5500 rpm, no less than 200+ hours, the Blue Whale engine challenges the Guinness record

challenged the "Longest Live Video Broadcasting" Guinness World Record and "revealed" the true power of the Blue Whale NE 1.5T high pressure direct injection engine.

Friends who are familiar with Changan Automobile must remember. In 2018, 55 Changan Automobiles successfully challenged the Guinness World Record-"the largest self-driving car parade", becoming the world's first car brand to successfully set the record; in 2019, 2009 Changan Automobile employees formed the Changan CS75PLUS car graphics , Recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as "the car with the most people."

In 2020, Changan Automobile once again launched an impact on the world record, this time with a new challenge goal.

From December 16th to 25th, "Whale Moves the World" Changan Automobile's Blue Whale engine challenged the Guinness World Record title "Longest Live Video Broadcast" held at Chongqing Changan Automobile Global R&D Center. Through online live broadcast, the Blue Whale NE 1.5T high-pressure direct-injection engine was tested for no less than 200+ hours. During the test, the engine speed has always been maintained above 5500 rpm, which poses severe challenges to the reliability and stability of the engine.

In June 2019, Blue Whale Power was officially released as a family. Blue Whale power includes Blue Whale engine and Blue Whale transmission, as well as Blue Whale oil-electric hybrid drive that embraces electrification. Blue Whale engines include medium-displacement high-performance engines (that is, Blue Whale 2.0T), Blue Whale NE medium and small displacement high-performance engine platforms (Blue Whale 1.4T, Blue Whale 1.5T, etc.); Blue Whale transmission includes Blue Whale 7-speed Wet DCT transmission and 6-speed Blue Whale hybrid transmission share the common characteristics of high efficiency transmission and industry-leading high reliability; Blue Whale hybrid electric drive includes the first highly integrated P2 hybrid system in China-Blue Whale 6-speed hybrid The system is compatible with PHEV and HEV.

What is the Blue Whale NE power platform? The

Blue Whale NE power platform is a brand new power platform for the next generation of emission and fuel consumption regulations and standards built by Changan Automobile with global resources, based on leading modular top-level design, and is compatible with 48V, HEV, PHEV and REEV designs. , Firmly promote the "Shangri-La" plan. The

Blue Whale NE power platform is positioned as the first power modular platform for OEMs in China, filling the gap in the development of China's automotive platform. Based on the new modular engine research and development platform, it meets the National VI B emission regulations and has the most advanced technology content and power output of the same level in the world. The platform design is compatible with 1.0-1.8L displacement, the generalization rate is as high as 98%, and the production line automation rate and intelligence rate have reached the international advanced level.

adopts a rare dual-exit integrated exhaust manifold of the same level, which effectively reduces engine exhaust interference, enhances exhaust pulse, and improves power output; compared with the previous generation series, it is 14kg lighter, 28mm shorter in length, and 30 Nm higher in torque. It reaches 200 Nm/L; the highest thermal efficiency is astonishing 40%, which has obvious advantages. What are the highlights of the

Blue Whale NE 1.5T high-pressure direct injection engine

?

Blue Whale NE 1.5T high-pressure direct-injection engine perfectly interprets the leading R&D concept of “strength, quietness and cleanliness”. The maximum power is 132kw, and the maximum torque of 1250rpm (1250-3500rpm) can output up to 300N•m, meeting the national VI b emission , Taking into account power and energy conservation and environmental protection.

adopts a rare dual-outlet integrated exhaust manifold of the same level, which effectively reduces engine exhaust interference, enhances exhaust pulse, and improves power output; at the same time, the cooling water jacket surrounding the IEM effectively increases the warm-up speed and heat-up exhaust temperature. Improve combustion efficiency; use dual-scroll tube electronically controlled turbocharging to effectively reduce turbo lag, reaching a peak torque of 300N•m at 1250r/min; use Schaeffler smart cam phase modulation system Smart phaser to achieve faster adjustment Response speed: Compared with ordinary products, the phase response speed is increased by 175%, providing fast power response.

’s original “AGILE agile” air-guided high-efficiency ultra-clean combustion system, 350bar high-pressure atomized fuel and the air flow formed by the high tumble air passage are perfectly matched to achieve uniform and fast mixing in the cylinderHigh-speed combustion; intelligent lubrication system that can precisely control the oil supply to achieve ultra-low friction, and single-stage catalysis can meet the National VI b emission standard.

integrates the world-class NVH control technology, which effectively reduces the resonance, knock and roar of the entire transmission system. The idling sound pressure level is as low as 58.9dB(A), and the cockpit achieves deep-sea level silence; when the power bursts, it provides the driver with a dynamic and pure acceleration sound quality.

is not only that, the Blue Whale NE power platform is simultaneously tested and developed by the Chongqing headquarters and the UK center, and has completed more than 300 system-level and more than 2,000 component-level test verifications. It has experienced more than 25,000 hours The reliability of the test bench is verified, and the accumulated road mileage of the whole vehicle exceeds 1.4 million kilometers, ensuring the high quality of the NE engine. For this reason, it also laid a good foundation for the Guinness record of "the longest live video broadcast". How does

market perform?

introduced so much "hard-core knowledge" about the Blue Whale NE power platform, have you already been excited? Of course, you can also buy models with this power platform now.

Blue Whale NE power platform has launched 1.4T and 1.5T engines. In 2019, the Blue Whale NE 1.4T high-pressure direct-injection engine passed many tests and finally won the title of “China Heart”'s top ten engines in 2019. In 2020, the "China Heart" 2020 Top Ten Engine Awards will be awarded again. The Blue Whale NE 1.5T high-pressure direct injection engine wins the "China Heart" 2020 Top Ten Engine Awards with its advanced technology and excellent quality. So far, Changan Automobile has won the award for 6 years!
