The battery is usually charged at these points to provide for electric
driving at low loads and / or speeds.
During standard operation
at low loads without the risk of wheel slip, the new quattro taps into all the advantages of front - wheel drive.
By running the
engine at low load or idle, the circulation of the oil and coolant helps to even out this heat distribution, avoiding «hot - spots» - then when you switch it off, the engine cools more evenly, reducing the risk of things warping.
Decreasing the size would be good only to a point, as the smallest particles tend to
plasticize at low loadings and aggregate at high loadings, both of which harm macroscopic... -LSB-...]
New direct - injection engine designs exist that can perform multiple injection events per combustion stroke - if the engine is running
at low load in a lean - burn mode and the driver steps on the throttle, rather than increasing the size of the next fuel charge, the ECU can fire the injector straight into the burning mixture for an instant increase in power.
Port injection might work with the direct injection after start -
up at low load, adding swirl in the combustion chamber when DI tends to puddle.
Conversely there is very little information on how the VOLT accomplishes the same task of seeking to depress its engine
rpms at low load particularly when just cruising at high road speeds.
That will mean a a 3.0 litre V6 diesel with 286bhp and an integrated electric motor delivering an extra 47bhp with the ability to run just on the electric motor (
at low load speeds and for a short distance) and, thanks to its combined 333bhp, scoot to 62mph in 7.4 seconds with emissions of 169g / km.
This effect is often achieved by having two separate intake ports, each controlled by a valve, that open two different manifolds - one with a short path that operates at full engine load, and another with a significantly longer path that
operates at lower load.
Something like 50 %
at low load, and 25 % at high load.
At low loads and engine speeds below 2000 rpm the flaps remain closed.
At low loads, one of the inlet valves was disabled.
This, combined with other enhancements, improves the engine characteristics at idle and
at low loads — improvements of which the DSG can take advantage.
At low loads, a flap channels most gas through one side to reduce low - frequency exhaust «rumble.»
At low loads and engine speeds, it shuts down the left - hand cylinder bank to trim fuel consumption.
At low load, the motor on the front axle is solely responsible for propulsion.
At low load, only the motor on the front axle provides propulsion.
At low load and engine speed, flaps in the intake ducts bring about a precise, cylindrical rotation of the incoming air.
