s we put together this issue, which includes our 42nd Annual Engine Yearbook, I couldn’t help but think about the state of the internal combustion engine in today’s world. If you listen to some people, you wouldn’t think engines have very much time left. Everything is going electric or fuel cell, some say, and engines are on their way out very soon. Anyone who doesn’t recognize this as fact, they will tell you, is a dinosaur reading a newspaper under the glow of an asteroid. But if indeed engines are on their way out, they’re likely to have a very, very long curtain call. And not just because engines remain the most cost-effective and reliable means to do all the myriad things they do. Rather it’s because regardless of what their advocates insist, many of the technologies being touted as the replacement(s) for engines aren’t quite ready to shoulder the load. Cummins Vice Chairman Tony Satterthwaite said as much during a recent hearing on transportation technologies held by a U.S. Senate committee. In response to a question, Satterthwaite mentioned that one of the test projects Cummins was involved in has hydrogen fuel cells providing the energy for an electric ferry. “But these are still technology demonstration projects,” he emphasized. “I would not say that the fuel cell technology is ready for primetime offshore operations.” One senator (who shall remain nameless) who clearly seemed enamored with the promise of fuel cells, asked, “Is it ready for an 18-wheeler?” From the tone of his question, it was somewhat obvious what answer he was hoping to hear. To his credit, Satterthwaite, whose company is as invested these days in fuel cells and hydrogen as any, wouldn’t amplify or misrepresent the technology, even for a member of the world’s greatest deliberative body. “Neither,” he replied. “It is not ready for an 18-wheeler just yet.” He added that while Cummins was working on a number of fuel cell projects, the technology was not “production or efficient-use ready.” While that might have been a bucket of cold water to some, Satterthwaite’s answer was a tonic to those who see that the transition from engines to What Comes Next is likely to be complicated, expensive, drawn out and in no way as easy as some make it out to be. He made it clear that while the new power technologies will be ready for prime time at some point, that point isn’t quite now. In the meantime, there remains a lot of work to be done and it looks like engines will remain the best options to help do it.

NEW ENGINES

Late last year, Honda Engines launched two all-new GC Series engines designed specifically for pressure washers. The Honda GCV170 and GCV200 pressure washer engines replaced the GCV160 and GCV190 models and are engineered to provide best-in-class power and improved torque for premium residential applications, the company said. Both engines yield more power and torque than their predecessors. At 166 cc, the GCV170 has 18% higher torque (8.2 lb. ft.) and 9% more horsepower (4.8 hp) than the GCV160, while the 201 cc GCV200 provides 13% more torque (9.4 lb. ft.) and a 10% horsepower gain (5.6 hp) over the GCV190. The engines are designed with a range of features aimed at improving longterm performance and reliability. The Honda Cycloflow combustion system is engineered to enhance the air-fuel mixture and make it easier to start the engine and idle smoothly while also making it more resilient to poor quality fuel. New V-shaped valves and a pent-roof shape in the combustion chamber enable air in the cylinder to flow more smoothly, the company said, while a longer stroke also enhances turbulence in the cylinder and helps air-fuel mixing. A Fuel Off position stops the flow of fuel to the engine when the

pressure washing is complete. This allows the engine to run until the majority of fuel in the carburetor is consumed, preventing sticky carburetor buildup that makes for cleaner storage and easier future starting, Honda said. The addition of an Auto Choke and relocation of the wax thermostatic element from the top to the side of the cylinder improves heat transfer and makes for easier engine starting in all conditions, Honda said, and enhanced balance of the crankshaft reduces engine vibration. The engines are assembled at the Honda Power Equipment Manufacturing, Inc. facility in Swepsonville, N.C., and meet the SAEJ1349 net horsepower standard, which rates engine power in real-world operating conditions with the muffler and air filter in place. The Honda GCV200 and GCV170 pressure washer engines are available to power equipment OEMs. Both carry a two-year non declining warranty and parts and services is available via the Honda national network of dealers. More information on the new GC series engines can be found in the January issue of Diesel Progress.

KENWORTH GOES WIDE ON NEW MEDIUMS

From left: Kenworth T480V, Kenworth T380, Kenworth T280 and Kenworth T180.

enworth kept a few of the trucking press busy over a two-week period with the launch of the T680 Next Gen, discussed here last month, quickly followed by the launch of the new range of wide-cab medium-duty Class 5 through “baby 8” trucks. The development of the new trucks was a five-year program and well worth doing as the trucks they will eventually replace were introduced nearly 30 year ago. Basically, the wide cab is the same as Kenworth uses on the bigger, heavier Class 8s. The 6.8 ft. wide aluminum cab has a number of changes – most notably in the scaled-down digital dash. In most other respects the cabs are identical, though they sit lower, especially on the small Class 5 chassis.

FOUR MODELS

The four all-new models are the 180, 280, 380 and 480. The 180 has GVWR of up to

19,500 lb. and the 280 to 26,000 lb. As such, both can be driven by non-commercial drivers. The Class 7 version of the 380 has a weight rating up to 33,000 lb. and the “baby 8” with tandem drive axles starts at 33,001 lb. and, depending on lift axles or boosters, could scale up to 80,000 lb. Kenworth said that the “baby 8” is unlikely to go all the way to this maximum as the biggest engine available in the new vehicles is the PX-9, Paccar’s 9.0 L six-cylinder diesel with a 380 hp rating for the top model. According to Kenworth, customers who want the heavier weights and horsepower will likely step up to the full size vocational T880 with available 13 or 15 L power. The Class 5 and 6 wide-cab models are powered by the 7.0 L Paccar PX-7 rated 300 or 325 hp and is the same as the Cummins B6.7. The T480 at the drive featured a McNeilus transit mixer installation and was one of five demonstration models at a trucking press event in Phoenix. Also on hand was a T180 with a stake bed body, a T280 with 26 ft. dry van box and an ultra-short wheelbase Class 6 T280 water truck. Stepping up a class to

