Abstract(E)Future demands for CO2 reduction generate huge challenges for engine and vehicle OEMs. The mainstream solution is to downsize the engines either by reducing the displacement, by reducing the number of cylinders or by deactivating some of the cylinders in part load operation. Most of these approaches lead to a significant change of the sound experience compared to current state of the art internal combustion engines. This paper describes influences of downsizing on NVH as well as different approaches to generate a pleasant sound experience for downsized engines. Different options of downsizing and respective solutions for improving the sound feedback especially in the vehicle interior are demonstrated.

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.
