Abstract
Using a novel, high frequency response FID unit, hydrocarbon measurements in the spark plug gap of a firing gasoline engine have been made. These measurements have been correlated with the pressure development, and a significant correlation was found. The method described can be used on any engine fitted with a modified sparking plug.
