Abstract:
A method is described for controlling fuel injection in an spontaneous ignition engine (1) equipped with an electronically controlled fuel injection system (2) and with an electronic control unit (4) receiving engine quantities comprising the pressure ( P ) in the combustion changer of the engine (1) and closed-loop controlling the fuel injection system (2) on the basis of the pressure ( P ) in the combustion chamber, in which the pressure ( P ) in the combustion chamber is determined as a function of engine kinematic quantities such as the engine speed and the crank angle ( rpm , θ) and of the fuel injection law, which is defined by the quantity of fuel injected ( m c ) and by the crank angle at the start of injection ( SOI ).
Abstract:
The invention describes a virtual pressure sensor for a Common Rail injection system of an endothermic engine (1), the injection system comprising at least one fuel pressure accumulating tank, of the rail type, having an input in fluid communication with a high-pressure pump and a plurality of outputs for feeding corresponding injectors (4) by using pressure regulating means connected and depending on an electronic control unit (9). Advantageously in the invention, the virtual pressure sensor includes a fluid-dynamic model of the accumulating tank (2) suitable to estimate and to obtain fluid pressure values used by the electronic control unit (9) for driving the injection means of the Common Rail injection system.
Abstract:
A pressure holter by oscillometric detection for acquiring and recording maximum and minimum values of arterial pressure, is provided with means of detection and classification of the movement producing an index of the current state of physical exertion in coincidence with the readings of minimum and maximum arterial pressure and with means managing the blood pressure measurements, controlling the execution of the holter functions and of fuzzy logic processing of the readings. A sensor of the internal air pressure of inflation of a pneumatic constriction sleeve worn on an arm of the subject is exploited for detecting movements of the arm and at least a second sensor of movement, fixed to the bust of the patient, is employed.
