In the race of Honda Eco Mileage Challenge (HEMC), with the engine from the organizing committee, the Binhai Team makes different kinds of methods and strategy to reduce fuel consumption of eco-car. In this study, the engine 1-D simulation model is built in software GT-Power and 3-D model is made in UG. With GT-Power the engine intake and exhaust system and compression ratio are optimized and analyzed. In order to realize light weight, several parts of the engine are cut off. Besides, electrical control system is calibrated. Lubrication and starting system are adjusted to adapt to the race.
