    BMW — DISA (DIfferenzierte SaugAnlage – "Differential Air Intake"), two stage: M42, M44, M54, N62TU, three stage: N52; DIVA (continuously variable length runners): N62, is the world's first continuously variable length intake manifold. [2] Citroën — XM 3,0 V6.24 (200 hp) used during 1991 to 1997, ZX Coupe 2.0 16v XU10J4 engine.

  3. AMC computerized engine control - Wikipedia

    The CEC also controlled ignition timing using information from the fuel-control section and an engine knock sensor on the intake manifold. The CEC module itself (the most common version of which is the "AMC MCU Super-D") was manufactured for AMC by Ford Motor Company, and worked with a Duraspark ignition system. Although built by Ford, the CEC ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Components_of_jet_engines

    The air intake (inlet U.S. [6]) is an aerodynamic duct extending from an entry lip to the engine fan/compressor. For supersonic intakes with variable geometry it is called an intake system, referring to the need for shock-wave and internal duct flow management using variable position surfaces (ramps or cones) and bypass doors. [7]

  5. Acoustic Control Induction System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_Control_Induction...

    The ACIS/TVIS System. Acoustic Control Induction System, or ACIS, is an implementation of a variable-length intake manifold system designed by Toyota.. Simply put, the ACIS system uses a single intake air control valve located in the intake to vary the length of the intake tract in order to optimize power and torque, as well as provide better fuel efficiency and reduce intake "roar".

  6. Engine tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_tuning

    Engine tuning is the adjustment or modification of the internal combustion engine or Engine Control Unit (ECU) to yield optimal performance and increase the engine's power output, economy, or durability. These goals may be mutually exclusive; an engine may be de-tuned with respect to output power in exchange for better economy or longer engine ...

  7. Diverterless supersonic inlet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diverterless_supersonic_inlet

    J-10B with a diverterless air intake displayed at Airshow China 2018. A diverterless supersonic inlet (DSI) is a type of jet engine air intake used by some modern combat aircraft to control air flow into their engines. It consists of a "bump" and a forward-swept inlet cowl, which work together to divert boundary layer airflow away from the ...

  8. Tumble flap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumble_Flap

    The set point of the tumble flap is adjusted by an electrical or vacuum-activated servo mechanism which is under the control of the engine management system.Tumble flaps are open or closed depending on engine operating states (related to engine speed and load), engine temperatures, combustion modes (characterized by air-fuel ratio), catalytic converter heating or cold start active or inactive etc.

  9. T-VIS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-VIS

    Toyota Variable Induction System, or T-VIS, is a variable intake system designed by Toyota to improve the low-end performance of multi-valve engines. [1]T-VIS is intended to improve the low-end torque of high-performance, four-stroke internal combustion engines - by changing the geometry of the intake manifold according to the engine rotation speed.
