Award given to an acknowledgment of the success of Mazda Mazda improvement in the efficiency of internal combustion. Mazda engine development is expected to remain a major source of energy in future cars. MAZDA Motor Corporation managed to get the highest award at the event in New Japan Society for Promotion of Machine Industry (JSPMI) Award of the 9th to the development of the Mazda SKYACTIV-G engine technology proved capable of producing very high compression ratio.
Award from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry Japan is attributed to the research, development, and commercialization undertaken a variety of organizations, such as companies, universities, and research institutions for development and growth of machine industry in Japan.
SKYACTIV-G engine that carried the Mazda were able to achieve the highest compression ratio in the world for gasoline-based engines are mass produced, which is 14,0:1. Ratio resulted in fuel savings and increase the engine power by 15 percent compared to the machines that exist today.
SKYACTIV-G engine already used on the newer models that came out in 2011 and was able to produce good fuel economy and responsive performance. To achieve high compression ratio gasoline engine is very difficult because it generally tends to make the engine knocking (ngelitik).
Mazda had recently found that the oxidation reaction occurs at low temperature before the engine is running, when the compression ratio is at a high point. The reaction then results in a reduction knocking and more power.
By utilizing this reaction, Mazda has developed an engine SKYACTIV-G. This machine also brings some new combustion technologies, such as piston cavity is designed to support the level of the ideal combustion and multi-hole injector that allows the fuel-injection appropriately.
