“In the [OP] 2-stroke engine the ratio of trapped air to fuel is

Inherent CO2 & NOx advantage “The opposed piston diesel engine had about 13-15% [lower CO2 emissions]…compared to a state of the art four-stroke diesel engine.”

“The efficiency advantages of the opposed piston two-stroke engine are mainly because of lower in-cylinder heat losses due to elimination of the cylinder head and lower surface area to volume ratio. A further advantage is related to…efficient uniflow scavenging.”

“Two stroke engines have leaner combustion, more optimal combustion phasing, lower BMEP, and potential for lower mass.”

20% higher, enabling a reduction of soot.”

“NOx emissions are expected to be lower, since the fresh charge is always diluted by burnt gas.”

“In the OP engine the Turbine Inlet Temperature is more than 100 degrees lower, an important advantage when adopting a variable geometry turbine.”

“The OP2S engine delivers the lowest net specific fuel consumption…due to a combination of the lowest indicated specific fuel consumption coupled to the lowest supercharger work.”