10 | DIESEL PROGRESS | JUNE 2021

the T380 was an Altec arial utility truck and at the top the mixer chassis T480. I drove all but the water truck. Phoenix city streets made the majority of the 15-minute drive along with a short stretch of urban freeway to stretch out to the speeds that could be driven. Some of the city streets were extremely rough to give the suspensions and cab air ride a workout and the short freeway allowed for a quick dash up to 50 or 55 mph. All five had the detail design, fit and finish that are Kenworth hallmarks with finely trimmed though practical interiors and all single-drive-axle trucks but the Class 5 T180 had cab suspension, air ride seats and air ride drive axle suspensions. The tandem of the T480 was suspended on a high-stability Hendrickson HMX460 rubber block for high load capacity and stability with a decent ride. LOW NOISE LEVELS

The first truck I tried was the Altec utility-bodied T380. It was representative of all, with the wide-cab appeal of the T880 with available threeacross seating. Conversation was easy with the low noise level. Because this was a

Class 7, it had the 9.0 L engine at 300 hp coupled to Allison’s latest 3500RDS transmission. This transmission is claimed to be highly fuel efficient so with the PX-9, it should be an economical set-up going down the road. The Class 6 and 7 trucks incorporated the new Paccar eight-speed, which is based on the just-introduced ZF automatic transmission. The premium vinyl seating was both comfortable and attractive. The roof height was the lower of the two available but still there was good storage all around the cab. The vertical document storage slot on the passenger side of the dash provides a very useful feature that should please the driver/operator of any of the trucks. Another desirable feature that comes from the T880 is a claimed exclusive in mediumduty – a temperature-select heating, ventilation and air conditioning setup that allows a driver to select a comfortable temperature rather than fiddle with the controls to get comfortable. All in all, the new KW mediums have a very driveroriented cab and controls that make the truck feel more like a large car than a mediumheavy commercial vehicle. n

PAVING A ROAD TO PROSPERITY T

he world is abuzz with optimism and record-breaking measures that seem to have no end, which makes sense considering the magnitude and overall depth of the pandemic-created chasm from which we are emerging. Each day seems to improve on the last with the media constantly updating us on how restrictions on movement, masking and distancing are being lifted and the pandemic clouds begin to clear. Our first quarter GDP in 2021 was recorded at a remarkable 6.5% and the Atlanta branch of the Federal Reserve is currently predicting a GDP reading of around 10% for the second quarter that ends this month. Although it continues to be recalibrated, it remains astonishing when you consider that between 2% to 3% is typically considered an ‘ideal’ growth rate. Among the key economic factors propelling this

dizzying resurgence are increased consumer spending due to pent up demand and the building back of inventories with an increase in manufacturing. On the flip side, numerous supply chain issues (particularly semiconductors) continue to prove troublesome and present logistical obstacles to recovery. Inflationary pressures on raw materials like steel, copper and lumber could prompt some pumping of the brakes as well. But hey, what do we do when there’s a problem at hand? Throw more money at it! ROADS NEED WORK

With the hoped-for passing of a much-needed infrastructure bill by Congress, the government will bring our current system of roads and bridges up to date, not to mention the number of jobs created and machinery purchased. We need to keep our transportation system current, and it cannot be done with the diminishing funds accrued through gas taxes. Another aspect is that the contractors that do most of the work on our highways and streets are working with aging equipment that needs replacement. Let’s just assume Congress

12 | DIESEL PROGRESS | JUNE 2021

finds a way to see eye to eye for the first time in a long while and passes the bill. If this miracle takes place, I believe there’s a strong possibility that road building equipment like asphalt pavers, compactors and even motor graders will be crucial to this resurrection. Looking at asphalt pavers, there are two types – commercial pavers mostly used on smaller projects (driveways, parking lots and park pathways) and highway pavers that do the big jobs on interstate highways. When the sun is out and we’re on a summer road trip with the family, it’s these highway-class machines that are commonly bringing traffic to a standstill. The top players in the North American paver market include LeeBoy, Caterpillar, Volvo, and Weiler, which represent approximately 75% percent of total machine sales each year. Smaller suppliers like Roadtec Vogele, Bomag, Mauldin, Salsco, Carlson and Dynapac make up the balance. Today’s commercial class pavers account for a little over half (52%) of North American annual sales, which is down from the years prior to the housing crisis when sales exceeded 60% of total paver sales. The residential

expansion and record housing starts back then translated to more neighborhood streets, parking lots and scenic trails. However, sales dipped abruptly following the economic drop that led up to the collapse. HOUSING BOOST

According to an analysis conducted by Freddie Mac last month, there is currently a single-family home deficit estimated to be in the neighborhood of 4 million units. So it might be safe to expect a resurgence for commercial pavers. The lion’s share of paving projects since the housing downturn has involved road repair and maintenance requiring highway class models. With more funds going towards road and highway projects via an infrastructure bill, there is little doubt that the highwayclass paver market will also benefit greatly. The market actually held its ground last year and grew 1% over 2019, and we are expecting more growth of around 5% to 10% this year, even before an infrastructure plan is set. Additional growth will come if and when a bill becomes reality, and we’re hoping this is the big year to make that happen. n

42ND ANNUAL ENGINE YEARBOOK After challenging 2020, better times for engine manufacturers. By Mike Brezonick

n these strange times, it is perhaps appropriate to remember that in four-stroke engines, the next movement of a piston from the bottom dead center position is straight up. Because that might be a fair representation of what’s happened in the North American engine industry. Like every industry in the world, the COVID-19 pandemic slammed the North American engine industry in 2020. Just how hard can be seen in the accompanying chart from global engine analyst Power Systems Research. Total engine sales plummeted by more than five million units in 2020 from the previous year. Some segments fared better than others, but no matter how you sliceand-dice the numbers, it’s a major “ouch!” Happily, looking at PSR’s forecast for NAFTA ENGINE PRODUCTION

It would have been enough if the engine industry had done nothing more than tread water, kept the things that were already on the road, in the fields or on the water, moving. They did that, but as you’ll see as you look through the pages that follow, they did much more than run in place.

