Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book presents a novel method for calculating the amount of air entering an automobile engine, a fundamental issue in the analysis of its economic operation. The carburetor is treated as a strictly automatic metering device which ideally proportions air and fuel for optimal combustion. Before this book's groundbreaking approach, researchers determined fuel consumption and relied on the carburetor to maintain the appropriate combustion mixture. However, maximum power output and efficiency demand optimized air-fuel intake. The book's significance lies in its solution to the air metering problem, enabling the accurate determination of volumetric efficiency and the weight of dry air entering the engine. It provides a comprehensive understanding of the theory and operation of orifice meters, addressing the effect of humidity and offering guidance on selecting orifice diameters and constants. This book's insights are particularly valuable for researchers, engineers, and professionals involved in engine testing, optimization, and design, as it empowers them with a precise and reliable method for quantifying air intake, a critical factor in maximizing engine performance and efficiency. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
