Improving performance parameters of combustion engine for racing purposes. Res. Agr. Eng., 60: 83–91. Mechanical parts of stock engine have a performance reserve which could be utilized when the engine is used under the race conditions. Especially normal turbocharged engines have their performance parameters designed to drive in traffic, where a good flexibility, reliability, fuel consumption and a long service life is required. It is possible to utilize the whole power of the engine, when changing or modifying some of its external parts and achieve better performance parameters without modifying or changing internal engine components. Performed changes must be realized thought- fully and on the admittable level, so the engine and other drive train components would not be damaged. In our study we design several changes of external parts of engine which have a significant impact on the improvement of engine performance parameters. Their contribution has been verified in practice by an engine dynamometer. Keywords: engine; performance parameters; turbocharger; roller dynamometer It is generally known that the engine perfor- – decrease of intake air temperature (behind tur- mance is substantially dependent on the amount of bocharger), air (oxygen), which enters to the combustion cham- – reduction of mechanical and airflow losses, ber. Turbocharged engines are using turbochargers – optimization of intake and exhaust manifolds, or compressors to increase the amount of induced – optimization of combustion processes by sophis- air.

A hybrid electrical bus employs both a turbo diesel engine and an electric motor to drive the vehicle in different speed-torque scenarios. The cooling system for such a vehicle is particularly power costing because it needs to dissipate heat from not only the engine, but also the intercooler and the motor. An electronic control unit (ECU) has been designed with a single chip computer, temperature sensors, DC motor drive circuit, and optimized control algorithm to manage the speeds of several fans for efficient cooling using a nonlinear fan speed adjustment strategy. Experiments suggested that the continuous operating performance of the ECU is robust and capable of saving 15% of the total electricity comparing with ordinary fan speed control method. 1.

  • Electronic Diesel Control (Edc)
    Module -2 ELECTRONIC DIESEL CONTROL (EDC) Electronic control of a diesel engine allows fuel-injection parameters to be varied precisely for different conditions. This is the only means by which a modern diesel engine is able to satisfy the many demands placed upon it. The EDC (Electronic Diesel Control) system is subdivided into three areas, “Sensors and desired-value generators”, “Control unit”, and “Actuators”. System overview: Requirements Present-day development in the field of diesel technology is focused on lowering fuel consumption and exhaust-gas emissions (NOx, CO, HC, particulate), while increasing engine performance and torque. In recent years this has led to an increase in the popularity of the direct-injection (DI) diesel engine, which uses much higher fuel-injection pressures than indirect-injection (IDI) engines with whirl or pre chamber systems. Due to the more efficient mixture formation and the absence of flow-related losses between the whirl chamber/pre chamber and the main combustion chamber, the fuel consumption of direct-injection engines is 10...20% lower than that achieved by indirect-injection designs. In addition, diesel engine development has been influenced by the high levels of comfort and convenience demanded in modern cars. Noise levels, too, are subject to more and more stringent requirements. Demand of fuel-injection and engine-management systems • High fuel-injection pressures • Pre-injection and, where applicable, secondary injection • Variation of injected fuel quantity, charge air pressure, and start of injection to suit operating conditions • Temperature-dependent excess-fuel quantity for starting • Control of idle speed independent of engine load • Controlled exhaust-gas recirculation (cars) • Cruise control • Tight tolerances for injection duration and injected fuel quantity, and maintenance of high precision over the service life of the system (long- term performance) Operating concept The injected fuel quantity is actually determined by a number of different influencing variables.
