Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: '''Injector measurement''' I was interested in injector opening/closing time regarding to flyback setups. All of the below measurements made on a 12 Ohm Hi-Z injector dry -without fuel pressure-, and PowerFlyback installed inside the ECU. No PWM-ing was enabled, pulse width is ~14ms. '''NEWS 2007.01.22''' I've put together a flowbench-setup http://quasar.dynaweb.hu/~lezsi/vems/flowpad-small.jpg First tests showed that injector opening time increased slightly according to the fuel pressure introduced (3 bars). No flow measurement data yet. Question: How can I force GenBoard to a specific pulsewidth? -Tried "mxofemxofemxp05mxp05" and similar, but no effect at all. I would use a soundcard ElectronicDesign/TriggerSignalGenerator with 60-2 or similar pattern, and use "cranking RPM" (both low-temp and high-temp values set to same pulsewidth). you can bump up cranking_thresh, but best to apply 290 RPM or similar. Take care (and have multiple fire extinguishers at hand). ---- Voltage was 12.1-12.2V, voltage/current measurements were made after a 0.3Ohms resistance, so test setup is like: +12.2V____[0.3Ohms]____*Measurement*____[injector]____INJ-OUT The results: http://quasar.dynaweb.hu/~lezsi/vems/3flyback.gif Red channel means measurement voltage (or current). Blue channel means mechanical movement/noise. *1. graph is one open-hold-close pulse with '''no external flyback'''. Closing time is '''1.7ms''' *2. graph is similar open-hold-close pulse with '''18V Zener flyback'''. Closing time is '''~0.95ms''' *3. graph is similar open-hold-close pulse with '''30V transient diode flyback'''. Closing time is '''0.9ms''' -all of them includes internal PowerFlyback- It's visible on the red channel that after opening (about 1ms later) current has a pulsation which shows the movement of injector iron core. At the same time mechanical noise started (blue channel). At closing phase there's not visible current-pulse in red channel but a spike goes well over starting (+12V) voltage which is the inductive "kick-back" or flyback current. Blue channel's mechanical noise shows here the exact position of mechanical injector closing. As my movement/noise detection (knock sensor) was nearly installed on the injector it's coil slightly picked up injector current, so on the blue channel it's also visible when injector current switched on/off (a single spike before noise). http://quasar.dynaweb.hu/~lezsi/vems/inj_knock3.jpg Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ...
