Abstract
This paper will present different calibration methods for fuel systems. The pros and cons of each method will be analyzed as follows:
-
Reproducibility/ Accuracy
-
Speed
-
Safety
-
Ease of handling
A computerized calibration cart will be introduced as an optimal solution. It will demonstrate that time reduction by more than 50% can be achieved and that more reliable data (i.e. standard deviation) is obtainable.
