  2. 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 intake manifold of an engine. It is a measure of the amount of restriction of ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Carburetor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carburetor

    The main disadvantage of basing a carburetor's operation on Bernoulli's Principle is that being a fluid dynamic device, the pressure reduction in a venturi tends to be proportional to the square of the intake airspeed. The main fuel jets are small and fuel flow is limited mainly by the fuel's viscosity so that the fuel flow tends to be ...

  5. Manifold injection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_injection

    Alternatively, a manifold vacuum sensor can be used. The manifold vacuum sensor signal, the throttle position, and the crankshaft speed can then be used by the engine control unit to calculate the correct amount of fuel. In modern engines, a combination of all these systems is used. [5]

  6. Crankcase ventilation system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankcase_ventilation_system

    The intake manifold vacuum, with wide open throttle, is lower in these conditions, which causes the PCV valve to open and the crankcase gases flow to the intake system. [13] The greater flow rate of intake air during these conditions means that a greater quantity of blow-by gases can be added to the intake system without compromising the ...

  7. Throttle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throttle

    When a throttle is wide open, the intake manifold is usually close to ambient atmospheric pressure. When the throttle is partially closed, manifold vacuum drops further below ambient pressure. The power output of a diesel engine is controlled by regulating the quantity of fuel that is injected into the cylinder.
