    Toyota's "Dynamic Force Engine" is designed with torque, power, and efficiency in mind. The whole idea of the engine centers on improving the speed of combustion. If combustion is faster, the engine makes more torque, and it does so more efficiently. So how did they do this?
    Well there are numerous features of the engine which encourage quick combustion. It starts with a compression ratio of 13:1 for conventional engines, or 14:1 for their engine paired with hybrid vehicles. They've increased the stroke/bore ratio, increased the angle between the intake and exhaust valves, straightened the intake path, and incorporated laser clad valve seats. All this results in combustion that you can watch side-by-side occurring significantly faster versus the previous engine.

H2O ( THE HYDROGEN HELPS COMBUSTION most of these tests are down in low altitude coastal area ( 60 % of world pop are coastal other 20% on major rivers ) which have higher humidy levels ( this is same as adding electolizer for making hydrogen) injection of water at exhuast driven turbo crates steam but worked in the simi too in the fuel(yes i have been told i am crazy lol) it worked ( no condesation water in the fuel filteration system) Note had condesation before using the fuel conditioner others repaced injectors on their engines i drove for 2yrs no injector/engine troubles ( also ised canola oil as fuel conditioner lubrication ) Note: Canaloa is derived from Canada Oil formerly called rapeseed oil used for lubes on steam engines no i dont cook with Canola i know the history as SK farmer/ seed grower hybreds now sprayed with chemical killing everything grren but not the Canola crop Wow ph 1 403 830 4123 C u

    I am totally amazed at my 2.5 Dynamic Force engine in my 2020 Camry LE (8,350 total miles) I recently took a 445 mile trip that put my car through just about all the scenarios a car could face including, freeway, hills, mountains, long gradual inclines, long gradual declines, 78 miles of winding uphill, downhill, sharp turns, not so sharp turns, manually downshifting, manually upshifting, and driving around a small coastal California town of Fort Bragg for two days. After I came back home I filled up the tank to check for the first time my gas milage turned out to be...an amazing "35.8 miles per gallon." I had to redo the numbers on my calculator to double check...445 miles divided by 12.4 gallons of gas. I am totally amazed! And all these miles were not "easy interstate miles"...only about 125, or so. My car performed better than I anticipated and this engine...totally amazed me! The car is rated for 39 MPG (freeway) on the window sticker. It looks like it would do even better! Totally amazing!

    Efficiency versus SkyActiv-X? Many have asked. I reached out to Mazda, and here's their response: "We don’t expect it to be much beyond the best in the industry at the moment (a Prius is 42%, for instance), but that’s just the peak. The benefit of SPCCI is that where the Prius has a minimum efficiency of 2% under WOT, SKY-X will be way higher when you’re flogging it. So no real numbers yet, but the floor should be way higher, and the ceiling should be just a little higher." Essentially saying that while peak efficiency may only be slightly higher, the load range of efficiency will be far broader. Hope this helps answer your question!

    • @EM6285

      Mazda engine will be more complicated and its efficiency depends on some variables working perfectly 100% of the time. If Mazda just get 41 MPG on that diesel fueled with gasoline they had failed.
      Remember the Mazda story with all their revolutionary miracle engines that would have changed the world but they didn't
      Rotary
      Renesis rotary
      MZR
      DISI
      SkyActive first generation.
      I drive their current Mazda 2 which is said to get 41 MPG but I do an average of 26 MPG only no matter how conservative I drive.
      Mazda SkyActiv X will be a pain to work with as it is so complex. If TOYOTA gives me great fuel economy with their M20A-FKS Dynamic Force 2.0L I am O.K with that. I need it to be reliable, not complicated and I need it to have engine reliability DNA from past TOYOTA engines. Look at Mazda's list of faulty engines and transmissions...1st generation Mazda 3s are plagued with issues... while my 2001 1.5L 1NZ-FE TOYOTA with 345,000 miles still runs good

    This is seriously impressive stuff from Toyota. Just a simple thing like the angle of the intake valve and a small lip, things that the automotive industry has taken for granted for decades. 40% thermal efficiency in a road car is a huge landmark, it was thought almost impossible to achieve just a decade or so ago. These days companies brag about anit-lag turbos and what not but this is much more important innovation.

