Abstract(E)Recently, EU StageV emissions regulations have been enforced in the European market since 2019, increasing environmental requirements for diesel engines. EU StageV has been tightened compared to EPA Tier4 regulation, which demand PM (Particulate Matter) reduction and added new PN (Particle Number) regulations.
Until the previous regulation EU Stage IIIA, the power category of 19kW or more and less than 37 kW had adopted mechanical IDI (Indirect-Injection). This mechanical engine is characterized by compactness and lightweight because of simple structure. Therefore, this engine is appreciated by customer with easy installation. On the other hand, to achieve EU StageV, it is necessary to adopt the electronic direct injection common rail system with more precise fuel injection and advanced exhaust gas aftertreatment device.
The newly developed V1505-CR-T engine is not only small displacement of 1.5L, but also four-cylinders, and it is low vibration in addition compactness and lightweight. However, the bore of this engine is smaller than other similar displacements, because it is the unique four-cylinders. It was modified to DI (Direct-Injection) for the first time at this displacement, and common rail system was adopted. By applying Center-Direct-Injection-System, in which the injectors are arranged vertically at the center of combustion chamber, it was possible to inject fuel uniformly. Therefore, air and fuel are easily mixed even in small bore and small combustion chamber. Furthermore, Intake and Exhaust system were changed from two valves to four valves to intake more air. Regarding the concern that these modifications may increase engine dimensions, the exhaust emissions reduction device was specially designed, and we realized compactness and lightweight by new built-in arrangements such as the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) gas route into cylinder-head and the oil separator for the breather into cylinder head cover.
In this article, we introduce techniques to comply with EU StageV on small bore engine and small combustion chamber.

How to use the search box

You can enter up to 5 search conditions. The number of search boxes can be increased or decreased with the "+" and "-" buttons on the right.
If you enter multiple words separated by spaces in one search box, the data that "contains all" of the entered words will be searched (AND search).
Example) X (space) Y → "X and Y (including)"

How to use "AND" and "OR" pull-down

If "AND" is specified, the "contains both" data of the phrase entered in the previous and next search boxes will be searched. If you specify "OR", the data that "contains" any of the words entered in the search boxes before and after is searched.
Example) X AND Y → "X and Y (including)"  X OR Z → "X or Z (including)"
If AND and OR searches are mixed, OR search has priority.
Example) X AND Y OR Z → X AND (Y OR Z)
If AND search and multiple OR search are mixed, OR search has priority.
Example) W AND X OR Y OR Z → W AND (X OR Y OR Z)

How to use the search filters

Use the "search filters" when you want to narrow down the search results, such as when there are too many search results. If you check each item, the search results will be narrowed down to only the data that includes that item.
The number in "()" after each item is the number of data that includes that item.
