International Congress : SIA Powertrain - Rouen 2016

1 & 2 June 2016
Rouen

Introduction

bandeau_SIA POWERTRAIN_2016

Dear participant,

The worldwide demand for lower emissions and for better fuel efficiency is dominating powertrain development activity today, with a focus on continuous improvements to the powertrain design, the use of alternative fuels and hybridization. The modern compression ignition engine is providing an efficient solution to these challenges and to changing mobility requirements, not only for passenger cars but also for industrial needs and goods transportation in fast-growing worldwide mega cities. With low CO2 emissions, the compression ignition engine is still a cost-effective and popular solution for many users and will be a key contributor to further reducing CO2 emissions beyond 2021.

The upcoming European Euro6c emissions regulation intends to introduce real driving emissions requiring new engineering efforts in light-duty powertrain product development, engine testing and vehicle calibrations. The challenge of this real driving emissions will be mainly to control emissions over the whole operating range of the vehicle at an affordable cost and without compromising fuel economy. For heavy-duty applications, the CO2 emissions regulation under preparation will also be the major driver for innovation in powertrain for both freight and passenger transport. The Clean Compression Ignition Engine Conference to be held in Rouen, France 1-2 June 2016, aims at giving powertrain developers and researchers the opportunity to get an overall picture of state-of-the-art technologies and anticipate future challenges and actions.

To enhance the organization of SIA powertrain conferences, the organizing committee has undertaken changes since last year by proposing an annual powertrain conference each spring, focusing alternatively on spark ignition in Versailles and on compression ignition in Rouen. The first edition of the conference in Versailles in May of this year was a great success with more than 400 participants, 50 lectures and 30 exhibitors offering numerous networking opportunities. In addition to the previous conference topics on light-duty engine technologies, the Rouen 2016 Compression Ignition Engine Conference will include new themes on engines for on- and off-highway commercial vehicles.

This unique worldwide event focused on compression ignition engine technology, and potential development synergies between passenger cars and commercial vehicle powertrain technologies, will provide attendees with opportunities for discussions with experts and leaders in this area. This event will cover global issues and solutions related to technology, business processes and the challenges facing the industry today and tomorrow.

We look forward to seeing you in Rouen either as a conference speaker, exhibitor or attendee.

Yours sincerely,

Dr Noureddine Guerrassi, Chief Engineer Advanced Injection & Combustion Engineering - Delphi Automotive

TECHNICAL VISITS → 31 MAY

		14:00 and 15:00 > CERTAM (Aerothermic and Internal Combustion Engine Technological Research Centre) CERTAM activity gathers advisory and expertise as well as engine testing (for light and heavy duty applications) in our dynamic test cells or on industrial site in the fields of: • Metrology of fuel consumption and CO2 emission on dynamic conditions (NEDC, WLTC,…). • Engine emission characterization (regulated and unregulated). • Exhaust post-treatment assessment (DPF, SCR, NOx trapping,…). • Fuel/Air mixture preparation and internal aerodynamic by laser metrology. • Standard metrology (T, P, blow-by, stability,…). • Friction. • Metrology of particle (SMPS, ELPI, TEOM, PCS 2010…) and Air quality. • Toxicological pollutant emission assessment. • Prototypes testing.


		14:00 > RENAULT CLÉON PLANT Cléon works for the Renault-Nissan Alliance and has 37 customer sites worldwide. A total 60% of its output is for Renault, and 40% for other brands (Nissan, Dacia, Renault Samsung Motors, Infiniti, Daimler and Opel). The site’s activity is based on Gazoline and Diesel engine and gearboxe families, including die casting. Since 2015, the plant is proud to produce the R240 engine, the Electric Powertrain 100% Renault In 2015, the site manufactured more than one million of these products.

Groupe PSA // Senior Vice President, Powertrain & Chassis Engineering

After graduating from two leading French institutes: INSA (Institut National des Sciences Appliqués) and IFP School (1986), Alain Raposo joined Renault in 1987, where he held various positions in Powertrain Design and Technology Division before moving, in 2005, to Nissan in Japan where he was appointed Senior Manager in charge of lower base engine structure development.

In 2009, he returned to Renault as Vice President, Powertrain Design and Technology Development then, in 2012, he became VP in charge of Alliance Powertrain Planning office, coordinating Renault-Nissan powertrain strategy. In 2014 he became Alliance Global VP in charge of Renault-Nissan Powertrain and EV Engineering.

In 2017 he joined PSA Groupe, in charge of EV Programs and Strategy. He was appointed to his current position at the PSA Groupe, Engineering Division, in April 2018.
