SYSTEM FOR AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH AN ELECTRIC TORQUE ASSIST

Embodiments herein provide a system and method for using an Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) for electric torque assistance on specific strokes of a 2-stroke or 4-stroke Internal Combustion (IC) engine () with reduced inertial mass than a conventional inertial mass loaded IC engine in order to overcome a speed variation problem caused by the engine's lower inertia at low and idle speeds and thus meeting a crankshaft speed shortfall. Furthermore, enabling the 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines to run on a lean fuel-air mixture improves emissions at low and idling speeds, and leads to better IC engine emission control.