Late last year, Cummins debuted its latest EPA 2021 emissions compliant X12 and

X15 series diesel engines for North American Class 8 truck applications. The new engines are built on the established architecture of the 2017 engines, with a focus on increased uptime, better overall total cost of ownership and improved drivability. Cummins currently provides an oil drain interval of 75,000 miles for operators achieving 7 mpg or more with the X12 and X15 Efficiency engines. Customers averaging between 5 and 7 mpg will see oil drain intervals with the EPA 2021 X15 Performance series engine extended by 10,000 miles. To further increase uptime for customers, Cummins has matched the service schedule for both the fuel filter and oil changes on both the X12 and X15 series products, so customers won’t have to plan maintenance separately.

For better overall total cost of ownership, Cummins said it made the 2021 powertrains more fuel efficient than ever. The 2021 X15 Efficiency Series has demonstrated up to 3.5% better fuel economy compared to the 2019 product. With EX ratings that require the Endurant HD transmission and GPS look-ahead data an additional 1.5% efficiency is possible. Those who require more than 500

Customers of the X12 will also see improvements, with an up to 2.5% potential gain in base engine and a possible 1.5% further improvement with EX ratings, which will be newly available to the X12 in 2021. The 2021 X15 Performance Series offers select powertrain features that were previously unavailable above 500 horsepower. Features like SmartCoast, Predictive Cruise Control and Predictive Road Speed Governor are available for customers with automated manual powertrains. Additionally, the ISX12N natural gas engine has been combined with the Endurant HD N 12-speed automated transmission from Eaton Cummins Automated Transmission Technologies for heavy-duty regional haul fleets looking to lower emissions and improve their sustainability profile. When paired with the Endurant HD N automated transmission, the ISX12N natural gas engine is available with a rating of

400 hp and 1450 lb-ft torque and can operate with 100% compressed natural gas (CNG), liquid natural gas (LNG) or renewable natural gas (RNG). This reduces smog-forming NOx emissions by 90% compared to the EPA standard, the company said. When operated using renewable natural gas (RNG), the system is credited with a neutral to negative carbon index, resulting in net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at or below zero, Cummins said. Cummins said its 6.7L Turbo Diesel for the Ram pickup now offers a marketleading 420 hp and 1075 lb.ft. of torque. The improvements were achieved through a new calibration application to the patented sliding nozzle variable geometry turbocharger and a 29,000 psi capable fuel injection system. OFF-HIGHWAY ENGINES

Cummins said its latest B6.7 Performance Series engine meets Tier 4 final emissions standards and incorporates stop-start capability which can help operators further reduce running costs as well as their environmental impact through lower noise and CO2 emissions. Stop-start capability further reduces fuel consumption as well as overall maintenance costs, Cummins said.

Expected fuel savings are between 5% and 10% but could be higher based on the machine duty cycle. It also delivers on site sociability benefits by reducing on-site noise and exhaust emissions, particularly when machines sit idling for long periods in between tasks. Along with improving fuel efficiency, the system also reduces CO2 emissions. Stop-start has been integrated into the B6.7 platform with both hardware and software changes. Specially developed bearings in the engine along with upgrades to the flywheel ring gear and starter motor ensures long life and reliable performance with frequent starts. Cummins said its engine electronic control module (ECM) software is integrated with the machine controller software to maintain the high levels of productivity, efficiency and safety. The B6.7, as well as the L9 Performance Series engine, also incorporates engine power take-off (PTO) capabilities to support key applications such as cranes, crushers and screeners. The single and dual rear-engine power take-offs (REPTO) compliment their standard PTO capability used for items such as hydraulic pumps. Fitted with the dual REPTO, the B6.7 will have a total drive capability of 221 lb.

The Volvo Group parts distribution center in Byhalia, Miss., functioned at full strength, which ensured reliable response for shipping parts to dealers and customers across North America. Last spring, the company launched an online instructor-led training curriculum. As a result, Volvo Penta’s industrial and marine dealer technicians can be trained online in real-time by skilled technical trainers. The addition of the online training option led to an increase of 28% in the number of technicians trained over the previous year (1623 in 2019 compared to 2078 in 2020). Already in 2021, more than 1400 technicians have been trained through a combination of online training and in-person instruction, the company said. In November 2020, Volvo Penta’s parts distribution warehouse in Vancouver officially migrated to Volvo Group’s warehouse in Toronto for Canadian customers. This move provides a more centralized location, optimal delivery solution and higher fill rates for customers, as well as a synergized, more cost-effective solution for all Volvo Group customers in Canada, the company said. In addition, a more mature Order Management System (PartsLinQ DFS, which has been used in the U.S. since 2016) was implemented. The entire process was undertaken within a 10-month period during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. This, the company said, was an important milestone for Volvo Penta’s parts business in the region, and one that was well received by partners based on feedback. A key Volvo Penta dealer has confirmed the fill rate for Q1 2021 in the new location is averaging 96.6%, compared to 94.6% in Q1 in the previous year and location.

LUBRICATION

New generation API FA-4 lubricants show benefits in truck fleets. By John Loop

riginal equipment manufacturers everywhere are familiar with the global emissions standards that have spurred fundamental changes to the traditional diesel-powered drivetrain. Gone are plumes of black exhaust that typified heavy-duty trucks on American highways, eliminated with increasingly efficient engine architectures and sophisticated aftertreatment devices. Meanwhile, truck operators and fleet owners are reaping the benefits of modern vehicle technology. Today’s trucks offer dramatically improved fuel economy compared with older-model vehicles, helping operators keep their assets on the road for longer periods of time between refueling. Considering that fuel costs account for up to 24% of the average fleet owner’s cost per mile, according to the American Transportation Research Institute, any efficiency gains are attractive. To those ends, it is interesting to consider that four years after the American Petroleum Institute (API) delivered an updated specification for heavy-duty engine oils in the form of API CK-4 and FA-4, adoption of API FA-4certified oils – those formulated to lower viscosities so as to deliver fuel economy gains

ABOUT THE AUTHOR JOHN LOOP is technology manager for

Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oils at Lubrizol, a supplier of lubricant and fuel additives headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio.

