Abstract

The fuel efficiency and engine durability, besides the taxes added to pollution, are nowadays some of the most important concerns in the mind of vehicle owners. Lubrication and fuel consumption influences the pollution level. Engine’s operating temperature, load, and speed, and fuel injected quantity, affect the output performances. The present work outlines the research results regarding the innovative methods for fuel consumption measurements in diesel engines with electronic control module. The modern cars have more than one electronic system for engine control, on-board data management and other operating features. In order to efficiently use all the available data first they have to be monitored. Optimizing the fuel consumption and engine thermal efficiency, as well as the reduction of friction forces due to a better lubrication is a desirable goal for the majority of motor vehicle’s owners and engineers. Improving the fuel economy leads to a financial supplementary gain.
