The achievement of electronic-based motorcycle engine or Fuel Injection (FI) has better capability or power compared to conventional system vehicles. This research aims to determine the performance difference of using racing electronic control unit (ECU) compared to standard ECU of an automatic motorcycle. The experiment was carried out on a Honda Vario 125cc motorcycle manufactured in 2013. The research method is experimental research and uses descriptive statistic method. Research findings inform that the maximum torque of the standard ECU is 16.63 Nm at 3500 rpm, and the maximum power is 6.36 KW at 4500 rpm. The racing ECU (Iquteche) has a maximum torque of 22.42 Nm at 2500 rpm, and maximum power of 7.70 kW. The apparent increase in torque is around 36.58 % and in power is around 33.9 %. It can be concluded that the Iquteche ECU provides a more optimized engine performance on an automatic motorcycle.Prestasi mesin sepeda motor berbasis elektronik atau Fuel Injection (FI) memiliki kemampuan atau tenaga yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan kendaraan sistem konvensional.

In the current scenario of automotive industries, it is much challenging for the research and developers to develop updated engines/vehicles to satisfy the proposed demands of environmental policy levels. To achieve the expected demands of emissions coming out from an engine exhaust not only with the help of converters in the exhaust pipe line but also the emissions should be controlled during burning of fuel with air in the ignition chamber itself. The controlled combustion of fuel and air requires not only the control fuel injection timing with duration of injection and tune up of the complete fuel injection system with hardware components of ECU but also requires the control of ignition timing. The complete electronic control for petrol engine with direct injection unit is required to communicate between PC and an engine. CAN with SPI interface is used to communicate the electronic control unit with engine

Due to the fact that it is generally difficult to accurately calculate the nonlinear section of flow characteristics curve of small injection pulse width of electronic control injector, it is impossible for electronic control unit (ECU) to accurately control fuel injection quantity when the small engine such as motorcycle is under a working condition of idle speed or small load. This paper introduces the principle and method to make a fitting for flow characteristics of nonlinear section in the developed software system in details. Take the electronic control injector of motorcycle as an example, the programming method combined with LabVIEW and MATLAB is utilized to make a fitting treatment for accurate fuel injection quantity obtained via measuring single-chip microcomputer through Smoothing Spline method, so as to obtain the flow characteristics of small injection pulse width and normal injection pulse width of electronic control injector of motorcycle.

The advancement in embedded systems, which includes the mass deployment of internet-connected electronics, allows the concept of Internet of Things (IoT), to become a reality. This paper discusses one example of how an internet-connected embedded system is utilized in an automotive system. An Electronic Control Unit (ECU), which functions as a control unit in a fuel injection system, are equipped with Wi-Fi capability and installed on 110cc motorcycle. The ECU is connected to multiple sensors that is used by the ECU as part of control system, as well as giving raw data in real time to the server by using Wi-Fi as the communication medium. The server will accumulate data transmitted from ECU by using MQTT protocol, chosen due to its minimal data profile. The data can be visualized through web portal, or opened by any other web-enabled devices. The data collected may also be used later for any other purposes, such as On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) system, etc.

Abstract Diesel fueled generators are widely used for power generation in remote and/or off-grid communities. In such communities, local organic waste streams can be used to generate biogas which can be used to replace diesel used by diesel generators to lower fuel cost and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Diesel powered generators can be easily retrofitted with a biogas dosing line in the engine intake to introduce biogas, but appropriate optimization would be of great help to further improve generator performance and reduce GHG emissions. The objective of this research is to demonstrate simplified optimization methods that can reduce GHG emissions (carbon dioxide and methane) from such retrofitted dual-fuel engines under various biogas compositions. The study was conducted on a modern 30 kilowatt (kW) generator using an electronically controlled, four-stroke, four-cylinder, direct injection, turbo-charged diesel engine. The engine was operated with the factory electronic control unit (ECU) and a programmable ECU which allowed for control of the fuel injections and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve. Biogas was simulated by using natural gas (with more than 95% methane by volume) which was diluted with either carbon dioxide or nitrogen. This study consisted of two areas. The first one was the comparison of the engine performance when operating with biogas using the factory ECU and the programmable ECU with user optimized fuel injection. The second one was the influence of volume fraction of carbon dioxide or nitrogen in the biogas. The test results reinforced the importance of optimizing the diesel injections when the engine was operated in the biogas-diesel dual-fuel mode to ensure complete combustion and achieve a reduction in GHG emissions. Increasing nitrogen fraction had a minimal effect on the emissions, but increasing carbon dioxide fraction caused the NOx and methane emissions to decrease, and the indicated thermal efficiency to increase.

Most motorcycles in developing countries use carburetor systems as the fuel delivery method especially for models with the cubic capacity of less than 125cc. However, small gasoline fuelled engines operating using carburetor system suffer from low operating efficiency, waste of fuel and produce higher level of hazardous emissions to the environment. In this study, an electronic control unit (ECU) is designed and simulated for a retrofit fuel injection (FIS) system. The ECU is targeted to have a simple design, reliable and offers all of the necessary functions of the modern ECU. The simulation results shows that the designed ECU can determine the injection period as close to the proposed value and can drive the injector efficiently based on the generated PWM pulse.

Nowadays, solution of fuel injection is the best way for design of fuel economy vehicle while mechanical improvement has almost reached its limit. This article shows result of the research and making the fuel injection electronic control unit (ECU) used for two annually contests named Honda EMC and Shell ECO-marathon. The control circuit is designed and coded with Arduino Mega, sensors and actuators equipped in popular cars. The circuit also allows users to change the fuel injection map and the ignition timing map to suit ECO vehicle, its necessary data help driver to have better seeing and adjusting during contest time. This permit contestant teams to modify base on their design and showed data can help contest process become more optimized and simply.
