Program

4th International Conference on Ignition Systems for Gasoline EnginesDecember 6th and 7th, 2018, Berlin

ForewordProgram committee

Michael GüntherIAV

Marc SensIAV

In addition to increasing electrifi cation, forecasts show a worldwide increase in the number of gasoline engines being produced. Rising industrialization will likely lead to 120 million new registrations, at least 75% of them for vehicles based on combustion engines, by the year 2030. Ambitious climate targets will remain a chimera as long as the gasoline engine is not adapted to help signifi cantly reduce carbon emissions. In addition to the requirements of the established markets, we must be prepared for new challenges in emerging economic regions in particular. Engines require greater optimization while remaining suffi ciently robust to meet the demands of use all around the world. In addition to the Miller combustion cycle, the industry needs engines that employ strongly charge-diluted combustion to achieve effi ciencies signifi cantly above 40%. Instrumental in this will be ignition processes with great potential to shift ignition limits.

The question we have to ask ourselves is how can ignition systems help further boost the effi ciency of the combustion engine?

We would like to discuss this key issue together with you and cordially invite you, on behalf of IAV and the program committee, to the 4th International Conference on Ignition Systems for Gasoline Engines.
