Exhibition Review | Significant Achievements in New Energy Power: 13 Products of Yuchai Machinery Debut at the Internal Combustion Engine Exhibition

From October 11th to 13th, the 23rd China International Internal Combustion Engine and Power Expo (hereinafter referred to as the "Internal Combustion Engine Exhibition") officially kicked off at the Yichuang International Convention and Exhibition Center in Beijing. The theme of this exhibition is "Power Changes the World", aiming to build a cooperation and exchange platform for the internal combustion engine industry, enhance the brand influence of enterprises, and promote innovation and green development of the entire internal combustion engine industry chain.

As a barometer of the internal combustion engine industry, various engine companies have always tried their best at internal combustion engine conferences, hoping to take the lead in this highly anticipated head-on confrontation. Yuchai Machinery, as a leader in the domestic power market, once again showcased its strong lineup of 13 exhibits at the Internal Combustion Engine Exhibition. Its products include diesel, natural gas, hybrid power, and fuel cell systems, demonstrating Yuchai's strong capabilities.


High tech Yuchai brings 6 traditional powertrains

Yuchai's engine products cover various markets such as medium and heavy trucks, light trucks, buses, new energy, natural gas, and construction machinery. It is one of the important engine providers in China's commercial vehicles, construction machinery, and other fields. At this internal combustion engine exhibition, Yuchai has put on a grand display, showcasing a total of 13 products.


The products exhibited by Yuchai this time cover two exhibition areas: traditional power and new energy power. The traditional power exhibits include four diesel engines represented by YCK16, YCY25, YCK09L, and YCS07L, as well as two natural gas engines, YCK14N and YCK16N.

Among them, the YCK09L and YCY25 diesel engines exhibited this time are both Yuchai National 62 generation products, which can fully meet the four stage fuel consumption standards.

The YCK09L series diesel engine, as a new generation cost-effective 9-liter model of Yuchai, is mainly used in various application scenarios such as dump trucks, cranes, mixer trucks, port tractors, and 12 meter level tourist buses. It has a rated power of up to 400 horsepower and a maximum torque of 2000 Newton meters. The engine adopts an efficient SCR route, which improves thermal efficiency while reducing fuel consumption to 179g/(kWh). Its engine weighs more than 200 kilograms lighter than its competitors, giving users more peace of mind when using it.


YCY25 is mainly used in blue brand trucks, special vehicles, dump trucks, 6-7 meter highway buses, and 5-8 meter school buses. The power coverage range of this model is 150-180 horsepower, with advantages such as energy saving, high efficiency, super strong power, reliability and durability, comfort and worry free, and long-term maintenance. The Y25 model applies new low heat transfer combustion technology and crankshaft offset technology, low friction attachments, and low pump loss design matching technology, combined with an efficient mixed flow turbocharging system, resulting in a minimum fuel consumption of 3% lower than competitors.


YCK14N product is a natural gas engine recently promoted by Yuchai. The engine has a power coverage of 520-540 horsepower, and by adopting advanced technologies such as the TOP-DOWN cooling system, the industry's highest tensile strength cylinder head material, etc., the reliability of the product has been greatly improved by 50%. While maintaining high reliability, it also has the lowest gas consumption performance in the industry, with an average gas consumption 6% lower than competitors per 100 kilometers. Based on an annual mileage of 200000 kilometers, it can save nearly 20000 yuan in fuel costs.


The YCK16N natural gas engine, developed based on the K15N platform, has a universal rate of over 90% and is suitable for applications such as long-distance trunk logistics transportation and large-scale transportation. The engine has a displacement of 15.5L, a power coverage range of 600-640 horsepower, a maximum torque of 2800 Nm, and a minimum air consumption of ≤ 179g/kwh, which is 3% lower than competitors. The YCK16N engine not only has strong power and fast response, but also can travel 100000 kilometers without adding oil.

Yuchai fully lays out in the field of new energy power

From the exhibits at this exhibition, it can also be seen that Yuchai attaches great importance to the field of new energy power. The new energy power products exhibited include China's first commercial vehicle hydrogen engine K05H, the largest displacement methanol engine YCK15M in China, leading fuel cell systems in durability and safety, the highest specific power pure electric heavy-duty truck drive system in China, eCVT hybrid power system, extended range power system, etc.

It is worth mentioning that the four new energy power systems exhibited are all from Yuchai Xinlan, a new energy company under Yuchai. In recent years, Yuchai Xinlan has accelerated its layout in new energy products, achieving product and technology layout in Beijing, Wuxi, Jiangsu, Nanning, Guangxi and other places, and promoting breakthroughs in core technologies of the hydrogen energy industry. At present, Yuchai Xinlan has developed and manufactured China's largest power range extender, the world's first power split plug-in hybrid, and the world's first hybrid electric drive continuously variable transmission powertrain (IE-POWER).

Among them, the YCFC125 commercial vehicle fuel cell system exhibited this time adheres to the design concept guided by application scenarios, meets the requirements of national hydrogen energy demonstration guidance technology, and achieves a 100% localization rate of components, with advantages such as long life, high efficiency, and excellent environmental adaptability. This product can be adapted to commercial vehicle models such as traction, cargo, dump, and passenger cars. It has a rated power of 125 kW, a peak power of 134 kW, a mass power density of 646W/kg, a service life of over 15000 hours, and a range of more than 500 kilometers.


YCFC60 is a brand new fuel cell system specially designed for public transportation, containerized cargo, cold chain, and light truck vehicles. Its rated power is greater than 60 kW, peak power is greater than 65 kW, rated efficiency exceeds 47%, and service life is greater than 20000 hours. By combining cutting-edge intelligent control technology and stack intelligent development technology, YCFC60 can provide a more economical, reliable, and safe choice for commercial vehicle fuel cell application solutions.


At this exhibition, Yuchai also brought its independently developed K05H hydrogen engine. This engine can be widely used in urban buses, coaches, and other fields. With the matching of range extender, its application scope can be further expanded to more vehicle models such as sanitation vehicles. The K05H hydrogen engine has a displacement of 5.13 liters, a rated power of 120 kilowatts, and a maximum torque of 660 Newton meters. In addition, its highest thermal efficiency reaches 42%, and its emission level meets the National VI standard.


conclusion

At this exhibition, Yuchai showcased a variety of products including diesel, natural gas, hybrid power, pure electric, and fuel cells. They have significant advantages in comfort, lightweight, reliability, and economy, fully demonstrating Yuchai's strong capabilities; At the same time, it also represents that Yuchai has the strength to compete with world-class brands on the international internal combustion engine industry stage.
