Sir Sam Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 For you SVO fans out there I thought you might find this interesting: Modes 2, 3, and 5 were all lower(as pictured). Modes 1 and 11 are mixed bags, with some species being lower than others. Modes 6, 7 and 8 were all higher, by about as much as 2,3 and 5 were lower. I don't have the particulate data right now. Next up in our calibration is a timing sweep to investigate the differences fuel consumption and 5 gas emissions at mode 3. Even though the emissions are better on SVO for mode 3(mode 3 = 2400 rpm 50% load) the fuel consumption is drastically increased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Sam Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 OK, I'm going to be the first to say it......WTF!!!! These are bar graphs from 5 gas emissions testing on SVO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasbulliwagen Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 What is SVO, and why is it important. Not being an @$$, just want to know what youre talking about and why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reson46 Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 SVO = straight vegetable oil I am confused by your terminology. What do gas emissions have to do with these tests? All I see are diesel and SVO tests, not gas. :hmm: Willy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Sam Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 Yup, you guys got it. We are working on a calibration for a JD4045 engine, in addition to the 5 gas we also have PM(Particulate matter) data as well. Right now we are preparing a timing sweep to address our worst fuel consumption point, once we get a feel for how to affect that we will go onto our 5 gas testing for that data. We try and prepare everything carefully before doing the 5 gas testing, it costs $1600 a day(8hrs) to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
