NO and NOx tracking

NORA: a way to control NOx emissions produced by combustion

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are pollutants produced during combustion by combination at high temperature of oxygen and nitrogen present in the air. Controlling their formation is an important research field for the transport industry since a significant reduction in NOx at source may potentially make it possible to reduce the complexity and cost of pollution abatement systems. In the framework of

Injection advance map generated with CRMT tool

Embedded control system strategy characterization tool by CRMT

By means of a simple vehicle instrumentation, the system developed by CRMT (Research center for thermal machines) allows characterizing, in real time, parameters of the engine such as fuel injection timing (and the spark advance for controlled ignition engine), injection duration and air/fuel ratio in real driving conditions. A device for rapid acquisition of the