– still only hover around 1% of market share in North America, according to data collected by the Kline Group. An API FA-4 10W-30 lubricant, for example, can help a vehicle achieve up to 2% greater fuel economy versus an API CK-4 15W40 lubricant, according to data from the North American Council for Freight Efficiency (NACFE). However, 15W-40 lubricants still maintain over 79% market share, according to Kline. Why is this the case? While API FA-4 lubricants are intended for use in new vehicles and have limited backwards compatibility, one major hurdle to wider adoption has been OEM reluctance to specify its use – even in in vehicles with new model engines. The reality is that API FA-4 formulations can and have been proven to provide significant real-world fuel economy benefits in all different kinds of engines, all while delivering the necessary performance benefits those engines rely on for long, useful lives. EMISSIONS MANDATES

Even with the push toward electrification, mandates for lower emissions aren’t going away. That means more pressure on OEMs to create ever-more fuel-efficient engines to meet new industry standards. Meanwhile, the second phase of the Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Fuel Efficiency Standards from EPA and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) becomes effective in model year 2021, phasing in through 2027. Each phase will require larger gains in

58 | DIESEL PROGRESS | JUNE 2021

fuel economy and greater emissions reductions. Meeting these requirements now and into the future will require everything at an OEM’s disposal and lower-viscosity lubricants can be an effective tool. The API FA-4 spec was developed as a way to achieve higher levels of fuel economy in new engines via lower viscometrics: a thinner lubricant that flows across engine parts with less resistance can directly translate to better efficiency. Certain OEMs took advantage and their experience with lower viscosities today may better position them as the drive toward higher levels of efficiency continues. DURABILITY CONCERNS

The market has long held to what appears a logical belief – a thicker viscosity oil can better protect an engine than a thinner one. Meanwhile, many OEMs are understandably conservative about any choice that could potentially lead to greater wear in its hardware and the warranty claims from end users that would result. But with the advent of advanced additive chemistry, this traditional wisdom no longer holds true and lowerviscosity lubricants have been shown to provide robust protection for a wide range of engine types. FA-4 lubricants must demonstrate the same performance

as higher-viscosity API CK-4 lubricants, including oxidation control, shear stability, aeration performance and other criteria. All relevant lab testing confirms this performance in API FA-4-certified oils. But what about in the real world?

Lubrizol has field-tested API FA-4 lubricants in real-world units from a variety of OEMs and have generated over 86 million miles of data. Trucks we have tested include new models designed to be filled with FA-4 lubricants, as well as older model trucks where FA-4 is not specified by the manufacturer. In each of these cases, the data has remained clear: Engines, both old and new, have demonstrated expected levels of wear at up to 500,000 miles of service while showing significant fuel economy improvement. INCREASED ADOPTION

As older trucks inevitably are phased out of service due to fleet buying cycles and

necessary replacement, an increasing number of available heavy-duty vehicles will be eligible for service with FA-4 lubricants. While adoption rates remain low today, it is reasonable to expect forward-thinking fleet owners and operators with an eye toward maximizing their profitability to increasingly seek a lubricant option that can reduce their permile fuel costs. This must, of course, be balanced with uncompromised durability and wear protection. As Lubrizol has found through extensive testing, properly formulated FA-4 lubricants that utilize the right additive chemistry can provide that balance. OEMs that are able to recommend FA-4 solutions may stand to sharpen their competitive edge with the ability to pass those benefits on to their customers. Further, building confidence with FA-4 solutions today can better prepare OEMs for a lower-viscosity future as fuel economy and emissions standards continue their march forward. n

o date, the most reliable and inexpensive means for delivering food or medical aid into remote areas is a truck. But a new organization that specializes in unmanned aerial vehicles is aiming to change that. Based, in the U.K., Windracers is a privately funded not-for-profit organization focused on providing transportation services to the humanitarian aid, research and environmental protection communities. Working with a research team from the Faculty of Engineering and the Environment’s Computational Engineering and Design Group at University of Southampton, it has developed a specialized drone, the Windracers Ultra unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Powered by a pair of Briggs & Stratton Vanguard air-cooled gasoline engines, the remote-controlled drone is engineered to reliably deliver food and medical supplies to remote areas. “We realized we could use emerging UAV technologies to help solve several key world issues, starting with medical and food aid distribution,” said Charles Scales, CEO and co-founder of Windracers. Scales and Windracers co-founder Stephen Wright looked at the international aid landscape and saw that due to poor

Windracers UAVs use Vanguard engines to deliver food and medicines to remote areas ground infrastructure, weather and topography challenges, it often takes up to six months for aid to reach recipients in countries such as South Sudan. “Sadly, millions of people in the UN World Food Program emergency zones require food aid,” Scales said. “And up to six-month delivery times are, this day and age unacceptable. UAV technologies can play a real part in closing that gap. “UAVs allow you to distribute rapidly across a wide geographic area direct to villages, which a truck or large aircraft couldn’t manage. It’s direct, it’s diverse and it’s an extremely rapid and flexible way to approach aid distribution.”

