I C Engine

Item Name

Engine Test Setup (Computerised)(238ECU)

The setup consists of two cylinder, four stroke, CRDI Diesel engine connected to eddy current / hydraulic type dynamometer for loading. It is provided with necessary instruments for combustion pressure and crank-angle measurements. These signals are interfaced to computer through data acquisition device for Pθ-PV diagrams. Provision is also made for interfacing airflow, fuel flow, temperatures and load measurement. The set up has stand-alone panel box consisting of air box, fuel tank, manometer, fuel measuring unit, transmitters for air and fuel flow measurements, process indicator and engine indicator. Rotameters are provided for cooling water and calorimeter water flow measurement.

CRDI engine works with programmable Open ECU for Diesel injection, fuel injector, common rail with rail pressure sensor and pressure regulating valve, crank position sensor, fuel pump and wiring harness. The setup enables study of CRDI engine performance with programmable ECU at different EGR, different fuel, Blends and PFI system.

The setup enables study of engine performance for brake power, indicated power, frictional power, BMEP, IMEP, brake thermal efficiency, indicated thermal efficiency, Mechanical efficiency, volumetric efficiency, specific fuel consumption, A/F ratio and heat balance.

Labview based Engine Performance Analysis software package Enginesoft is provided for on line performance evaluation.
