“…Along with the growing interest in global environmental issues, the automotive manufacturers are facing increasing challenges to reduce the gaseous emissions [1] coming from internal combustion engines as well as to meet the strict emission legislation year by year [2]. Despite the rapid growth of electric car sales in recent years, internal combustion engines will continue to be active until at least 2050, according to recent studies [3].…”

The current investigation describes in detail a mass flow oriented model for extrapolation of reduced mass flow and adiabatic efficiency of double entry radial inflow turbines under any unequal and partial flow admission conditions. The model is based on a novel approach, which proposes assimilating double entry turbines to two variable geometry turbines (VGTs) using the mass flow ratio ( MFR ) between the two entries as the discriminating parameter. With such an innovative approach, the model can extrapolate performance parameters to non-measured MFR s, blade-to-jet speed ratios, and reduced speeds. Therefore, the model can be used in a quasi-steady method for predicting double entry turbines performance instantaneously. The model was validated against a dataset from two different double entry turbine types: a twin-entry symmetrical turbine and a dual-volute asymmetrical turbine. Both were tested under steady flow conditions. The proposed model showed accurate results and a coherent set of fitting parameters with physical meaning, as discussed in this paper. The obtained parameters showed very similar figures for the aforementioned turbine types, which allows concluding that they are an adequate set of values for initializing the fitting procedure of any type of double entry radial turbine.

In today’s competitive business scenario, the Pivot in supply chain is Consumer satisfaction. This could be considered as the most important internal goal to achieve in order to be active and leader in the business environment. Along with this when value chain partner are focusing on customer satisfaction external factor like the environmental issue are also important to make the business model a sustainable. All these issues forces the manufacturer and rest value chain partner to become Agile in nature. The consumer is also part of this continuously changing innovative environment, which is mainly meant for them only and to a large extent for sustainability. These volatile and continuously changing environment may also effects consumer satisfaction level in some or other aspects while using the product and at the time of use end. The agility in Supply Chain may leads to a shorter product life cycle and forces the consumer to cope with the secondary car market within few years of purchase. Also the role of government and dealer outlets regarding environmental effects like NGT legislatives and support of dealers for creating awareness among consumer regarding pollution control is also one of the key factors. This study focus on these factors that have impact on the satisfaction level of end-user .An effort is made to check the perceived effect of these factors on consumer, at the same time study suggest how these factors can be modulated to lower extent with the aid of eco-leasing business model in context of Indian car market.

“…The first is an information asymmetry problem. In the EU, consumers obtain information about the level of a car's emissions through CO 2 labels, which are based on laboratory measurements (Haq and Weiss 2016). It is becoming increasingly apparent that real-world emissions of cars deviate from lab-tested emissions and that this gap has increased over time (Fontaras et al 2017), partly caused by cheating behaviour on the emission measurements by some car manufacturers (Paton 2015).…”

Passenger car transportation is a major contributor to global carbon emissions. Despite a range of policy measures, the European passenger car fleet remains largely running on fossil fuels. It is questionable whether the lack of emission reductions can be attributed to a lack of consumer preferences for low-emission cars because consumers may have imperfect information about cars' emissions and the availability of clean cars remains limited. This paper investigates the preferences of consumers for emission reductions in passenger car transport. We estimate the willingness to pay of passenger car buyers for CO 2 emission reductions by means of a choice experiment amongst a sample of 1471 individuals that represents the Dutch adult population with the intention to buy a car. The main results are that the mean willingness to pay for emission reductions equals €199 per tonne, and that the majority of individuals is willing to pay more than the current market premium for two selected hybrid types. These results suggest there is a large market potential for emission reductions in passenger car transport. Our findings imply that providing consumers with trustworthy information can be considered a key policy tool for achieving emission reductions in passenger car transport.
