In 1997, a group called the Ad Hoc Compression Ignition Direct Injection (CIDI) Engine Research Group began a research program intended to identify the benefits of advanced diesel fuel formulations in reducing emissions of oxides of nitrogen and particulates emitted by modern compression ignition engines. The group consisted of the three auto companies that made up the Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles (DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors), several major oil companies (Arco, BP Amoco, ExxonMobil, Shell), and the Department of Energy. Each auto company selected one of their own engines to evaluate in the program. All of the engines were modern, turbocharged, and equipped with direct injection, common rail, fuel delivery systems. The attached report was prepared for the Advanced Vehicles/ Fuels/ Lubricants (AVFL) Committee of the CRC by Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), the contractor for the subject research program. This Executive Summary has been prepared by the members of the AVFL Committee to explain the purpose of the research program, to explain the choice of fuels and tests used in the study, and to provide the Committees interpretation of the results.
