“…The rarer case in which the missing tooth is replaced by an additional one is also accepted [2]. The position pulse generating gear placed on the camshaft has a multitude of configurations, differing from manufacturer to manufacturer, sometimes even from one model to another of the same manufacturer.…”

“…Considering that any other equipment involved in engine management will work synchronously with each engine cycle, the simulator may be equipped with hardware devices and software programs capable to generating other output signals, such as electronic throttle control, fuel-supply control valve for a high-pressure pump in direct injection systems, control for wastegate or bypass valves in the turbocharging systems and controls for variable valve distribution actuating devices. Such complex hardware/software system are present in [2] and [4].…”

Abstract. This simulator was conceived as a software program capable of generating complex control signals, identical to those in the electronic management systems of modern spark ignition or diesel engines. Speed in rpm and engine load percentage defined by throttle opening angle represent the input variables in the simulation program and are graphically entered by two-meter instruments from the simulator central block diagram. The output signals are divided into four categories: synchronization and position of each cylinder, spark pulses for spark ignition engines, injection pulses and, signals for generating the knock window for each cylinder in the case of a spark ignition engine. The simulation program runs in real-time so each signal evolution reflects the real behavior on a physically thermal engine. In this way, the generated signals (ignition or injection pulses) can be used with additionally drivers to control an engine on the test bench.
