Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

An air hybrid vehicle is an alternative to the electric hybrid vehicle that stores the kinetic
\nenergy of the vehicle during braking in the form of pressurized air. In this thesis, a novel
\ncompression strategy for an air hybrid engine is developed that increases the efficiency of
\nconventional air hybrid engines significantly. The new air hybrid engine utilizes a new
\ncompression process in which two air tanks are used to increase the air pressure during the
\nengine compressor mode. To develop the new engine, its mathematical model is derived and
\nvalidated using GT-Power software. An experimental setup has also been designed to test the
\nperformance of the proposed system. The experimental results show the superiority of the
\nnew configuration over conventional single-tank system in storing energy.
\nIn addition, a new switchable cam-based valvetrain and cylinder head is proposed to
\neliminate the need for a fully flexible valve system in air hybrid engines. The cam-based
\nvalvetrain can be used both for the conventional and the proposed double-tank air hybrid
\nengines. To control the engine braking torque using this valvetrain, the same throttle that
\ncontrols the traction torque is used. Model-based and model-free control methods are adopted
\nto develop a controller for the engine braking torque. The new throttle-based air hybrid
\nengine torque control is modeled and validated by simulation and experiments. The fuel
\neconomy obtained in a drive cycle by a double-tank air hybrid vehicle is evaluated and
\ncompared to that of a single-tank air hybrid vehicle.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
