Mechatronic System of the Injection of Ethanol in an Intake Manifold of a Diesel Engine

Article Preview

Abstract:

This research was carried out with an Audi-80 turbo diesel engine that has a supplementary ethanol feed to air intake. The obtained results allowed for a mathematical expression to get a description of the optimal ethanol supply, which ensures the maximum heat efficiency coefficient for different engine working conditions.
