  2. Throttle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle

    For a gasoline engine, the throttle most commonly regulates the amount of air and fuel allowed to enter the engine. However, in a gasoline direct injection engine, the throttle regulates only the amount of air allowed to enter the engine. The throttle of a diesel, when present, regulates the air flow into the engine.

  3. Manifold vacuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_vacuum

    The flow of air through the engine is strongly restricted by the throttle, producing a strong vacuum on the engine side of the butterfly valve which will tend to limit the speed of the engine. This phenomenon, known as engine braking , is used to prevent acceleration or even to slow down with minimal or no brake usage (as when descending a long ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Air flow meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_flow_meter

    An air flow meter is a device similar to an anemometer that measures air flow, i.e. how much air is flowing through a tube. It does not measure the volume of the air passing through the tube, it measures the mass of air flowing through the device per unit time, though Thus air flow meters are simply an application of mass flow meters for the ...

  6. Throttle response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle_response

    The advent of concern about fuel economy and emissions had major impacts on engine design. Some of the trade-offs reduced throttle response. Most new cars employ a drive-by-wire system, which includes electronic throttle control and can itself either reduce or increase throttle response (Depending on whether or not it's being employed on a performance car).

  7. Aircraft engine controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_engine_controls

    As the throttle is closed, this pressure is reduced due to restricting the fuel/air mixture available to the engine, i.e. causing it to operate at lower power than it is capable of producing. Oil temperature gauge - Indicates the engine oil temperature. Oil pressure gauge - Indicates the supply pressure of the engine lubricant.

  8. MAP sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAP_sensor

    MAP sensor data can be converted to air mass data by using a second variable coming from an IAT Sensor (intake air temperature sensor). This is called the speed-density method. Engine speed (RPM) is also used to determine where on a look up table to determine fuelling, hence speed-density (engine speed / air density).

  9. Mass flow sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_sensor

    MAF sensor in a 2006-2015 automotive diesel engine. A mass (air) flow sensor (MAF) is a sensor used to determine the mass flow rate of air entering a fuel-injected internal combustion engine. The air mass information is necessary for the engine control unit (ECU) to balance and deliver the correct fuel mass to the engine. Air changes its ...
