TECHNOLOGIES USE IN AUTOMOBILE

HONDA ECO TECHNOLOGY:-

In keeping with its strategic approach of Mileage Up for maximizing customer satisfaction, Honda launched the all new Honda Eco technology in 2013, making the Most Fuel Efficient 2W in India!

The new Honda Eco Technology boosts fuel efficiency of Honda's products resulting in a Dream Mileage.

This revolutionary mileage benchmark is yet another milestone from Honda.

Forming the crux of the revolutionary Honda Eco Technology is the trio of improved combustion, significantly reduced friction and optimized transmission in Honda engine:

Reduced friction by offset crank, significant weight reduction of reciprocating parts, low tension piston ring and improved bearing oil seal.

Improved combustion with highly ignitable nickel spark plug and optimized inlet port.

By optimizing Pulley converter ratio & driving force, the power has been maintained & mileage has been increased.

TRIPLE SPARK TECHNOLOGY :-

Along with the announcement of the new Pulsar 200NS,came a new technology named Triple Spark technology. Which is being used in the new bike. In simple words, the triple spark technology is nothing but a engine with 3 spark plugs housed in it.

To make use of 3 spark plugs, the pulsar engine houses a pent roof combustion chamber which in turn allows to house 3 spark plugs in the engine chamber. Out of the three plugs, the primary plug is the center one and is mounted in an angle and enters the chamber at the top-center. The other two secondary plugs are mounted below, each opposite each other and one of them being vertically underneath the primary plug.

The secondary plugs fires a bit after the primary one has fired and the timings are controlled by the ECU depending on various parameters like throttle position, engine revs,load on engine and many other stuffs. According to Bajaj, these plugs gain a advantage in low-rev riding condition where it extracts the best economy.Compared to KTM Duke 200 in similar conditions it gives as much as 10-13kmpl more,however the difference vanishes at higher revs and high speed.

MPFI TECHNOLOGY:-

MPFI means – Multi-point Fuel-Injection system.

The term MPFI is used to specify a technology used in Gasoline/petrol Engines. 

For Diesel Engines, there is a similar technology called CRDI.

MPFI System is a system which uses a small computer or microchip, to control the Car’s Engine. 

A Petrol car’s engine usually has three or more cylinders or fuel burning zones. So in case of an MPFI engine, there is one fuel –injector installed near each cylinder, that is why they call it Multi-point (more than one points) Fuel Injection.

MPFI emerged an Intelligent way to do what the Carburetor does. In MPFI system, each cylinder has one injector (which makes it multi-point).

Each of these Injectors are controlled by one central car computer. This computer is a small micro-processor, which keeps telling each Injector about how much petrol and at what time it needs to inject near the cylinder so that only the required amount of petrol goes into the cylinder at the right moment.
