While the compact combustion chamber and higher compression ratio on gasoline engine helps to improve engine efficiency, the advanced thermal management system in diesel engine along with low friction engine oil and modified fuel injection system help diesel engine in faster warm up and
lower frictional losses.
Internal changes include a number of tweaks to
lower frictional losses.
Channeling drive to the front wheels is a fresh six - speed manual, boasting a three - shaft design that Mercedes - Benz claims gives it greater precision and
lower frictional losses.
VW used lightweight pistons and valve gear, among the changes, in an effort to
lower frictional loses and improve thermal properties.
Not exact matches
The JFAST results show that the
frictional stress on the shallow portion of the fault was very
low during the earthquake, which means that either the stress was
low to begin with or all of the stress was released during the earthquake.
«We now have four lines of evidence that
frictional stress was
low during the earthquake,» Brodsky said.
«This transition demonstrates that shear thickening is driven primarily by
frictional contacts, with hydrodynamic forces playing a supporting role at
lower concentrations of particles, when mixtures are less dense,» Royer explained.
High - tech innovations include a dual - stage intake valve - lift system, a substantial reduction of
frictional losses, and a lightweight,
low - noise chain drive.
I am not aware of ANY CVT of ANY design that has
frictional and parasitic losses that are as
low as that of a gear - to - gear transmission.
Examples: Ford claims 40 percent of the Coyote's internal friction comes from its piston rings, so considerable time was spent developing a
low - tension ring package to reduce
frictional losses.
The entire crankshaft drive has a very
low mass and
frictional losses.
The increase in power and efficiency over the former model ensured in this way results from consistent optimization of the combustion chambers, the charge system and the cylinder head, as well as the new arrangement of the ancillary units helping to reduce
frictional losses to an even
lower level than before.
That said, I still see no reason why a systematic application of Graham's liquidation value strategy or LSV's
low price - to - book value strategy can't outperform the market even after taking into account these
frictional costs and, in particular, wide spreads.
