Challenges in Light & Medium Engine Development
As a research and development service provider for combustion engines, FVTR has specialized in particular in the field of alternative fuels and agricultural machines. During several projects we have built up a deep understanding of the several interactions between fuels and lubricants as well as fuels and exhaust aftertreatment components. Altogether, five test benches in the light and medium engine scale are currently available for your project ideas.
Light and Medium Engine Testing
In our opinion, the high efficient combustion engine is an elementary key element on the way to an energy re-volution in the mobile transport sector.
To reach the CO2 reduction goals of the EU and the Paris climate agreement even further development ef-forts will be needed.
Looking to the long-term future of traditional engines, we think that renewable and climate neutral fuels will still be burned in internal combustion engines, because of their benefits in energy density, infrastructure, avai-lability and the efficiency of the engines itself.
Against this challenging and fascinating background, we would be pleased to accompany you in your devlop-ment projects.
Test Beds and Equipment
• Test bed dynos by Schneider/Elin up to 220 kW• Test bench automation by AVL Puma• Fuel Conditioning and Measurement by AVL solutions• INCA tool boxes for application work• AVL ISAC 400 driving simulator for automatic and en-
durance testing• State of the art indication systems by AVL/Kistler• Tailor made and open Engine Control Unit architec-
ture for single cylinder research engines
In addition to conventional liquid fuels, our fuel infra-structure also offers the possibility of using bio-fuels of various qualities and special fuels at the engines:
• Gasoline according to DIN EN228 and gasoline blends• Diesel according to DIN EN590 and diesel blends• Bio Diesel: B30, B100, FAME• Special fuels: methanol, ethanol, HVO, OME, DME• Natural gas at different pressure levels: 20, 250, 600 bar• Gas mixing facility: addition of CO2 and C3H8 to the
natural gas

Our Development Services
Through the cooperation with other working groups in the company, engine issues can be dealt with holis-tically:
• Investigation of injection and mixture formation pro-cesses at own and specialized injection test benches
• Analysis of customer samples in the fuels and lubri-cants laboratory
• Simulation of the combustion process by our own ex-perienced and well-equipped CFD-team
For the investigation of emission-relevant components or operating strategies, modern exhaust gas analyzing systems are available:
• Certification-relevant measuring systems (FID and CLD)for NOx, CO2, HCs
• FTIRs for the measurement of up to 24 special gases like N2O, NH3 and SO2
• Determination of FSN with smokemeter• Mobile particle measuring station: particle concent-
ration, number and size
