  2. Engine control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_control_unit

    The Ford EEC (Electronic Engine Control) system, which utilized the Toshiba TLCS-12 microprocessor, went into mass production in 1975. [ 7 ] The first Bosch engine management system was the Motronic 1.0 , which was introduced in the 1979 BMW 7 Series (E23) [ 8 ] This system was based on the existing Bosch Jetronic fuel injection system, to ...

  3. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. [1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure , temperature , and liquid level.

  4. Variable valve lift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_valve_lift

    Variable valve lift (VVL) is an automotive piston engine technology which varies the height a valve opens in order to improve performance, fuel economy or emissions. There are two main types of VVL: discrete, which employs fixed valve lift amounts, and continuous, which is able to vary the amount of lift.

  5. Proportional–integral–derivative controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional–integral...

    Tuning a control loop is the adjustment of its control parameters (proportional band/gain, integral gain/reset, derivative gain/rate) to the optimum values for the desired control response. Stability (no unbounded oscillation) is a basic requirement, but beyond that, different systems have different behavior, different applications have ...

  6. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    The hydraulic actuators respond to changes of pressure or flow and will open/close the valve. Automatic control valves do not require an external power source, meaning that the fluid pressure is enough to open and close them. Flow control valves, a type of automatic control valve, regulate fluid flow by maintaining a predetermined flow rate ...

  7. Valvetrain - Wikipedia

    Cutaway of a dual overhead camshaft engine 1969 AMC V8 overhead valve engine. The rocker cover has been removed, so elements of the pushrods, rocker arms, valve springs, and valves are visible. A valvetrain is a mechanical system that controls the operation of the intake and exhaust valves in an internal combustion engine. [1]

  8. Hydraulic tappet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_tappet

    through a pushrod which actuates the valve via a rocker mechanism (in an overhead valve (OHV) engine); via direct contact with the valve stem or rocker arm (in an overhead camshaft (OHC) configuration). Oil under constant pressure is supplied to the lifter via an oil channel, through a small hole in the lifter body. When the engine valve is ...

    All records of Oil Detection Monitoring Equipment must be stored on board ships for no less than 3 years. [3] Oil Discharge Monitoring systems today consist of a computing unit that is installed in the cargo control room. The computer unit control and receives data from other ODME components. [7]
