An engine control unit mixing fuel-hydrogen based on microcontroller is proposed, including the system power modular, the sensor signal processing modular, the circuit of controller module, the actuator driving circuit module and the corresponding software system. The design and the control process of each module are introduced. The test results in the bench and roads demonstrate that the system can improve the fuel economy and deduce the emission significantly.

Valid Solution

The calibration of the engine control unit is increased for the development of the whole automotive system. The aim is to calibrate the electronic engine control to match the decreasing emission requirements and increasing fuel economy demands. The reduction of the number of tests on vehicles represents one of the most important requirements for increasing efficiency of the engine calibration process. However, the definition of the design of experiment is not straightforward because the data is not known beforehand, so it is difficult to process and analyse this data to achieve a globally valid model. To reduce time effort and costs the virtual calibration can be a valid solution. This procedure is called software in the loop (SIL) calibration able to develop a process to systematically identify the optimal balance of engine performance, emissions and fuel economy. In this work, a virtual calibration methodology is presented by using a two-stage model to get minimum exhaust emissions of a diesel engine. The data used are from a GT-Power model of a 3L supercharged diesel engine. The model is able to calculate the engine emissions for different engine parameters (such as the start of injection, EGR fraction and rail pressure) and from optimisation process, new injection start maps that reduce pollutant emissions are created.

Car Accidents

Based on data from the Indonesian Traffic Corps by September 2019, the number of car accidents was dominated by rear-hit crashes with 6,966 accidents. Most of these accidents occurred during car convoys. It needs a car-to-car communication to increase driver awareness. One of the technologies that can be applied is Visible Light Communication (VLC) and infrared communication. The transmitted data are the vehicle speed data, throttle position, and brake stepping indicator. The data are obtained by reading the Engine Control Unit (ECU) in the car. The data are packaged from the three data and sent to other cars at day and night using VLC and infrared communication. The experimental results show that in a communication system that uses VLC, data can be exchanged between cars during the day up to 2 meters and at night up to 11 meters. Otherwise, in infrared communication, vehicles can communicate during the day up to 2 meters and at night up to 0.7 meter. The test was also carried out with some conditions such as rain, smoke, passers, and other vehicle lights.

Co Emission

In an attempt to improve the fuel economy and reduce the exhaust emissions of motorcycles, some manufactures have developed commercialized motorcycles equipped with automatic idling-stop and go (AISG) functionality. Even though research efforts devoted to the idling-stop strategy have demonstrated its effectiveness, motorcycles equipped with the AISG device are not popular because the general public still has some concerns about them. This paper aims to evaluate the benefits and feasibility of a commercialized motorcycle with AISG functionality with regard to the public's concerns about fuel economy and emission problems during engine restart transients. In order to verify the accuracy of the analytical results and control for variable driver characteristics, a motorcycle chassis dynamometer was used to recreate the urban driving pattern. Furthermore, the feasibility of fuel-saving and emissions improvement by adjusting fuel-injection signal of the engine control unit (ECU) during engine restart operation was also evaluated. The experimental results showed that the addition of the fuel-injection modulation plus idling-stop strategy can improve the fuel economy rate by up to 12.2% and reduce carbon monoxide (CO) emission by up to 36.95% in comparison with the non-idling stop case.

SHRNUTÍ Byla vyvinuta programovatelna řidici jednotka na platformě CompactRIO s programem vytvořenym v prostředi LabVIEW. Jednotka byla vyvijena jako univerzalni a byla testovana při řizeni maleho zažehoveho motoru YAMAHA YZF R6. Jednotka je dale použitelna pro zažehove motory různe koncepce, přeplňovane i nepřeplňovane. Požadavku na univerzalnost jednotky byl přizpůsoben řidici program, ktery je uspořadan ve vzajemně komunikujicich samostatnych blocich. Zařizeni je rozšiřitelne o dalši I/O moduly, což umožňuje použiti dalšich snimačů, aktuatorů nebo modulů pro komunikaci. Rozhrani pro zesileni vystupů napajejicich zapalovani a vstřikovače bylo vyvinuto pro řizeni motoru YAMAHA YZF R6. Toto zařizeni zaroveň stabilizuje napajeni snimačů motoru a filtruje jejich vystupni signaly. Članek je shrnutim procesu vyvoje řidici jednotky motoru, obsahuje přehled použitych zařizeni, seznamuje s řidicim programem a zkušenostmi z testovani na motoru.
