Heavy Vehicle Propulsion Materials Program: Progress and Highlights.

DE2002770959

Publication Date	2000
Personal Author	Johnson, D. R.; Diamond, S.
Page Count	14
Abstract	The Heavy Vehicle Propulsion Materials Program was begun in 1997 to support the enabling materials needs of the DOE Office of Heavy Vehicle Technologies (OHVT). The technical agenda for the program grew out of the technology roadmap for the OHVT and includes efforts in materials for: fuel systems, exhaust aftertreatment, valve train, air handling, structural components, electrochemical propulsion, natural gas storage, and thermal management. A five-year program plan was written in early 2000, following a stakeholders workshop. The technical issues and planned and ongoing projects are discussed. Brief summaries of several technical highlights are given.
Keywords	Diesel engines Heavy trucks Materials tests Propulsion systems Natural gas Exhaust systems Fuel systems Temperature control
