Abstract
A method of operating an engine assembly receiving fuel, including admitting atmospheric air at a temperature Tthrough an inlet of a compressor having a pressure ratio of PR, compressing the air in the compressor, cooling the compressed air from the compressor through an intercooler to cool the air from a temperature Tto a temperature T, delivering the cooled compressed air from the intercooler to an inlet of an intermittent internal combustion engine having an effective volumetric compression ratio r, and further compressing the air in the intermittent internal combustion engine before igniting the fuel, where An engine assembly is also discussed.
