The target engine is a DGEN 380 developed by the Price Induction company. The functional verification of the test bench was carried out using the developed test bench. An interface and interworking test between the test bench and the developed EECU was carried out. After establishing the verification test environments, the startup phase control logic of the developed EECU was verified using the real- time engine model which modeled the startup phase test data with SIMULINK. Finally, it was confirmed that the developed EECU can be used as a real-time engine model for the starting section of performance verification.

    ISSN: 2277-9655 [Allolkar* et al., 7(5): May, 2018] Impact Factor: 5.164 IC™ Value: 3.00 CODEN: IJESS7 IJESRT INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING SCIENCES & RESEARCH TECHNOLOGY SURVEY ON MULTI POINT FUEL INJECTION (MPFI) ENGINE Deepali Baban Allolkar*1, Arun Tigadi 2 & Vijay Rayar3 *1 Department of Electronics and Communication, KLE Dr. M S Sheshgiri College of Engineering and Technology, India. 2,3Assistant Professor, Department of Electronics and Communication, KLE Dr. M S Sheshgiri College of Engineering and Technology, India. DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1241426 ABSTRACT The Multi Point Fuel Injection (MPFI) is a system or method of injecting fuel into internal combustion engine through multi ports situated on intake valve of each cylinder. It delivers an exact quantity of fuel in each cylinder at the right time. The amount of air intake is decided by the car driver by pressing the gas pedal, depending on the speed requirement. The air mass flow sensor near throttle valve and the oxygen sensor in the exhaust sends signal to Electronic control unit (ECU). ECU determines the air fuel ratio required, hence the pulse width. Depending on the signal from ECU the injectors inject fuel right into the intake valve. Thus the multi-point fuel injection technology uses individual fuel injector for each cylinder, there is no gas wastage over time. It reduces the fuel consumption and makes the vehicle more efficient and economical. KEYWORDS: Multi point fuel injection (MPFI), Cylinder, Gas pedal, Throttle valve, Electronic control Unit (ECU). I. INTRODUCTION Petrol engines used carburetor for supplying the air fuel mixture in correct ratio but fuel injection replaced carburetors from the 1980s onward.

  • Closed Loop Engine Management System
    Information Sheet #105 CLOSED-LOOP CONTROL SYSTEMS ON GASEOUS GENERATORS Frequently the engine used to drive the generator in a standby or prime power generator system is a 4-stroke spark ignition (SI) engine. While many smaller portable generators use SI engines fueled by gasoline, the majority of SI engine driven generators above 10kW are fitted with SI engines fueled by gaseous fuel, either natural gas (NG), or liquid petroleum gas (LPG). The majority of gaseous powered SI engines within a generator system are frequently referred to as having a Closed-Loop Engine Control System. In understanding Buckeye Power Sales necessary maintenance required to maintain optimum operation and performance of an SI engine using a closed-loop system, it is Reliable Power Professionals Since 1947 important to be aware of all the components within the system, their functions, and the advantages a closed-loop system. 1.0 WHAT IS A CLOSED-LOOP SYSTEM: The term “loop” in a control system refers to the path taken through various components to obtain a desired output. Used in conjunction with the word “closed” it refers to sensors measuring actual output along the path against required output. The various outputs measured along the path, or loop, are referred to as feedback signals. In a closed- loop system, the feedback along the path constantly enables the engine control system to adjust and ensure the right output is maintained as variations in ambient temperature, load, altitude, and humidity influence combustion and required output. So, in brief, closed-loop systems employ sensors in the loop to constantly provide feedback so the ECU can adjust inputs to obtain the required output.

  • Design of Electronically Controlled Fuel Injection System for Carburetor Based Engine
    IJRET: International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology eISSN: 2319-1163 | pISSN: 2321-7308 DESIGN OF ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM FOR CARBURETOR BASED ENGINE 1 2 3 4 Abhishek Kumar , Abhijeet Kumar , Ujjwal Ashish , Ashok B 1B.Tech (EEE), 3rd year, VIT University, Vellore, India 2B.Tech (ECE), 3rd year, VIT University, Vellore, India 3B.Tech (EEE), 3rd year, VIT University, Vellore, India 4Assistant Professor, SMBS, VIT University, Vellore, India Abstract In the Modern world, automotive electronics play an important role in the manufacturing of any passenger car. Automotive electronics consists of advanced sensors, control units, and “mechatronic“actuator making it increasingly complex, networked vehicle systems. Electronic fuel injection (EFI) is the most common example of automotive electronics application in Powertrain. An EFI system is basically developed for the control of injection timing and fuel quantity for better fuel efficiency and power output. In this paper, we will explain various types of fuel injection system that are used most commonly nowadays and will also explain the various parameters considered during calculating,(using speed density method), base fuel quantity during runtime. We will explain the major difference between speed density method and alpha-n method and in the end, we will also show the MATLAB/Simulink model of fuel injection system for Single cylinder four stroke engine. Keywords: Air Fuel Ratio, Fuel Injection System, Speed Density Method, Engine Management System --------------------------------------------------------------------***---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. INTRODUCTION The primary difference between carburetors and fuel Engine management system (EMS) is an essential part of injection system is that fuel injection atomizes through a any vehicle, which controls and monitors the engine.

Typeset with LATEX 2ε Printed by LiU-Tryck, Linköping, Sweden 2014 i Abstract The torque response of the engine is important for the driving experience of a vehicle. In spark ignited engines, torque is proportional to the air flow into the cylinders. Controlling torque therefore implies controlling air flow. In modern turbocharged engines, the driver commands are interpreted by an electronic control unit that controls the engine through electromechanical and pneumatic actuators. Air flow to the intake manifold is controlled by an electronic throttle, and a wastegate controls the energy to the turbine, affecting boost pressure and air flow.

  • Starting Supermoto
    STARTING SUPERMOTO Supermoto was originally conceived as something like an all-star game, in which the best riders from the three separate genres of motorcycle racing - road racing, flat track and motocross - could temporarily leave their normal race class to come together and compete for the title of best all-around racer. Today supermoto is a distinct genre of its own and riders in the other classes do not routinely cross over into supermoto. Races are commonly held on road racing or medium-sized go-kart tracks with an off-road section in the infield. Most supermoto race tracks have a tarmac size of 50-75% and the remaining percentage of the course is off-road. The dirt sections are usually constructed of packed clay and feature motocross style obstacles like bermed corners and jumps. Unlike road racing, the emphasis lies on slower speeds on short, technical tracks. Here, where flat-out acceleration and high top-speeds are less common, rider skill can more easily overcome a disparity in machine performance. Riders wear a mixture of road race and off-road equipment; normally road racing leathers and gloves, and motocross helmets and boots. We recommend buying helmets from new which must bear the ACU gold or silver stamp (prices start from around £30). Everything else can easily be picked up online second hand from as little as £10 for boots/gloves and £50 for leathers. The motorcycles used are frequently custom-created combinations of off-road motorcycles and road-racing wheels/tires. Full-size Supermoto-ready bikes start around £2000 second hand.
