  • Exhaust/Emissions Systems Overview Emissions Testing
    Exhaust/Emissions Systems Overview Below is an overview of this system's operation Emissions Testing Many states require emissions tests on vehicles. This means that you drive to a facility where the test people take a sample of your emissions and run it through some analysis. The results are printed,and you pass or fail depending on the percentage of toxic emissions that turn up in your car's sample. The only way to "study" or prepare for this test is to take good care of your car, including its emission system. If you use preventative maintenance, and keep your car tuned properly, you will pass. If you tamper with your emissions system, you will not pass. You can have your car checked independently before your emissions test if you want to resolve problems before going to the emissions test station. One other good thing to do is to save your printouts from the test from year to year. If you compare them, you will be able to monitor your car (if its score is getting worse) and catch any problems before the emissions people catch you. The Emission Control System The purpose of the emission control system is just that; it controls the emissions and exhaust from your vehicle. The idea is to turn the harmful gases your car manufactures into harmless ones that don't ruin the environment, or us. Some of the problem gases are: • hydrocarbons (unburned) • carbon monoxide • carbon dioxide • nitrogen oxides • sulfur dioxide • phosphorus • lead and other metals To help control these substances, we (along with federal regulations) have made changes in our gasoline to eliminate them.

  • GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS for ALL THROTTLE PLATE KITS Installation Instructions
    GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL THROTTLE PLATE KITS Installation Instructions WARNING! These instructions must be read and fully understood before installation. If this manual is not fully understood, installation should not be attempted. GENERAL: These are basic general instructions to remove and install the throttle plates in any two or four barrel Holley carburetors. Since a four barrel carburetor was used in this instruction sheet, the same basic removal and installation steps apply to two barrels also. IMPORTANT NOTE: Before starting the actual work, go through a “dry” run with the throttle body and the instruction sheet. This will help you familiarize yourself and gain confidence with all the procedures. TOOLS AND MATERIAL REQUIRED FOR INSTALLATION Phillips screwdriver Standard screwdriver Vise Soft wood blocks Duct tape Fine/medium file Loctite Grade 290 “Duck Billed” tip vise grips Carburetor stand (or suitable holding fixture) Access to compressed air REMOVAL OF THROTTLE BODY: 1. Place carburetor on its side to remove the throttle body screws. On vacuum secondary four barrels, it will be necessary to remove the “C” clip which holds the vacuum diaphragm stem onto the secondary throttle shaft. See Figure 1. 2. Place all screws, clips, and links to the side for later installation. FIGURE 1 FIGURE 2 Page 1 FIGURE 3 Front Side of Primary Throttle Bores shown FIGURE 4 REMOVAL OF OLD THROTTLE PLATES 1. Place the throttle body on a carburetor stand. See Figure 2. RECOMMENDATION: When servicing a carburetor off the vehicle it is recommended to place it in a suitable holding fixture. This helps prevent damage to the machined surfaces of the throttle body.

Issaquah, WA [email protected] ASHRAE TC 2.6 Engine Exhaust Noise Control nReactive Mufflers nAbsorptive Silencers nReactive/Absorptive Mufflers nTail Pipe Design nTuned Resonators nProject Examples The above are the subjects that we will discuss. Some data will also be presented from field tests: One an example of a project failure and the other a big success. ASHRAE TC 2.6 Engine Exhaust Considerations The exhaust system of a generator has several inherent design problems that must be considered. These characteristics impose severe limitations on what can be done to silence the engine exhaust noise: nVery High Noise (100 to 120 dBA @ 1 m) o nHigh Temperatures (950 to 1050 F) nHigh Velocities (5,000 to 15,000 fpm) nCombustion By-Products (soot & corrosion) nPipe Thermal Expansion ASHRAE TC 2.6 Performance Characteristics n Insertion Loss (dB) depends on design, size and frequency n Pressure Drop (inches H2O or Hg) depends on velocity & design n Self-Generated Noise (dB ref. 1 picowatt) depends on velocity & design Insertion loss (IL) is defined as the reduction of noise level that occurs when a silencing element is inserted into the system. Because engines generate strong tonal components, the IL of any one muffler will not be the same with different engines, different loads, or different piping configurations. Pressure drop is more predictable, however. Specific data on self noise is generally not available. ASHRAE TC 2.6 Engine exhaust noise varies significantly with loading. Typically the noise level at full load is about 10 dB higher than the no-load condition.

  • Carbureted Fuel Pressure Regulators TB
    Aeromotive, Inc. Technical Bulletin #201 From: Aeromotive Technical Department Date: 12/8/14 Re: Carbureted Fuel Pressure Regulators, Vacuum and Boost Reference: Aeromotive Carbureted Bypass Regulators: Why and how to use vacuum and boost reference. All Aeromotive, Carburetor Bypass are designed to allow the regulated fuel pressure to be vacuum or boost referenced on a 1:1 ratio with PSI. The purpose of the boost reference feature is to ensure fuel pressure at the inlet of the needle-and-seat rises with boost, offsetting any air pressure opposing fuel flow at the outlet of the needle and seat, in the float bowl itself. For “blow through” carbureted engines, where air is pushed or “blown” through the carburetor from a turbo or centrifugal supercharger, the carburetor and float bowls are pressurized, along with the intake. Pressure enters the float bowls via the vent tubes. As boost pressure builds in the intake, it also builds in the bowls, offsetting the pressure working to push fuel in through the needle and seat. Rising boost can act to slow or even stop fuel from entering the bowl, allowing it to run empty. By connecting the boost reference port on the regulator to the hat or carburetor box, the regulator will raise fuel pressure 1:1 with boost pressure, offsetting the rising air pressure and ensuring fuel continues to fill the bowl and feed the engine. The boost reference line on a blow through engine should reference positive pressure only (that is boost), not vacuum, and be connected to the carburetor box or hat rather than the intake manifold.

The public review is held at Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan, Brinellvägen 83, room B319 Gladan, 25th of January 2013 at 10:00. Abstract Due to growing concerns regarding global energy security and environmental sustainability it is becoming increasingly important to increase the energy efficiency of the transport sector. The internal combustion engine will probably continue to be the main propulsion system for road transportation for many years to come. Hence, much effort must be put in reducing the fuel consumption of the internal combustion engine to prolong a future decline in fossil fuel production and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Turbocharging and variable valve actuation applied to any engine has shown great benefits to engine efficiency and performance. However, using a turbocharger on an engine gives some drawbacks. In an attempt to solve some of these issues and increase engine efficiency further this thesis deals with the investigation of a novel gas exchange concept called divided exhaust period (DEP).