Determining the power source was the first step the design process, which began when the company was formed in 2017. “There’s no guide to creating a UAV like this, so we started with the engine,” Scales said. “Everything revolves around the power solution.” With weight and output the key considerations, Windracers chose the air-cooled Vanguard engines. Equipped with electronic fuel injection, the engines are horizontal shaft, V-twin engines with bore and stroke dimensions of 75.4 x 70.1 mm and a total displacement of 627 cc. Each are rated 23 hp (gross) at 3600 rpm. “It’s a strong commercial

‘NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT’

Designed to carry 220 lb. of cargo up to 621 miles (100 kg up to 1000 km), the Ultra UAV is designed to be inexpensive, robust and reliable. “There’s nothing else like it,” said Scales. “We used aluminum for the body, which is highly recyclable, relatively inexpensive and robust. It’s smartly built so we can deliver aid at an economic price point – and one day, be cheaper than a truck.”

engine that can handle a more rugged environment when needed,” said Mark Kerr, UK OEM sales manager for Briggs & Stratton. The engines were modified slightly to save weight. The blower housing and recoil assembly were removed, a different air filter assembly was added and the air ducting was changed. “The engines are highly advanced,” said Scales. “They’re tough, they do the job, and they fit within our aviation weight constraints. It’s an engine that’s been proven

in commercial applications. More importantly, the service intervals are much longer than most UAV aviation engines,

By spec’ing two engines on the drone, Windracers added a measure of insurance. In the event one engine has an issue, the mission can be aborted and the Ultra UAV can return on one engine. The Windracers team worked with the Briggs & Stratton Power Application Centre Europe (PACE), led by Gerhard Ihrig along with a team at the U.S. Power Application Center in Milwaukee, Wis., led by Engine Application Specialist International, Ron Weber. “We have a great relationship,” said Scales. “We ask questions and Briggs answers them with a solution quickly. It’s exactly the partnership we need at this stage in our development.” n

UAVS FLY COVID AID TO ISLANDS While the Windracers concept envisioned the Ultra UAV being used to deliver aid to some of the more remote areas of the world, the COVID-19 pandemic saw them operate much closer to home. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, they were enlisted to deliver pandemic aid to the Isle of Wight off the south coast of England and later to the Isles of Scilly off the coast of Cornwall. “Many island and remote hospitals were worried about getting necessary drugs and PPE, as well as blood samples and tests back and forth from the main logistical and test centers on mainland U.K locations,” said Scales. The Southampton City Council began to explore other options to the Isle of Wight. But with reduced ferry services and grounded aviation their options were limited. “That’s where we were called upon and came in with our Ultra unmanned system,” he said. The city council engaged the Windracers team to fly medical supplies using an air corridor between the mainland and island. The company secured approval from the U.K. Civil Aviation Authority to conduct Beyond Visual Line of Sight flights. “That changed the landscape for us,” Scales noted. “It allowed us to start stretching our legs and — critically — gave us the ability to fly from a mainland to an island.” The first flight to the Isle of Wight delivered a 110 lb. (50 kg) load of supplies to St Mary’s NHS in just 20 minutes. “We found we could provide the quick response needed by the medical teams,” Scales said. “They need something and we can get it there in a matter of an hour or less.” The impact to the communities and hospitals was immediate. The UAV provides pilot-free, weatherresistant and efficient medical aid delivery. “It’s autonomous, so that helps keep the virus from entering the island through an ill pilot, and it can fly during inclement weather, and is very rapid when compared to a ship-based service,” Charles said. “It’s absolutely changing medical logistics.”

t might seem strange to consider something that’s been around for decades as “new.” But considering all the changes and enhancements that Arrow Engine Co. has made to its A54 gaseous fuel engine platform, it’s hard to think of the A54-E as anything but new. The well-known A54 engine, which has been working away for decades in wellhead compression, gas lift and other oil & gas applications, has gotten a significant makeover that firmly positions it for a greater number of 21st century applications, the company said. “We originally acquired that engine from Waukesha in 1993,” said Rick Harris, director of Engineering for Tulsabased Arrow, which is part of the Trimas Corp. family of businesses. “It’s been our number one engine over the last 27 years. “Now we have modernized and relaunched it as a new engine model that’s technology-driven, EPA certified and with an attractive new price point. This will allow us to get into new markets and expand our current markets.” One of the most significant segments Arrow has its eye on is mobile power generation. “It’s been a compressor engine, a pump jack engine and a driver for various steady-state applications, but mobile power generation has never been an area we’ve played in,” said Harris. “But now with the technology improvements, EPA certification, and significantly improved price point, Arrow has a proven industrial engine option for mobile power generation manufacturers.” The A54-E is an inline six-cylinder industrial engine with bore and stroke dimensions of 100.9 x 118.49 mm and an overall displacement of 5.4 L.

With a 17.5 qt. oil capacity, the A54-E has an oil change interval of 750 hours. DURABLE DESIGN

The engine is rated 68 hp (50.7 kW) continuous and 75 hp (55.9 kW) intermittent at 1800 rpm with a peak torque of 233 lb. ft. (315.9 Nm) at 900 rpm. It is certified to the U.S. EPA’s stationary and nonroad mobile emissions standards operating on pipeline-quality natural gas, propane or 700 to 1600 Btu wellhead gas. “The base A54 design is industryproven, extremely durable and is completely rebuildable,” said Harris. “It’s a true industrial engine. But before now, it hasn’t been EPA certified, and

Woodward and Arrow cooperated in the development and integration of a proven ignition and air/fuel ratio control system, Woodward’s PG+ control technology.

“Woodward has a 150-year pedigree of developing very robust products designed for long life and harsh environments, so we felt it was a perfect match to work with Arrow on this engine given the A-54’s workhorse reputation and its need for reliability and long life in the field.” said Casey Mulder, director of Marketing for Fort Collins-based Woodward Inc. INTEGRATED SYSTEM

Woodward PG+ system provides a total system approach to engine control, providing air, fuel, ignition, combustion, and knock control–all in a single integrated system. This integrated approach eliminates multiple control boxes, minimizes wiring complexity,

and simplifies the overall engine application process. The PG+ electronics, valves, integrated sensors, and advanced control algorithms provide the correct gas and air flow under varying conditions, enabling the engine to run at an optimal level with low emissions. At the core of Woodward PG+ system is the Electronic Flow Regulator (EFR). Operating as part of the PG+ total system, the EFR provides full authority fuel control for precise fuel metering over a wide range of changing environmental conditions. “Customers today want to run engines on just about every fuel quality imaginable and the EFR allows just that while maintaining tight air/fuel ratio to continually keep the engine in emissions compliance,” said Mulder. “All components in the PG+ system are designed for extreme robustness knowing how harsh the environmental and fuel conditions can be for industrial engines. We hear from many end users their frustration with light duty control systems typical in the market today that are derived from automotive components that fail frequently and require continual replacement and unplanned maintenance. Customers who have switched to PG+ are thrilled with the reliable performance and lower maintenance costs PG+ provides.” Developing a new engine application during the pandemic posed some potentially challenging issues for both Arrow and Woodward engineering teams. Some of the development was completed at Arrow facilities while final calibration and EPA emissions testing was completed at the Woodward Technical Center. Despite the challenges the teams collaborated 100% remotely and in less than five months completed the engine application and submitted all emission testing results to the EPA. “I think this is a testament to the amazing talents and capabilities of both the Arrow and Woodward engineering teams.” said Mulder.