    Since it's a common question, this style of engine is currently used in the 2018 Toyota Camry with a 2.5L inline four cylinder. It runs on regular (87 octane) gas, makes 203 HP and 184 lb-ft, and the base trim is rated at 29 city / 41 hwy mpg. Pretty solid numbers for a non-hybrid vehicle, especially considering the decent power.

      Engineering Explained and I am a huge fan of Camry engine. I am running 2.4L inline-4 2AZ-FE on 2015 Scion xB2.5, these little engines last forever. Plus they have so much potential that some people doesn’t realize, and it can gains from 500 hp to over 1000 hp and 800 Ibs pounds of torque. This is why I love camry engines a lot more than 2JZ. Even though 2JZ is an almighty and legendary engine but it’s unique.

    • @boomdaus
      @boomdaus 6 років тому +20

      yeah 35% was the figure that my thermodynamics lecturer states. he also says that our uni exclusively does combustion engines as there is still room for improvement with the systems and many years still left for the combustion engines . The combustion engines have had most of there improvement within the last 15 years. Many car manufactures have taken a easy route out with just going straight to hybrids but there is a large amount of room to improve on the combustion engine (especially with power to weight in consideration).
      Eu legislation requires 95% of a car mass to be recycled needs to be recycled( i believe it to be a car factory goal), with lead acid batteries being around the 98% recyclable but having a large weight and not being as good as lithium batteries. The engine development market is currently a cool place to be with lots of different solution from Mazda and Toyotas efficiency, psa having put some development into diesel hybrid which in my head seems counter intuitive to have a heavier clutch and a medium size turbo as well as batteries

    • @tonysmith2360

      Back in the day under 20% was normal, with more coming from forced induction. Power outputs have gone up as fuel usage has come down, and along with that, emissions. Gas turbines have hit 50%, and low speed marine diesels are the same. The amazing part is it is being done without forced induction.

      Many here says these improvements aren’t anything new, so I was wondering what’s so much about this after all. Like I’m having trouble understanding what exactly was the challenge to achieve that compression rate and so and so in mass-market engine. I mean what’s new here exactly?
      Through these replies though I understood that hardly anyone is putting time/money on improving combustion engines. But I’m failing to see why this was hard to achieve back in the time or for another manufacturers. In another word, why did they have to wait until now to build this? Cylinder’s dimensions and the way to design airflow just sounds possible thing to do in 90’s to me.. Maybe there were another bunch of reason why they had to be shaped like so? Testing equipment/3d simulator got better?
      If anyone had any bit of idea around this, I’d be happy to be educated!

    Great video. But I wanted to say something regarding the combustion time to clarify.
    It may be important to note that the actual combustion time doesn't change. The reason you see the flame front burn "faster" with the new engine is because of better atomization of the AF mixture hence an even ignition of the total mixture. This is in contrast to the one that is "slower" where the propagation of the flame front within the cylinder takes longer because of the messeier nature of the AF mixture.
    It doesn't change the point of your discussion, just adding to it. But for those interested in more details it might be useful. Good to see the public benefiting more from the implementing of this technology to mass market.

    • @benjaminwilliamson3240
      @benjaminwilliamson3240 5 місяців тому

      What it sounds like, in the end, is an even more appropriate application of fluid dynamics. They redesigned valve/cylinder relationship so that a vortex naturally forms out of the AF mixture (which helps it stay moving until combustion) vs two contrary vortices which slam into each other resulting in smaller droplets joining to become larger droplets, reducing the degree of atomization and therefore lower fuel/heat efficiency.

    Hello Jason, as a fellow mechanical engineer, I have enjoyed your shows. Engine efficiency is also a subject of maniacal passion of mine, which has led to me in a journey which included earning an MSc degree in Germany and a PhD, both with specialization in internal combustion engines.
    Anyway, the reason I am writing to you is that in the Toyota piece you did, you showed in-cylinder animations of a tumble flow that, among other measures, resulted in a noticeably quicker heat release, which contributes to the higher thermal efficiency. I investigated this in detail for my PhD research that started in 2010 and concluded in 2016, which include 2 SAE International Journal of Engines articles, one ASME Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power article and an ASME Internal Combustion Engine Division conference paper and of course, my dissertation.
    I wanted to propose that you could do a piece on a novel method I discovered to improve engine thermal efficiency by actually forcing the flame front to move away from the combustion chamber walls, thereby reducing the convective heat transfer thereto. I am no longer bound by any NDA or embargo, so I am eager to share this with the world! I also have in-cylinder schlieren imaging and CFD analyses that I can disclose and share for your video presentation.
    If this interests you, please don't hesitate to contact me. See my PM to you on FB Messenger for contact details.

