  2. Manifold injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_injection

    Intake air throttling changes the amount of air sucked into the engine, which means that if a stoichiometric air-fuel mixture is desired, the amount of injected fuel has to be changed along with the intake air throttling. To do so, manifold injection systems have at least one way to measure the amount of air that is currently being sucked into ...

  3. Air-line fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-line_fitting

    One side is connected to a flexible supply hose; the other may be attached to a manifold, valve, tool, or another hose. A female coupler is used on the supply side, and a male nipple is used on the receiving side. Fitting profiles have identifiable geometry on the male end, but care must be taken to use a compatible coupler.

  4. MAP sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAP_sensor

    The way they do this is during a deceleration of the vehicle when there is low absolute pressure in the intake manifold (i.e., a high vacuum present in the intake manifold relative to the outside air) the powertrain control module (PCM) will open the EGR valve and then monitor the MAP sensor's values. If the EGR is functioning properly, the ...

  5. Emergency Air Breather - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_Air_Breather

    These air manifolds are located throughout the submarine. While connected to a manifold, the wearer of the EAB can breathe and can move about within a few feet of the manifold. To move any farther, the wearer must disconnect from the manifold, at which time the wearer cannot breathe, and locate another manifold with which to connect.

  6. Inlet manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlet_manifold

    An inlet manifold or intake manifold (in American English) is the part of an internal combustion engine that supplies the fuel/air mixture to the cylinders. [1] The word manifold comes from the Old English word manigfeald (from the Anglo-Saxon manig [many] and feald [repeatedly]) and refers to the multiplying of one (pipe) into many.

  7. Riemannian connection on a surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemannian_connection_on_a...

    Connections on a surface can be defined in a variety of ways. The Riemannian connection or Levi-Civita connection [9] is perhaps most easily understood in terms of lifting vector fields, considered as first order differential operators acting on functions on the manifold, to differential operators on sections of the frame bundle. In the case of ...

  8. Manifold vacuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_vacuum

    Manifold vacuum, or engine vacuum in a petrol engine is the difference in air pressure between the engine's intake manifold and Earth's atmosphere. Manifold vacuum is an effect of a piston's movement on the induction stroke and the airflow through a throttle in the intervening carburetor or throttle body leading to the intake manifold. It is a ...

  9. Crankcase ventilation system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_ventilation_system

    This mixture of air and crankcase gases then exits, often via another simple baffle, screen, or mesh to exclude oil mist, through the PCV valve and into the intake manifold. On some PCV systems, this oil baffling takes place in a discrete replaceable part called the 'oil separator'.
