The valve helps counter anything the driver may do to put
extra load on the engine, such as turn on the air conditioning, sound systems, lights, etc..
During normal operation, the air conditioning system constantly cycles on and off, changing the amount
of load on the engine.
The constant operation of this belt - driven system put a
tremendous load on the engine, which resulted in loss of engine horsepower, fuel efficiency and increased vehicle emissions.
One advantage is that the electric power needed to control the steering puts
less load on the engine than a conventional variable - assist hydraulic pump.
While S3 models gain a small power increase of 7kW and 20Nm, the full increase will not translate to Australian cars as they feature Audi's hot - country engine mapping, which
reduces load on the engine at high temperatures.
The system typically monitors driving style (in terms of how long is the throttle open for any given duration of driving), air intake and external temperatures, coolant temperatures and variations and engine timing (determined
by load on the engine and octane of fuel).
MTM's stainless steel high - performance exhaust system and free - flow metal catalytic convertors lower back pressure, which not only releases more power, but also lessens the
thermal load on the engine and cooling system.
The lack of an electrical ignition system also reduces the
parasitic load on the engine, as the engine does not have to produce the necessary electricity to ignite the fuel.
Not sure if this is related to the stalling issue, but it may be putting additional
load on the engine when the vehicle is...
They will place
various loads on the engine during this stage of the diagnostic process to find out if the PCM is able to maintain a normal engine idle speed.
There's a new regenerative braking system on offer too, which converts kinetic energy to electricity and stores it in capacitors which can then be used to power the car's electrics, thus
saving load on the engine and reducing fuel consumption.
As a further fuel - saving technology, Honda fits the, um, Fit with electric power steering, lessening the
general load on the engine.
The regenerative braking system efficiently converts kinetic energy to electricity during deceleration, stores it in capacitors and then uses it to power the vehicle's electric equipment, thereby
reducing load on the engine and saving fuel.
Further fuel saving is achieved by using both an engine start stop function and also cylinder deactivation - which sees one bank of cylinders switch off when there is
less load on the engine.
Also, on dual clutch gearboxes, both clutches are disengaged when at standstill, and therefore, there is no
extra load on the engine.
Putting that kinetic energy to work would reduce
the load on the engine.
Idle will get crazy low if I put
any load on the engine (brake or power steering).
When idling,
the load on the engine parts is so low that you may easily cause more «damage» during normal driving, e.g. when approaching red line for a moment or something.
This leads us to your original question, the fact of whether stabbing the pedal to wide open throttle (WOT) with
no load on the engine will cause problems for the engine.
If you have an poor cooling system (e.g. the cooling fan is inoperative, or the radiator / condenser airflow is blocked) this too would place too much
load on the engine, although I wouldn't expect this to occur immediately when you turn on the A / C, rather it would take five or ten minutes in hot weather.
The additional load of flashing your high beams added to the amperage draw which in turn added to
the load on the engine turning the alternator.
When in D while stopped, the engine RPMs are lower (because the transmission and brakes are applying
a load on the engine), while in N, the RPMs are always a little bit higher because the engine has no load against it.
it basically sounds like this txv valve regulates the two sides of the ac system (in the way i used to think the expansion valve did), but
the load on the engine would be basically the same unless it has a way to disengage the compressor, right?
On the bus likely what happens is that in neutral the input shaft is spinning freely because it isn't connected to the stationary wheels once he put the vehicle in drive the input shaft was locked to the rotation of the wheels (none) meaning that the fluid is now pushing against an immovable object which in turn increases
the load on the engine.
The difference being there is no torque converter which is putting
a load on the engine while you are in drive but stopped.
This reduces
the load on the engine and makes for fuel savings of around 0.15 litres per 100 kilometres according to the NEDC standard, and up to 0.2 litres per 100 km in city traffic with its frequent overrun and braking phases.
When the air conditioning cycles off,
the load on the engine is decreased and the amount of engine vacuum is increased.
The air conditioning system places
a load on the engine which would cause the idle speed to fall if there were no automatic intervention.
When the AC is on it puts more of
a load on the engine.
In the new 7 - speed, the lower gears are more closely spaced, improving in - gear acceleration to aid in overtaking maneuvers, while the higher gears are lengthened to reduce
loading on the engine and maximize economy.
The ACC unit also helps in lowering
the load on the engine and will help you in getting good efficiency figures.
Kia's motor - driven power steering (MDPS), which delivers assistance only when needed to reduce
the load on the engine and save fuel, offers just the right degree of help and weighting in all circumstances.
It features innovative Neutral Control, which shifts the transmission from «D' to «N» when the car has been stopped for a few seconds, reducing
the load on the engine and, therefore, fuel consumption.
When the car is in gear,
the load on the engine is sufficient to prevent the malfunction.
A variable - flow oil pump optimizes oil flow to the transmission's moving parts while minimizing
the load on the engine.
The LT1 also uses a variable output oil pump that helps reduce
the load on the engine, a plastic intake manifold with tuned runners, and cast aluminum exhaust manifolds designed to act like headers to reduce backpressure from exhaust flow.
What this results in are more gear changes as
the loads on the engine increase.
During a component failure, this circuitry logs the time with sensors detecting rpm, coolant temperature, ambient temperature,
load on engine, gear selection, and other factors that were occurring when the part failed.
A computer operating the valve train would turn off either two or four of the cylinders as
the load on the engine decreased.