GASEOUS FUEL ENGINES

EPA CERTIFIED PACKAGE

The Woodward technology enables a number of significant new capabilities for the A54-E, Harris said. “We’re most excited to provide an EPA certified package with the flexibility of running on various fuels for both stationary and nonroad mobile applications,” he said. “We also placed an emphasis on providing an IoT connected engine for end users to remotely monitor their equipment. They now have that option through the use of telematics devices that can broadcast the available J1939 data from the ECM. “Another advantage of the A54-E is its bi-fuel capability. The new fuel system allows for automatic switching between natural gas and propane. This means our customer could connect both fuel sources and before the propane tank runs out the engine will switch to the available natural gas source, preventing down time. The system uses an advanced fuel quality learning strategy, so no adjustments are required. As long as the engine is getting the proper Btu content fuel, the system will perform all necessary corrections to maintain compliance and performance.” The development effort with Woodward allowed Arrow to bring the updated engine to market in less than a year, Harris said. “We’ve been working hand-in-hand with Woodward on this engine since Q4 of last year,” said Harris. “They have been exceptional to work with and by combining both companies’ expertise, the development cycle was not only very meticulous but extremely efficient.” DCL, the well-known manufacturer of aftertreatment technology, supplied the three-way catalyst. “A lot of engines in this range tend to use a cheaper, automotive-style catalyst,” Harris said. “We opted to go with a bit more industrial integral catalyst. It’s slightly oversized for the application because we wanted to carry on the tradition and customer expectation of the Arrow engine being a durable and reliable product. “DCL has a very good reputation.

The new Arrow A54 engine utilizes a DCL three-way catalyst.

When I talk with potential customers about the A54-E, their first question is what fuel system are you using and the second question is what catalyst are you using? When responding with Woodward and DCL, the reactions have been about positive experiences with both manufacturers and they’re happy that’s who we chose.” RANGE OF OPTIONS

The A54-E engine is available with a number of options as Arrow is looking to utilize an “a la carte” ordering experience for its customers. One such option is the engine control panel. Arrow’s standard engine control panel is a customized programmable color display. “We wanted to provide a rugged control panel with features our customers get value out of. This panel provides relevant engine information,

including engine vitals and diagnostics, as well as an intuitive menu structure for displaying and configuring set points, timers and alarms useful for automation applications,” said Harris. Other options include various engine configurations from a certified engine kit aimed at OEM packagers to a fully enclosed power unit or stationary generator set. Other engine options include oil coolers, fans, silencers, clutches, bases, autostart systems, telematics, fuel filtration and various shut down devices. Arrow will also provide engineered-to-order solutions for customers in niche applications or who want to maintain product continuity with an existing fleet of equipment. The A54-E is the first of a new range of EPA certified engines Arrow Engine will begin launching in 2021. In the second half of the year, the company will debut the initial model in the new KP series of gaseous-fueled engines that have been in development since early 2020. “The next wave for us will be a complete series of new engines ranging from 24 hp to 95 hp that we’re excited about because it will continue to expand our product offering and bring greater market opportunities,” Harris said. “I think our customers will be really excited about what the future holds for Arrow.” n www.arrowengine.com

Parker’s new Parflex J2044 fitting designed to address SCR dosing system issues

n the decade since selective catalytic reduction (SCR) aftertreatment began making its way into the on- and off-highway diesel engine marketplace, diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) has become ubiquitous. But it remains unique among the many fluids used in vehicles and machines for one unfortunate reason – it easy freezes when the temperature drops below 12°F (-11 º C). Further complicating matters, DEF is a water-based solution consisting of 32.5% aqueous urea and 67.5% water, that can expand as much as 7% when frozen. This can result in significant problems for DEF delivery systems and particularly the fittings that conduct the fluid between tanks and injection components. To address those issues, Parker Hannifin’s Parflex Division, the Ravenna, Ohio-based part of the company’s Fluid Connectors Group, has developed a new patent-pending fitting designed for SCR dosing systems. The new SAE J2044 compatible fitting is engineered to reduce or eliminate issues brought about by thermal extremes and provide a simple, reliable connection technology. “To protect the fluid connectors at keyoff, there are two prevailing strategies,” said Ty Henry, senior engineer at Parker Hannifin. “The first is to return the DEF remaining in the lines back to the tank during a purge cycle. The other method is to use components that can absorb the additional volume by expanding.

The new Parflex patent-pending SAE J2044 compatible fitting engineered to alleviate thermal issues with SCR urea dosing systems.

