The dissertation deals with the issues of improvement of fuel consumption efficiency and environmental indices of operating automobile engines by means of the adjustable advance spark angle optimization using gasolines with bioethanol additives. Bed tests have been performed on the MeMZ-245 engine to identify the impact of the adjustable advance spark angle on the key performance indicators of the engine running on gasolines with bioethanol additives. The mathematical model has been refined of the ZAZ-1102 run in accordance with the European urban driving cycle to specify the optimal values of the adjustable advance spark angle and to study the impact of the operational factors on the engine performance when using gasolines with bioethanol additives. The model adequacy has been defined, the deviation equaling 1.6%. Optimal values have been specified for the adjustable advance spark angle in the MeMZ-245 engine running on gasolines with 10% and 20% bioethanol supplements. Road tests have been performedon the Tavria ZAZ-1102 model vehicle, their results confirming the projections prepared on the basis of the mathematical model.
