Yamaguchi Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab works to bring automotive powertrains closer to low fuel consumption and low emissions.
AboutAbout the lab
Toward cars with low fuel consumption and low emissions.
The Yamaguchi Lab studies automotive powertrain systems.
In recent years, buyers can choose not only internal combustion engine vehicles but also hybrid, plug-in hybrid, electric, and fuel cell vehicles.
Even so, there is a demand to further reduce the environmental impact caused by automobiles.
Making full use of experiments and numerical simulation, the lab works to elucidate and model the phenomena in each component, such as engines, catalysts, batteries, and motors.
Key terms
- Powertrain
- A series of devices, such as the engine and motor, that generate the force to drive a vehicle and transmit it to the wheels
- Internal combustion engine
- An engine that burns fuel internally and converts the resulting force into power, such as a gasoline engine
- Catalyst
- A substance that makes a chemical reaction proceed more easily without being changed itself; used to purify exhaust gas
ResearchResearch themes
Automobiles are essential to people's lives, and in recent years various powertrain systems have been devised and put into practical use. To achieve even lower fuel consumption and lower emissions, the Yamaguchi Lab makes full use of experiments and numerical simulation to develop optimal systems for each destination market, and also develops new control methods.
