I wonder who China stole this idea from?
Chinese people are very bright but the history of collectivism in China has a tendency to remove the incentive for individual inventiveness.

Can I apply these innovations to my brace of ‘05 VW TDIs?

This is the ultimate efficiency possible for a heat engine. Temperatures are degrees above absolute zero.

I’m holding onto my diesel longer than I otherwise would because I can’t get a new one.

Fourteen percent better mileage for me would mean 52mpg on the Interstate.

"2024 World Congress on Internal Combustion Engines" in Tianjin, China
Were any American companies there? Or are they all too cowed by Brandon and have totally repudiated ICE?
"The engine’s economy improves with the base engine’s increased thermal efficiency."That's like saying "the efficiency goes up as the efficiency goes up."
"A heavy-duty tractor with a yearly mileage of 155,342 can save 12,000 gallons of diesel fuel...which results in an annual savings of almost $13,529."Coincidentally, Brandon announced a new tax on diesel long-haul trucks of $13,529 per year. Purely coincidence, I'm sure.

What was it when the diesel engine was invented? 20%?

Crap! I just ordered a 2024 GMC Sierra with the 3.0L Duramax diesel and now this comes along.

This sounds good but at what cost? Can this thermal efficiency be achieved while being mass producesd? I don’t think so. And yes, I think these ideas were stolen by the Chinese.

This assumes that none of the efficiencies become degraded under regular wear and tear.

It's easy to make a more efficient diesel engine.
It's almost impossible to do it while still meeting EPA particulate and NOx emissions standards.
Take away the Particulate filters and EGRs from today's diesel engines like the Ford Powerstroke or GM Duramax, and you gain 10-15% efficiency as well as increasing reliability by getting rid of failure points like a plugged EGR cooler that kills engines.

..can save about 12,000 gallons of diesel fuel thanks to this technology. This results in an annual savings of almost $13,529 (98,000 yuan) for the owner, given the market price of diesel fuel at $1.08 (7.8 yuan) per liter.
Jijo Journalist needs to learn a bit about conversions. It saves about $4 per gallon or almost $50g a year.
