摘要:
In a fuel supply control apparatus for an internal-combustion engine, liquid fuel is vaporized and is supplied to a fuel gas passage leading to an intake air passage. The flow rate of the vaporized fuel flowing through the fuel gas passage is detected, and the flow rate of the fuel is calculated in accordance with the load of the engine. As a result, feedback control of the fuel to be supplied to the engine is carried out so that the detected flow rate of the vaporized fuel is close to the calculated flow rate of the fuel.
摘要:
A method for measuring the flow rate of fluid such as liquified petroleum gas fuel for an automobile fuel. A signal of the fluid flow rate and a signal of the fluid temperature are produced by using the signals from an electric heater and a first, second, and third temperature-dependent resistors in a signal processing circuit. The produced signals are supplied to a computer circuit to carry out modification, linearization, and multiplication by a conversion constant for linearization which is corrected regarding temperature characteristic. The result of calculation in the computer circuit is displayed on a display device.

In a direct-heated flow measuring apparatus including an electric heater of a film resistor type and a temperature-detecting resistor for detecting the temperature within a passage, the flow rate thereof is measured by a sensing circuit. The temperatures of the electric heater and the temperature of the temperature-detecting resistor are compared. The measuring operation of the sensing circuit is stopped when the temperature within the passage is abnormal as indicated by this comparison.

A forward flow region in which forward intake air currents are produced and a reverse flow region in which reverse intake air currents are produced are formed in the throttle bore of a throttle body 3 included in an internal-combustion engine, and the boundary between those regions extends below a throttle valve 5. A fuel vapor control system for an internal-combustion engine has a purge tube 13 joined to the throttle body 3 to supply fuel vapor into the throttle body 3 and is provided with an opening 22 which acts as a purge port. The opening 22 is positioned at a distance from the inner surface 21 of the throttle body 3 defining a throttle bore on the boundary between the forward intake air currents and the reverse intake air currents. Fuel vapor jetted through the opening 22 of the purge tube 13 into the throttle bore flows toward an intake manifold 2, diffusing into both the forward intake air currents and the reverse intake air currents from the boundary between the intake air currents. Accordingly, the fuel vapor is distributed evenly through the intake manifold 2 to the cylinders, so that increase in the difference in air-fuel ratio between the cylinders can be suppressed. The purge port can relatively easily be formed, because the purge tube 13 provided with the purge port is fitted closely in a bore formed in the throttle body 3.
摘要:
A laser type ignition device for an internal combustion engine includes a laser oscillator mounted in the internal combustion engine so as to focus its laser beam on an air-fuel mixture supplied into the combustion chamber, a pressure sensor for detecting pressure in the combustion chamber, a power source for the laser oscillator and a control unit for controlling the power source to supply the laser oscillator with the current whose amount changes according to the pressure in the combustion chamber. The power of the laser beam increases as the pressure in the combustion chamber decreases to completely ignite the air-fuel mixture.

An injector has an orifice plate formed with plural orifices. At a radially outward position of the orifice plate is disposed a wall at least partially. It is preferable that the wall be disposed at a lower position in the direction of gravity. In the wall is formed a guide hole toward an area on the orifice plate where a strong negative pressure is developed. A portion of fuel injected from the injector adheres as adhered fuel to the orifice plate or the wall. Under the action of a negative pressure on the orifice plate the guide hole sucks in the adhered fuel and returns it onto the surface of the orifice plate. The adhered fuel flows from the wall onto the surface of the orifice plate and again joins a fuel jet injected from the orifices. By utilizing a negative pressure developed near the plural orifices, the adhered fuel can be recovered and again injected. Consequently, it is possible to decrease the amount of adhered fuel.

An air-fuel ratio control system for an internal combustion engine of an automotive vehicle is provided which is designed to enrich an air-fuel mixture when an engine load is varied by use of an air conditioner installed in the vehicle for ensuring optimum emission control. The air-fuel ratio control system includes an air conditioner condition determining unit which determines drive torque of an air conditioner compressor as a parameter indicative of a variation in engine load and modifies an air-fuel ratio to the rich side according to an increase in drive torque of the air conditioner compressor.
