2 inputs:
tank pressure, old engine mode, and old gear
engine mode, gear switching
 allows engine start & gear switching penalty
 For the MVEG-95, gears are pre-defined, so 2 states and 1 input
results.