“Hose assemblies and their connectors for these “non-purge” systems have more challenging requirements than those used in typical low-pressure applications.” CURRENT LIMITATIONS

Henry explained that typical DEF aftertreatment systems have a maximum working pressure of less than 200 psi with continuous operating temperatures ranging from -40° to 257°F (-40° to 125°C). “These parameters are also common to fuel systems and have resulted in the male SAE J2044 endform becoming the de facto industry standard for aftertreatment components like tanks, pumps and injectors,” Henry said. “The J2044 endform also allowed the industry to take advantage of readily available J2044 quick connect fittings.” Many commercial fittings incorporate a thermoplastic construction, using either glass-filled polyamide 12 or polyphalamide (PPA) and both are compatible with DEF and maintain strength at high temperatures. Since

66 | DIESEL PROGRESS | JUNE 2021

regulations in the U.S. and Europe require that DEF injection systems be heated, resistanceheated wires are typically added to the exterior of the fitting. But while thermoplastic fittings are simple and versatile, there are limitations, Henry said. “Non-purge hose assemblies rely on the hose and mating components to absorb the DEF expansion should the system freeze when the engine is shut down,” he said. “The fittings themselves do not have any inherent freeze protection beyond the minimum tensile strength as required by the SAE J2044 standard. “In some cases, dynamic conditions can reduce the effectiveness of the hose assemblies to protect the fittings. In others, the fittings can be forced to protect against additional volume as components freeze at different rates. In that environment, even designs that exceed the SAE minimums can be subject to tensile failure.” Henry also noted that when

EMISSIONS TECHNOLOGY

continuously exposed to temperatures exceeding (130°C) – hardly an unlikely occurrence with DEF systems often positioned in proximity to hot engines and exhaust systems, especially in offhighway equipment – thermoplastic materials can degrade and fittings nearest the exhaust components can become brittle. This, coupled with the shock loads common in demanding off-road machine duty cycles, can lead to premature failure. As a supplier of heated DEF hose assemblies, Parker’s Parflex Division saw this as an opportunity to meet a gap in the market and set out to create a more robust SAE J2044 compatible fitting. “The goal was to create a fitting that could satisfy not one, but all the deficiencies of currently available SAE J2044 fittings for aftertreatment dosing systems,” Henry said. The result of that effort is Parker’s new stainless steel J2044 compatible fitting. While metal for female J2044 fittings is not a new concept, the core of the patentpending Parker fitting design is a onepiece, machined, 316 stainless steel body that provides high strength, temperature resistance and long-term DEF resistance.

geometry for the O-rings that seal to the male J2044 endform. These components are inserted with the seals into the thermoplastic fitting body and use a retainer to hold them in place. Parker’s stainless steel body incorporates dual O-ring glands and eliminates the need for an additional retainer and a lowprofile stainless steel spring clip is used to lock the fitting to the male endform. “This reduction of sealing components by 50% and utilization of existing Parker EPDM O-rings is consistent with Parker’s Simple by Design engineering strategy,” Henry said. The use of a stainless steel body was expected to provide a significant increase in tensile force, which was confirmed during validation testing, Henry said. “Improvement ranged from six times greater in the 3/8 in. size up to 17 times for the 1/4 in. design,” he said. “More importantly, the jump in tensile strength translated into real-world performance. “Hard-freeze testing using a plugged, steel DEF reservoir confirmed conditions that fractured thermoplastic control samples, but the testing left the stainless

steel fittings fully functional.” High temperature strength was equally impressive, he said. Test assemblies were fabricated using high-pressure hoses and then subjected to burst testing at 150°C. “Regardless of size, all samples achieved the 1000 psi limit of the testing chamber without failure,” Henry said. “The results demonstrate superior performance near hot exhaust components when compared to thermoplastic alternatives.” MANY OPTIONS

Parker said the stainless steel J2044 fitting can be selected as an option in Parker’s heated DEF hose assemblies in three (1/4 in., 5/16 in. and 3/8 in.) sizes and the stainless steel construction also makes it an option for coolant or fuel systems when matched with different O-ring compounds and other Parker Parflex hoses. The design can be combined with other Parflex fitting series without tooling, the company said, enabling it to be paired with myriad other Parker hose and tubing combinations. n parker.com/scrhose

In addition, Henry said that as thermoplastic J2044 fittings are often designed for high-volume, automated production, this can lead to compromises, particularly when it comes to sealing. The conventional fittings typically require multiple components to create the sealing

COMPONENTS Compressor specialist T/CCI enhances R&D capabilities. By Chad Elmore

f you build it, they will come … to you for testing. That’s the reality – in its simplest form – that has been the primary driver for T/CCI Manufacturing to continuously invest in its research and development capabilities. The compressor specialist’s portfolio of test benches, data loggers and other equipment has evolved over the years and it has done so in step with its customers. The company’s test capabilities have now been neatly packaged as the Advanced Testing Center (ATC), located on its headquarters campus in Decatur, Ill. The company focuses on compressor technology including reciprocating, swash plate, wobble plate, variable compressor and air brake designs and is a supplier to the heavy-duty trucking, agriculture, construction, specialty vehicle and transport refrigeration markets, in many cases working directly with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). T/CCI expects the ATC to help it develop and optimize customer systems for efficiency, durability, quality and cost-effectiveness. It can test all components of heating systems, as well as air conditioning and battery cooling

components in electric vehicles. It can replicate climatic conditions ranging from -40º F to 120º F while vibration and thermal imaging equipment looks for potential hot spots in condensers. The company said the center can run 24 hours a day for a fraction of the cost in time and money for a wind tunnel, which would allow the team to provide a range of solutions for specific customer applications, even on limited-quantity partnerships. The center’s dual systems have 50 ATC can test all of the components of heating and cooling systems.

kW capability and can recreate realworld conditions without the power requirements, overhead and risk associated with wind tunnels. RISK MITIGATION

T/CCI knows the risks associated with wind tunnels. In early 2017, the company was faced with the need to replace its wind tunnel. “Throughout my career, running a wind tunnel has been my favorite job,” said Dick Ennis, director of Engineering,

adjustments to designs before the first product reaches the customer.” THE END OF THE TUNNEL

T/CCI, who has decades of operational experience. “It’s like your favorite ride at an amusement park and at the same time you’re recording a lot of data – there’s so much happening at the same time. It was a very quirky thing that happened in our wind tunnel.” As T/CCI planned for the replacement of its test facility in Decatur, Ennis and team thought they did not need a new wind tunnel at all. “There is an extensive amount of experience in my engineering group,” said Ennis. “We have over

