Single cylinder Four stroke VCR Multi‐fuel with Open ECU for Petrol mode - Computerized
Description
The setup consists of single cylinder, four stroke, VCR (Variable Compression Ratio) Research engine connected to eddy current dynamometer. It is provided with necessary instruments for combustion pressure, crank‐ angle, airflow, fuel flow, temperatures and load measurements. These signals are interfaced to computer through high speed data acquisition device. The set up has stand‐alone panel box consisting of air box, twin fuel tank, manometer, fuel measuring unit, transmitters for air and fuel flow measurements, process indicator and piezo powering unit. Rotameters are provided for cooling water and calorimeter water flow measurement. In petrol mode engine works with programmable Open ECU, Throttle position sensor (TPS), fuel pump, ignition coil, fuel spray nozzle, trigger sensor etc. The setup enables study of VCR engine performance for both Diesel and Petrol mode and study of ECU programming. Engine performance study includes brake power, indicated power, frictional power, BMEP, IMEP, brake thermal efficiency, indicated thermal efficiency, Mechanical efficiency, volumetric efficiency, specific fuel consumption, Air fuel ratio, heat balance and combustion analysis.

Software
EngineSoft is Labview based software package developed by Apex Innovations Pvt. Ltd. for engine performance monitoring system. EngineSoft can serve most of the engine testing application needs including monitoring, reporting, data entry, data logging. The software evaluates power, efficiencies, fuel consumption and heat release. It is configurable as per engine set up. Various graphs are obtained at different operating condition. While on line testing of the engine in RUN mode necessary signals are scanned, stored and presented in graph. Stored data file is accessed to view the data graphical and tabular formats. The results and graphs can be printed. The data in excel format can be used for further analysis.
Instrumentation
Product is supplied with best quality instruments. The components like Combustion pressure sensor, Crank angle sensor, Fuelflow transmitter and High speed data acquisition device are of MNC grades.
