Authors Abstract
Content
ELECTRONICS can control the engine combustion cycle by altering the fuel metering systems and/or fuel injection timing of Heavy Duty Trucks.
Precision control based on the particular engine fuel injection requirements may be adapted to specific combustion criteria. Driver performance, however, under certain conditions, can be the most influential fuel economy factor.
The driver performance element and an electronic control system to optimize that element is discussed.