100 years of compressor and HVAC experience combined, and between myself and my other engineers, we have over 50 years of wind tunnel experience. We actually used that experience to convince management that not replacing the wind tunnel was the logical path.” SYSTEM TESTS

Ennis and team figured they did not need to build another multimilliondollar climatic wind tunnel to support the development work T/CCI handled for its customers. “A wind tunnel is great for complete vehicle testing, but the specific markets that we’re involved with are basically HVAC, refrigeration and compressors. When we tested a bus or we tested Class 8 trucks or automobiles, we had to receive the vehicle in Decatur. There are so many extraneous parameters in a wind tunnel test that are not relevant to the HVAC or the refrigeration system on a semi-trailer.” Combined with T/CCI’s experience with HVAC testing and compressor development, the company said it expects the test center to bring even greater value to customers. “Testing in tunnels and over the road is really expensive — the vehicles themselves cost multimillion dollars just to build,” said T/CCI President Richard Demirjian. “With this one-of-a-kind center, we are able to test key measurables in a wide variety of conditions to see where potential problems could arise and make

“With the mindset that we did not need a wind tunnel, we set parameters to cover the requirements that our customers have,” said Ennis. “We set specifications that are very robust, and they encompass what we had with our original wind tunnel, but in a more focused way. The capital investment in ATC may not have been as high as the alternative, but the gains are highly significant because we’re able to take our customer’s products from anywhere in the world. We can install it in our system bench at the right elevation and climatic conditions that the customer requires.” In the past, complete prototypes would be transported to Decatur in time for its slot in the wind tunnel. Then it needed to be parked in the tunnel, set on the dynamometer and instrumented. Now, when the team changes certain parameters during a test, a task that would have taken hours in the old lab can be done in ten minutes with the new system. “ATC gives us flexibility,” said Ennis. “It doesn’t matter where you are in the world. If you have a new system developed and we’re applying our products to it, you send just the components to us and we can set it up and evaluate our product within your system. We will provide correlatable data up front in a very short time span.” By reducing the time that vehicles need to spend in a tunnel and road testing, T/CCI said the new lab will allow it to find problems, make changes and bring products to market more quickly and economically. The company has a global footprint with manufacturing locations in China, Argentina, India as well as the United States. n www.tccimfg.com

GLOBAL ENGINE NEWS IN BRIEF JCB POWER SYSTEMS has appointed a new distributor for its OEM engines in southeast Asia – the company’s first presence in the region. PRECISION POWER SERVICES THAILAND (PPS), headquartered in Chon Buri, will offer sales and service support to original equipment manufacturers, along with an additional engineering capability. PPS is already an approved dealer for the JCB Power Products generator range. JCB said the establishment of a physical presence in Thailand is a strategic expansion for the company, given the strength of the oil, gas and agriculture sectors. JCB Power Systems has also appointed a new dealer to sell and support its OEM engines in Australia. EIP Diesel, a New South Wales-based specialist in power solutions for construction, agriculture and marine applications, will now offer the full range of JCB Power Systems engines and provide engineering support. CATERPILLAR and researchers at the U.S. Dept. of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory worked together to develop a potential piston design for Cat engines that could improve fuel efficiency while reducing emissions. After running hundreds of high-fidelity simulations, the team was able to identify several promising designs for piston bowls and combustion chambers. One particularly promising piston bowl design improved the fuel-air mixing process. Researchers found that it could reduce fuel consumption by nearly 1% while reducing soot by up to 20%. Argonne researchers plan to publish the methodology of the program so other companies can use it to design new piston bowls.

AGCO POWER’S BIG MANUFACTURING UPGRADE

GCO announced it is progressing with significant upgrades to the manufacturing capabilities of its engine subsidiary, AGCO Power. The company said it initiated an investment of more than €100 million ($122 million) in 2019 to strengthen the manufacturing capabilities at its engine manufacturing site in Linnavuori, Finland. The company said a new and expanded AGCO Power is making significant upgrades to its engine plant in assembly plant and a logistics center have been Linnavuori, Finland. constructed in record time at Linnavuori, both of which are intended to help AGCO Power make its engine manufacturing process more modern and efficient. “Despite a tight schedule and the global COVID-19 pandemic, the investment project has progressed as planned,” said Juha Tervala, CEO of AGCO Power. “The investments at the Linnavuori plant enable a more efficient and streamlined production process.” Tervala added that “the investment paves way for the launch of production of a new engine family by the end of 2022.” Part of the investment was an extensive overhaul to the plant’s machining line. Once fully operational, the 100% automated machining line will enable flexible manufacturing of components in-house, reducing costs and increasing control over the production process, AGCO Power said. AGCO Power operates globally and manufactures engines at four plants: Linnavuori, Changzhou, China, Mogi das Cruzes, Brazil, and General Rodriguez, Argentina. The company, which turns 80 in 2022, said it has an overall engine capacity of over 100,000 engines per year. n

PACCAR’S NEW TRUCK DIESELS Along with the launch of its newest Kenworth and Peterbilt heavy-duty trucks, Paccar has also debuted its 2021 Paccar MX-11 and MX13 diesel engines. Both inline, six-cylinder engines, the MX-13 has bore and stroke dimensions of 130 x 160 mm and an overall displacement of 12.9 L, while the MX-11 displaces 10.8 L on bore and stroke dimensions of 123 x 152 mm. Both engines utilize redesigned internal components to enhance fuel economy – up Paccar’s new MX13 diesel engine.

The MX-11 can now be specified with a rating up to 445 hp and 1700 lb. ft. of torque at 900 rpm. The Paccar MX-13 is available up to 510 hp with at 1850 lb. ft. of torque at 1000 rpm. Other engine features Paccar cited include a multi-pulse fuel injection system, a smaller, more

Both engines incorporate an aftertreatment system consisting of a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system. An enhanced fully encapsulated engine wiring harness is designed to protect against the elements and to make fuel filter changes more efficient, the primary and secondary fuel filters are mounted on the engine instead of the chassis, with a 12 V fuel heater standard. n
