  2. Vapor lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_lock

    Vapor lock is a problem caused by liquid fuel changing state to vapor while still in the fuel delivery system of gasoline-fueled internal combustion engines.This disrupts the operation of the fuel pump, causing loss of feed pressure to the carburetor or fuel injection system, resulting in transient loss of power or complete stalling.

  3. Nitrous oxide engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_oxide_engine

    Nitrous injection systems may be "dry", where the nitrous oxide is injected separately from fuel, or "wet" in which additional fuel is carried into the engine along with the nitrous. NOS may not be permitted for street or highway use, depending on local regulations. N 2 O use is permitted in certain classes of auto racing. Reliable operation of ...

  4. Manifold injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_injection

    However, single-point injection does not allow forming very precise mixtures required for modern emission regulations, and is thus deemed an obsolete technology in passenger cars. [1] Single-point injection was used extensively on American-made passenger cars and light trucks during 1980–1995, and in some European cars in the early and mid-1990s.

  5. Air-blast injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-blast_injection

    Before the invention of precombustion chamber injection, air-blast injection was the only way a properly working internal air fuel mixture system could be built, required for a Diesel engine. During the 1920s, [ 2 ] air-blast injection was rendered obsolete by superior injection system designs that allowed much smaller but more powerful engines ...

  6. Gasoline direct injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_direct_injection

    Gasoline direct injection (GDI), also known as petrol direct injection (PDI), [1] is a mixture formation system for internal combustion engines that run on gasoline (petrol), where fuel is injected into the combustion chamber. This is distinct from manifold injection systems, which inject fuel into the intake manifold (inlet manifold).

  7. Asphalt: Injection - Wikipedia

    Asphalt: Injection is a racing game developed by Gameloft for the PlayStation Vita and Android. and released in 2011–2012. It was the eighth major game in the Asphalt series. And just like Asphalt 3D , it was published by Konami in Japan and Ubisoft worldwide.

  8. Water injection (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_injection_(engine)

    Bosch has heritage of water injection MW50 design in the past with Daimler-Benz DB 605. Today the manufacture claims up to 5% increase in engine performance, up to 4% decrease in CO 2 emissions and up to 13% improvement in fuel economy. [13] Similar results were reported in "Water Injection - High Power and High Efficiency combined" [14]

  9. Flow injection analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_injection_analysis

    Flow injection analysis (FIA) was first described by Ruzicka and Hansen in Denmark in 1974 and Stewart and coworkers in United States in 1979. FIA is a popular, simple, rapid, and versatile technique which is a well-established position in modern analytical chemistry, and widespread application in quantitative chemical analysis.
