Artificial Intelligence Industrial Engineering Systems Design Transportation Optimize Fuel Map ANN ECM Internal Combustion Engine O2 sensor Fuel maps are utilized by the fuel injection system as a guide for accurate delivery of fuel under a specified load. A fuel map is determined by the manufacturer and usually not manipulated. This research involves exhaust gas oxygen data collection using an original equipment engine control module (ECM), artificial neural network (ANN) modeling, response surface generation that will act as the new fuel map, implementing the map into the ECM, and testing. ANN modeling is used first to predict volumetric efficiency (VE) values in the fuel map, then used to optimize the VE values based on the air to fuel ratio. The results are then compared with an alternative optimization technique and the original equipment fuel map. Optimization of the fuel map will provide physical performance, economic, and environmental gains. Applying this methodology would allow the fuel map to be updated using little expert knowledge. 2010-09-23 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1282143527 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1282143527 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
