Abstract

Recent developments of high performance structural ceramics have given a new impetus for the advancement of heat engines. The insulated adiabatic turbocompound Diesel engine, without a cooling system, has emerged as one of the more promising engine concepts for future transportation. This engine concept utilizes ceramic materials internally. Insulating materials in the form of monolithic ceramics have improved significantly, but problems in processing, quality control, and cost will retard its adoption. Therefore, thermal barrier coatings are expected to be employed before the monolithic coatings. The adiabatic Diesel engine with its higher thermal efficiency and multifuel capability presents an energy saving engine with favorable technoeconomics in the transportation sector.
