ICVT has over 15 years of experience in the field of automotive exhaust purification. Its main focus is on modeling and simulation of EAT systems, based upon a detailed experimental analysis of EAT conversion kinetics in isothermal flat-bed reactors. Both TWC and NSC (NOx storage cat) systems have been studied extensively. Recently ICVT has proposed and propagated heat-integrated EAT systems with exhaust heat exchange and separate (catalytic) burners. First experimental results presented show that such systems can lead to substantial fuel savings compared to conventional add-on solutions.

NumberShort NameLegal nameCountry31OPELAdam OPEL GmbHDE

Opel, one of Europe痴 largest automakers, was founded 1862 in Rsselsheim, Germany. The company with its headquarters in Rsselsheim operates 13 plants in eight countries and employs around 47,000 people (as of December 2009). Opel and its sister brand in the U.K., Vauxhall, sell vehicles in more than 35 markets in Europe. Opel vehicles are characterized by their outstanding design, innovative technologies and environmental friendliness. In 2009 the company sold 1.2 million vehicles in Europe.

As of October 1st 2009, after transition of GMPT-G personnel to Opel, consequently all development activities are carried out by Opel. These activities comprise engine dyno development / calibration of CNG lean burn combustion in order to provide an initial "exhaust gas generator" to support the development of the exhaust gas aftertreatment system. Accompanying CFD simulation to evaluate mixture formation and preparation in the intake manifold and combustion chamber of a tumble based combustion system will be performed. Engine dyno tests to evaluate the CNG lean burn capabilities of such a tumble based combustion system with high turbulence will also be carried out.

Opel also performs CNG specific package design to integrate a 1.9l CNG engine (based on a 1,9l Diesel engine) into a demonstration vehicle (Opel Zafira) and generally supports CNG specific powertrain integration into the demonstration vehicle which will be built at FEV. An initial (engine) hardware integration study on a dummy vehicle will also be done at Opel to support the vehicle build / integration activities.

As mentioned above, part of the activities of OPEL  will be performed with the use of the facilities and material for the research work made available by its subsidiary GMPT-G (Third Party) that is the owner of the facilities - such as engine dynos -  used in the project and supplier of material and consumables and that will stay in the contract linked to Opel as third party. GMPT-G therefore is only active in the sense of providing dyno test facilities, material and consumables - no development work will be performed by GMPT-G (Third Party).
The main task where OPEL will be involved will be:

A3.1.3: Support to B1 regarding packaging, control and boundary conditions

A3.1.4: Based on the draft design of the powertrain a draft packaging design of the vehicle will be made;

A3.2.4: Package design of CNG engine and transmission into vehicle infrastructure.

A3.3.5: Set up functionalities for powertrain control
OPEL, as vehicle developer/ manufacturer, and GMPT-E, as engine and transmission developer/manufacturer contributing the respective powertrains, are together one of the market leaders for CNG vehicles in Europe. The engine and vehicle technology carriers for the planned project are based on these products.

GMPT-E is developing base engine systems and performing the powertrain integration and calibration work for GME vehicle brands - e.g. Opel, Vauxhall - in Europe. This includes functional development with regard to customer vehicle usage as well as fuel consumption optimization and exhaust emission calibration.


The key people involved in the project are Achim Kigstein, CE Gas Technology/Lead ACE L850 Europe, and Christian Hock At their disposal they have the support from the Opel / GMPT-E organization that can contribute with staff and expertise relevant to the project.
