With production and planning for new electric vehicles gaining momentum worldwide, this book – the second in a series of five volumes on this subject – provides engineers and researchers with perspectives on the most current and innovative developments regarding electric and hybrid-electric vehicle technology, design considerations, and components.This book features 15 SAE technical papers, published from 2008 through 2010, that provide an overview of research on electric vehicle batteries. Topics include:

The lube oil filter becomes an integral part of the engine lubrication system and is subjected to variations in operating conditions that are difficult to duplicate. However, with the equipment and procedures set forth in this test code, comparisons with effective filters for “in service” applications can be made with a high degree of confidence.

This lubrication oil filter test code is to provide means for evaluating the performance characteristics of full-flow oil filters on bench equipment. This combined with data collected from in-service applications may be used for establishing standards or performance goals for filters tested in this manner.

Sections include:

• Normative Reference
• Accuracy of Measuring Instruments and Test Conditions
• Resistance to Flow
• Filter Capacity and Containment Removal Characteristics of Full-Flow Filters
• Single Pass Particle Retention Capability Test
• Media Migration Test
• Collapse Test for Lube Oil Elements
• Inlet and Outlet Anti-Drain Valve Test
• Ability to Meet Environmental Conditions
• Installation and Removal
• Mechanical Tests
• Relief Valve Performance

Opposed Piston Engines: Evolution, Use, and Future Applications explores the opposed piston (OP) engine, a model of power and simplicity, and provides the first comprehensive description of most opposed piston (OP) engines from 1887 to 2006. Design and performance details of the major types of OP engines in stationary, ground, marine, and aviation applications are explored and their evolution traced.

The OP engine has set enviable and leading-edge standards for power/weight refinement, fuel tolerance, fuel efficiency, package space, and manufacturing simplicity. For these reasons, the OP concept still remains of interest for outstanding power and package density, simplicity, and reliability; e.g., aviation and certain military transport requirements.

Using material from historic and unpublished internal research reports, the authors present the rationale for OP engines, their diverse architecture, detailed design aspects, performance data, manufacturing details, and leading engineers and applications. Comparisons to four-stroke and competitor engines are made, supporting the case for reconsidering OP engines for certain applications.

Topics include:

The history of OP engines
Aeronautical
Automotive
Military
Marine
Unusual OP engines
Comparison between 2 and 4 stroke engines
The future of OP engines
and more