      I would like to widen a bit your great explanation - It seems that Toyota use the momentum of the in-coming flow to circulate inside the combustion space and than that flow keep this same momentum to the outlet, while in previous engines the in-coming flow comes to stagnation point which cause loss of momentum which is a loss of efficiency.

    First just wanted to say thank you for this channel it has been invaluable to me as a student of the automotive world!
    I also have a request for a video on engine oiling methods (i.e. wet sump vs dry sump vs baffled). What differentiates how a race engine distributes its oil vs a street engine? Some questions I’ve never really found simplified answers for and I think the auto/modding community should have a better understanding of.

    • @terrywaters6186
      @terrywaters6186 4 роки тому +1

      @@williamallman299 Didn't the Honda CVCC also have a third valve to admit a richer mixture near the spark plug? They called it stratified charge because most of the intake stroke consisted of a very lean mixture while there was a richer layer at the top of the combustion chamber..

    • @Xargsify
      @Xargsify 4 роки тому +1

      Suzuki used smallish valves and a relatively steep included angle (for air cooled motorcycle engines) with port shapes that were pro-swirl. They made good power, but you have to put them in the context of the times: Kawasaki and Yamaha was still using 2-valve heads, and the Honda air cooled 16 valve 750/900/1100 engine had a larger included angle to promote longevity and cooling. Efficiencies have all increased many times over by now, with modern liquid cooled small included angle 13:1 big port careful squish EFI 1000cc engines making near 200hp/liter compared to these 80's bikes that were sub - 100hp/liter.
      Kudos to Suzuki for making air-cooled power last a lot longer than it should have, with high-volume oil-cooling and small fin cylinders and heads that maximized heat transfer. I have worked on a LOT of air/oil Suzuki motors and I am still impressed by the engineering, even if they are a bit fiddly to work on by modern standards.

    Another excellent explanation of another new internal combustion technology, that can help extend the life of the IC engine. I really enjoy these very informative videos. I also enjoyed the similar videos you did on the new Mazda controlled compression engine, as well as the Nissan/Infiniti variable displacement / adjustable crankshaft/connecting rods. Just imagine if all of these new innovations could be used in concert together, combining all their respective efficiency and power improvement benefits. A shame such a blend is unlikely any time soon, given how the companies will likely exercise their intellectual property rights, and not share among their competitors. Further in the future we could see an inline 4 engine with variable displacement, controlled compression ignition, AND special dynamic force technology - especially given the ever tightening emissions regulations, and the current pipe dream of going full electric.

    Awesome video. I guess Toyota is addressing the DI carbon build up problem with this new technology as well as improved efficiency. If I am understanding the video, fuel is being sprayed on the back side of the intake valves via the unique placement of the direct injectors and also from the port injectors when under low load. How cool is that!

    • @whodahellru8124
      @whodahellru8124 6 років тому +8

      This fuel injection method is not new, Toyota has been doing this at least with Lexus engines since 2006. Port injection (when in use) can help keep the back of the intake valves clean, but direct injection will never “spray” the intake valves as its intents is to give a precise amount of atomized fuel at exactly the right moment AFTER the intake valves are closed. By being able to do this engines can benefit from having a higher compression ratio without spark knock occurring. Spark knock occurs when a fuel/air mixture is being compressed greatly and pre-ignition occurs; usually before top dead center of the power/ignition stroke.

    • @IstasPumaNevada
      @IstasPumaNevada 6 років тому +7

      The direct injectors in the animation are below the intake valves and on the side of the cylinder wall. The first shot of them pulsing fuel, the valves are turned transparent to aid viewing, so it looks like they're spraying the back of the valves, but by definition they're injecting fuel directly into the cylinder, not in through the valves.

    • @zacknrudi

      @bradcogan8588 5 років тому

      The reason why you need such high octane fuel in high compression vehicles is because higher octane fuel won't pre-ignite and cause pinging like lower octane fuel will. This is caused by uneven surfaces within the combustion chambers. If you can make the interior of the chambers very smooth without faults you can run lower octane fuel with less risk.
