Summary
The limited availability of fossil fuels and the steady increase in energy consumption, as well as increasing environmental pollution caused by emissions will lead to an increased demand for sustainable biofuels. As part of the Cluster of Excellence "Tailor-made fuels from biomass," an interdisciplinary approach is used to research the best possible fuel/combustion system combination. As a first step, the optimum fuel properties, such as a reduced cetane number or an increased oxygen content, for future partially homogeneous low-temperature combustion systems have to be identified...
Lectures from the International Vienna Motor Symposium can be ordered from the Austrian Society of Automotive Engineers (ÖVK). Lectures can only be purchased in the form of the complete conference documents, individual lectures are not available.
When placing an order, please note the year/name of the event (e.g. "45th International Vienna Motor Symposium 2024") for the further ordering process.
Members of the Austrian Society of Automotive Engineers have access to all lectures of the International Vienna Motor Symposia.
